Poultry Slatted Floor (Manure Dropping Grid) Introduction
The slatted floor effectively separates birds from manure, keeping the house dry and clean—reducing disease risk and serving as a basic component in modern poultry housing.
1. Material
Common types include hot-dip galvanized wire mesh and high-strength engineering plastic (PP/ABS). Galvanized mesh is strong and durable; plastic grids are smooth, gentle on bird feet, corrosion-resistant, and easy to clean—ideal for long-term use.
2. Available Sizes
- By material: plastic slats or galvanized wire mesh;
- By opening type: slot-style (e.g., 13×50 mm, 16×50 mm) or square holes;
- Suitable for: chicks, broilers, layers, and breeders—with specific models for each.
3. Key Specifications
- Load capacity: ≥100 kg/m²;
- Service life: 5–8 years for plastic, 8–10+ years for galvanized mesh;
- Installation slope: flat (0°) or slight incline (≤3°) for better manure drop;
- Meets animal welfare standards—prevents foot injury and manure buildup.
4. Typical Dimensions
- Standard plastic panel: 500 mm × 300 mm × 30–50 mm (thick);
- Galvanized mesh width: commonly 600 mm, 700 mm, or 1000 mm (length cut to order);
- Slot width: 13–18 mm (to prevent foot trapping).
5. Installation
Lay the slats directly on cage bottoms or support beams. Plastic panels are secured with clips or interlocking edges; wire mesh is fastened with U-clamps or binding wire. Ensure tight joints with no lifting edges, and leave at least 50 cm clearance underneath for manure removal.
