Maximize Lying Time.
Optimize Milk Yield.
Every extra hour a cow spends resting yields up to 1.5kg more milk. Our commercial-grade free stalls, rubber mattresses, and automatic body brushes are engineered for large-scale dairy operations to reduce lameness, lower veterinary costs, and drive ROI.
Which Comfort Area Are You Optimizing?
Select the operational welfare issue you want to resolve to see our commercial-grade engineering recommendations.
Resting & Alignment
Ensure proper lying positions to eliminate injuries and maintain clean cubicles for reduced mastitis risk.
Joint & Hock Protection
Replace hard concrete with high-elasticity, slip-resistant surfaces to increase daily resting hours.
Stress & Circulation
Remove parasites and dead skin while stimulating blood flow to improve overall feed conversion rates.

Engineered Around Your Cows
Every NexAgri product is built with heavy-duty materials designed to withstand decades of harsh physical and chemical farm environments.
Heavy-Duty Cow Free Stalls
Ergonomic Alignment System
Designed using bovine ergonomics to ensure natural standing and lying movements. By correctly positioning the cow within the cubicle, you eliminate stall injuries and prevent manure from dropping into the resting area, directly lowering mastitis risk.
Commercial Cow Mattresses
High-Impact Shock Absorption
Hard concrete floors cause swollen hocks and painful lameness. Our high-elasticity rubber beds simulate natural pasture, encouraging cows to lie down 2-3 hours longer per day, which directly translates to increased milk production and faster hoof recovery.
Automatic Body Brushes
Circulation & Stress Management
Dairy cows naturally need to groom. Our automated, pressure-sensitive cow brushes safely remove parasites and debris while vigorously stimulating blood circulation. This reduces barn stress and aggression, leading to calmer herds with improved feed conversion efficiency.
Industrial-Grade Manufacturing
We never compromise on material quality, ensuring your investment withstands the heavy wear and tear of massive commercial herds.
Q235B Galvanized Steel
Our free stalls are hot-dip galvanized inside and out. The protective zinc coating resists corrosive barn ammonia for decades of rust-free stability.
High-Density Virgin Rubber
Mattresses are cast from wear-resistant, anti-aging rubber composites that maintain their shock-absorbing elasticity without compressing over time.
Smart Safety Motors
Brushes feature heavy-duty gearboxes and smart-sensor motors that instantly stop and reverse direction if excessive tension is detected.
Proven Comfort Upgrades Worldwide
See how commercial dairies are actively increasing milk yields through facility welfare optimization.
1,200 Head Stall Retrofit
Replacing outdated restrictive rails with ergonomic free stalls drastically reduced stall refusal rates and improved overall herd resting behavior in extreme desert climates.
Tropical Mattress Upgrade
Deployed anti-slip, high-elasticity rubber mattresses across 800 stalls to protect against concrete abrasions and manage moisture safely in a humid tropical environment.
Barn Grooming Stations
Strategic placement of automatic body brushes in feed alleys significantly reduced nervous behaviors and stimulated blood flow.
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) & Planning Guide
Upgrading barn comfort is not a sunk cost; it is a rapid-payback commercial investment.
1. Space & Layout Requirements
Proper sizing is crucial. Stalls that are too short cause cows to stand half-in, half-out, depositing manure on the bed. Stalls that are too wide allow diagonal lying. Our specialized engineering team provides fully adjustable stall designs calculated to match the exact dimensions of your specific herd.
For Body Brushes, we recommend one unit per 50-60 cows, installed in wide crossover alleys away from feed bunks to prevent bottlenecking.
2. Direct Milk Yield Impact (ROI)
When a cow lies down, blood flow through the udder increases by up to 30%. By replacing hard concrete with rubber mattresses and ergonomic free stalls, lying time typically increases from 9 to 12 hours per day.
Every extra hour resting correlates directly with up to 1.5kg of additional milk per cow, per day. For a 500-cow herd, this pays off the CapEx of new mattresses in under 12 months.
3. Veterinary & Culled Cow Savings
Lameness is one of the top three reasons for involuntary culling in commercial dairies. Hock abrasions from poor bedding directly lead to infections. Upgrading to shock-absorbing surfaces and proper neck rails prevents these physical injuries, drastically reducing expensive veterinary interventions and premature replacement costs.
