Ikadan ULTRAFLEX is the ideal solution for fully-drained farrowing pens.

The combination of plastic and cast iron provides a pleasant environment for both sows and piglets.

The system is incredibly flexible, thanks to its modular design, and practically any requirement can be met as heating pads and plastic and cast iron elements can be combined at will.

Plastic is used not only because it is an easily cleaned and “warm” material for piglets but also because it provides economic benefits. Cast iron can e.g. be used where the load is greatest and where sows are to have a cool, non-slip surface to stand on.

Cast iron slats are produced with or without non-slip edges. Slats without non-slip edges are ideal for sow forelegs, and provide comfortable support without risk of shoulder injury. Slats with non-slip edges are ideal for hind legs, providing stable support and ensuring that sows do not become stressed and frightened of standing up.
