30 years on farms

Since 1995, we’ve worked alongside dairy, cropping and lifestyle farmers from Northland to Southland — designing and manufacturing rubber matting, off-paddock systems and kitset farm sheds that earn their keep season after season.

We’ve spent three decades on farms — and we don’t pretend there’s one fix. Sometimes it’s a rubber mat under a herringbone. Sometimes it’s a 4,000m² composting barn. Sometimes it’s a kitset shed that arrives on a truck. The answer depends on your farm.

Don't take our word for it.​

Real stories from real farms across New Zealand. Press play to hear what they say in their own words.

"The mats have now been in for 12 years, and we're about to turn them over to give them another 10 to 15 years of life."
