The Mayo Performance Guarantee

Your bedding system is not just an initial outlay. It is an investment that, if made well, will generate a return as your cow’s comfort and general welfare will be greatly impacted by its performance over the course of its life. This in turn will directly impact on your herd’s productivity.

The majority of systems will perform quite well for the first couple of years before they start going hard / forming hollows / going brittle / ripping etc.

This is why we at Mayo are guaranteeing the performance of our bedding system – not just its visible existence in the cubicle at the end of the guarantee term.

  • Our system will never go hard. It physically can’t.
  • It will never lose its multiple independent study, market-leading rating for hygiene as it will never become absorbent and therefore harbour bacteria.
  • It cannot go brittle so it will never become an abrasive surface.

We at Mayo are governed by a set of principles developed over 30 years and built completely around a cow’s welfare. Innumerable hours observing the behaviour of cows in a cubicle house environment have shown us that, without question or exception, the healthiest most productive cows are the most stress-free cows.
