Description

This product can provide a comfortable and hygienic surface that can reduce stress, improve cow health, and increase milk production

Aquastar Ultimate is a water-based mattress complete with a water filled brisket tube which aims to provide the best possible comfort for your cows. Each cubicle bed within this continuous mattress system has an individual water chamber; this ensures the water is distributed evenly around the cow to obtain the ‘floating’ affect, supporting optimised blood circulation and increased milk production. This combined with 35mm of high-density foam underneath the water chambers provides extra protection to the cow when rising and lying down. The Waterboard brisket provides support and comfort for the front knees of your cows, reducing stress and promoting better comfort for improved lying times. Lying down for longer improves milk production and lowers lameness within the herd. The easy to clean top surface optimises cubicle hygiene which in turn lowers mastitis levels. The use of water within the mattress also keeps the bed cooler due to conductive cooling– this is beneficial during the summer months when temperatures increase.

Beattie/Reggie Lilburn – 250 cows, 10,500 litres
“From installing the Aquastar we have noticed a significant difference in the cows. Lying times have increased and Mastitis has reduced. The cows know when they’re in the shed with the Aquastar, we noticed them heading straight for the cubicles when they enter. Cow comfort is number one priority for us, the Aquastar helps us to achieve this”

Trevor Lockhart – 170 cows, 9,000 litres
“The biggest change we noticed in the cows once the Aquastar was installed, was how clean they are, the dung just rolls off them, and Mastitis is basically non-existent. The cows will pass the cubicles with the old mattress and choose the cubicles which have Aquastar mattress. It was definitely worth the investment”

The mattress is secured to the cubicle bed using plastic strips and stainless-steel fixings, the pouches are filled on fit to ensure the correct amount of water is added.

Benefits

Explore the unique advantages our products provide.

The level of bacteria is reduced as the beds are scientifically proven to stay cleaner thanks to the movement of the water in the pouch.
The water pouch combined with the foam underlay provides excellent support to the cow’s hawks. This therefore reduces the level of injuries in the cow house.
Lying times are increased due to the level of comfort the Aquastar mattress provides. This therefore allows for the cow to produce greater levels of milk.
The cooling effect of the water mattress reduces leakage of milk and therefore keep the mattress cleaner.

FAQs

Find answers to common questions

Has this product been proven to improve milk production?
Scientists in Denmark and Hungary have concluded that Aquastar Ultimate has been proven to increase milk production: by 3.5 litres in Denmark and 1.8 litres in Hungary.
How does it battle heat stress?
High production dairy cows struggle to omit body heat as they consume and process a lot of energy. Normal mattresses act as insulators for the cow where water provides conductive cooling, making lying in the cubicle stall the most attractive place in warm weather.
How does it increase blood flow?
Blood flow is increased as pressure points are removed. This is because the water mattress creates a floating affect, moulding to the cow’s body, ensuring the animals weight is distributed evenly.
