Creating the perfect environment for animals starts from the ground up. For kennel owners, the flooring choice is critical in ensuring a clean, durable, and safe space for pets and staff alike. At Ridglan Animal Care Systems (RACS), we take pride in offering plastisol-coated steel flooring—a revolutionary solution designed to outperform popular alternatives like interlocking tiles and kennel mats, while keeping animal boarders healthy and their caretakers happy.
Why Kennel Flooring Matters
Kennel flooring is more than just a surface; it’s the foundation of a clean, safe, and healthy environment for animals. A well-designed kennel flooring system can significantly impact the overall well-being of the animals, helping to prevent the spread of diseases and reduce the risk of injuries. For kennel owners, the right flooring system translates to less time and resources spent on maintenance and upkeep, allowing more focus on animal care.
A durable and easy-to-clean kennel flooring system ensures that the environment remains hygienic, reducing the chances of bacteria and odor buildup. This is crucial for maintaining the physical and emotional health of the animals, creating a comfortable and stress-free environment for them. By investing in the right kennel flooring, kennel owners can provide a safe haven for their animal boarders, ensuring their well-being and happiness.
The RACS Advantage: Raising the Bar in Kennel Flooring
Not all dog kennel flooring is created equal. RACS flooring is crafted from premium steel and fully coated with plastisol, a tough and resilient plastic that combines strength with flexibility. This non-porous surface resists corrosion, scratches, and chemicals, making it the superior choice for demanding kennel environments.
In comparison to other common options:
-
Interlocking tiles are versatile but may require frequent replacement in high-use areas.
-
Kennel mats provide comfort but can be difficult to clean thoroughly.
RACS flooring eliminates these drawbacks with a seamless design that ensures cleanliness, durability, and comfort all in one package, making it ideal for dog kennels.
Safety and Hygiene: Prioritizing Pet and Staff Well-being
For kennel owners, maintaining a healthy environment for pets is essential. RACS flooring is engineered as a durable flooring system for safety:
-
Slip-resistant and paw-friendly to protect pets’ tender paw pads.
-
Seamless and non-porous to prevent bacteria and odor buildup caused by spills or animal waste.
Quality floor surfaces are crucial in kennel environments. Unlike options such as artificial turf, which can trap odors and require extensive cleaning, RACS flooring is exceptionally easy to maintain. A simple wipe or rinse removes messes, ensuring a cleaner environment for both pets and caretakers.
