A clean, cushioned floor for the most important nights of the year
Foaling stalls carry unusual demands: a mare under strain, a newborn foal finding its feet, and a floor that has to be cleaned thoroughly and quickly afterwards.
The requirements that bring breeding operations to us
A newborn slips, stands, and falls repeatedly in its first hours. Hard flooring under thin bedding makes every attempt harder.
Late gestation and foaling both mean extended time lying down on whatever the stall floor provides.
Foaling boxes have to be cleared and cleaned thoroughly and fast, often overnight, and porous floors slow that down.
A mare in labour or a nervous first-time mother makes hard contact with stall walls.

A newborn foal spends its first hours slipping, standing, and falling. A cushioned surface with consistent traction reduces the punishment of those attempts, and a sealed floor can be stripped and washed properly before the next mare goes in.
Cushioning for mares lying down through late gestation and foaling
Consistent traction for foals in their first hours
Boxes that strip and wash out quickly between mares
Cleaning is easy and the horses get the comfort that they deserve. I highly recommend choosing SoftStall.
Installed ahead of foaling season
Foaling stalls are specified and installed well before the season starts.
Box dimensions and subfloor confirmed, including wall padding coverage.
Completed outside the season so no box is out of service when it matters.
Mare stalls and aisles added on the same specification in later phases.
Questions breeders ask
Cushioned flooring with consistent traction is one of the main reasons breeding operations specify it. Bedding is still used on top for comfort and warmth.
Because the floor is sealed and non-absorptive, boxes strip and wash down rather than needing to be dug out.
Many are. Mares in labour and nervous first-time mothers both make hard wall contact, which is what SoftWall addresses.
Well ahead of the season. Talk to us in the off-season so nothing is scheduled during foaling.
