Floor beam for pig farm buildings PRF-PIG-0044-165-06-00

Product description
The RABDION GFRP Standard Floor Beam is a pultruded glass-fibre reinforced polymer structural profile designed specifically for swine farrowing, nursery and finishing flooring sub-structures. Engineered to provide high load capacity with minimal deflection across extended spans, it performs in both shallow and deep pit installations while eliminating corrosion and structural degradation associated with steel or concrete supports.

Key features

• EN 13706 E23 performance rating.
• Resistant to ammonia, manure acids and common washdown chemicals.
• Improved biosecurity and surface hygiene compared with steel or concrete.
• Enables extended clear spans; suitable for shallow and deep pit flooring systems.
• Thermally non-conductive for animal comfort and safety.
• Compatible with standard plastic slat panels and modular flooring systems.
