Floor beam for pig farm buildings PRF-PIG-0044-135-06-00

Product overview
The RABDION GFRP Standard Floor Beam is a pultruded structural profile engineered for swine farrowing, nursery, and finishing flooring sub-structures. Fully certified to EN 13706 Grade E23, it delivers high load-bearing capacity and minimal deflection across extended spans in both shallow and deep pit environments. Compatible with standard plastic slat panels and modular flooring systems, this profile provides total immunity to ammonia, manure acids, and washdown chemicals. Backed by 35+ years of proven field reliability across North America, Europe, and global markets, RABDION floor beams completely eliminate the rust, structural failure, and biosecurity risks of traditional steel or concrete supports.

Key features

• EN 13706 E23 performance rating.
• Immunity to severe chemical and waste media (ammonia, manure acids, washdown agents).
• Improved biosecurity and surface hygiene—non-porous, easy to wash.
• Extended clear spans with versatility for shallow and deep pit systems.
• Thermal comfort and electrical non-conductivity for animal welfare and safety.
• Universal compatibility with standard plastic slat panels and modular flooring systems.
