Soft Floor Matting
In 2012 the Shire of Plantagenet made a commitment to improving the welfare of animals housed at the saleyards and undertook the purchase of 700 Surefoot soft floor mats. These mats were then put in all receival ramps, around the two paint boxes and in a portion of the selling pens.
In 2013 an additional 700 mats were added to cover all the selling pens ensuring the majority of animals passing through our system have access to soft floor.
In 2022 we undertook our first round of replacing worn matting with an additional 350 mats purchased. Laying of these mats finished in June 2023.
In 2025 we have purchased an additional 325 mats to continue with our replacement program. We will finish this replacement round in 2026 with a final purchase of matting pending funding approval.
The Saleyards are located 6km South of Mount Barker on Albany Highway.
