Flooring System Improves Livestock Trailers

Flooring System Improves Livestock Trailers Logan Coach is redefining the livestock hauling industry with products that prioritize durability, functionality and animal comfort. Their Whiz Proof flooring, crafted from heavy-duty extruded aluminum planks, stands out in the market. “They’re stronger than the flat aluminum sheets in other trailers and are the only slatted aluminum floors with 1/4-in. gaps between the boards,” says Logan Coach General Manager Scott Ward. Whiz Proof ensures efficient drainage, protecting the trailer from corrosion and reducing maintenance needs. After installation, the aluminum is treated with a Vortex bed liner spray, adding an extra layer of protection against moisture and urine. Complementing Whiz Proof is Sure Grip flooring, a permanent, self-draining solution made from recycled rubber and a specialized binder. Unlike traditional rubber mats, Sure Grip allows liquids to seep through without holes in the material. This feature helps minimize ammonia odor buildup, while its textured surface provides superior traction and stability for animals. The flooring is glued down to stay securely in place and can be custom-fitted to any trailer. “It’s permanent, so it’s a replacement for awkward rubber floor mats,” Ward says. “You never have to remove the floor mats; just pressure-wash the Sure Grip flooring.” Logan Coach’s trailers are further strengthened by their Galva-Strong galvanized structural tubing, which provides exceptional resistance to rust and superior strength compared with black steel and aluminum. With an 8-year structural warranty, owners enjoy long-term performance and reliability. “What distinguishes our flooring products from our competitors is our commitment to moisture management,” Ward says. “Other trailer brands lack a drainable floor beneath their rubber add-ons, resulting in trapped liquids and permanent odors.” Logan Coach products are manufactured in Utah and are available through dealers and installers nationwide. Ward recommends that interested parties contact their nearest dealer for pricing and availability because each trailer is unique and Logan Coach products are independently priced.
