The Honegger Concrete Slat Product
A concrete slat floor should clean well and stay dry. The Honegger slat is designed to do just that. A slight taper from the center is built into the slat, and this unique design along with the smooth finish keeps the floor cleaner and drier.
The Honegger slat has a pencil rounded edge that resists chipping and reduces damage to feet and legs. The slat is poured upside down in a steel form so that a consistently smooth and rounded edge is obtained. A smooth surface will not result in a floor that is too slick. In fact, the smooth floor will clean better, stay drier and provide better footing than a rough floor that accumulates manure and moisture.

Custom Spacing & SizesHonegger Slats has the ability to manufacture special 5" wide self-spacing "T" slats along with practically any other special slats for your replacement needs.
The special length slats have a "T" on one end which creates a 1" space when put in place against the end with no "T." The self-spacing "T" slat is a unique feature of the Honegger slat. We feel the 6-inch slat with 1-inch spacing is the best floor for hogs over 50 pounds. Our standard length slats have a "T" on both ends of the slat. The 1/2" extension creates a 1" space when the slats are put in place. |
Our Concrete Slat StrengthWe use a 7 1/2 bag special mix design with a super plasticizer additive which gives Honegger Concrete Slats over a 7000 psi compression strength at 28 days.
