What is agricultural concrete?
Agricultural concrete, also known as agricultural or farm-grade concrete, refers to a specific type of concrete used in agricultural applications. It is designed to meet the unique needs and requirements of agricultural environments, such as livestock facilities, barns, silos, agricultural storage buildings, and feedlots. Agricultural concrete is engineered to withstand the demands and challenges of the agricultural industry.

The benefits of using concrete in farmyards and agricultural settings
Non-slip properties
To ensure the safety of both animals and workers, agricultural concrete can be designed with a non-slip texture or surface treatment. This helps to prevent accidents and provides traction, especially in areas prone to wet or slippery conditions.
Freeze-thaw resistance
In regions with freezing temperatures, agricultural concrete is engineered to withstand the expansion and contraction caused by freeze-thaw cycles. This helps prevent cracking and damage to the concrete structure over time.
Customisation
Agricultural concrete can be customised to meet specific needs. It can be tailored to different shapes, sizes, and finishes based on the requirements of the agricultural facility.
We have recommended our best performance products to suit general use in agricultural application, but we recommend you also reach out to our specialist regional teams for further support and guidance. See our locations
Strength and durability
Agricultural concrete is formulated to be strong and durable, capable of withstanding heavy loads and harsh conditions. It can support the weight of farm equipment, livestock, and stored agricultural products.
Resistance to chemicals and corrosion
Agricultural environments often involve exposure to chemicals, such as fertilisers, animal waste, and cleaning agents. Agricultural concrete is typically designed to resist the corrosive effects of these substances, ensuring longevity and minimising maintenance requirements.
Hygiene and sanitation
The hygiene and cleanliness of agricultural facilities are crucial for the health and well-being of livestock and workers. Agricultural concrete surfaces are typically designed to be smooth, easy to clean, and resistant to stains, odours, and bacterial growth.
