Concrete Livestock Habitats

Concrete Construction Enhances Safety & Health for Animals

Genie Blocks^® are an ideal product for ranchers and farmers raising animals.

Traditional wood structures, first of all, can easily become victims of fire. As with all fires, most casualties are caused by smoke inhalation. With the presence of straw, feed and other items for animal care there is plenty of tinder to do a great deal of damage even if the fire is caught before extensive structural damage occurs. Genie Blocks^® almost entirely eliminate most typical fire danger scenarios.

Sanitation of livestock habitats has come into clear view the last few years beginning with the outbreak of Mad Cow disease and more recently with the Avian Flu scare. Concrete can be cleaned aggressively with high-pressure washing, germicidal chemicals and steam that would destroy wood. Wet wood will eventually rot and will be subject to the growth and accumulation of toxic moulds and other organisms (such as E. coli) potentially hazardous to animals and even humans. Genie Blocks^® substantially reduce these potential problems because they can withstand regular, thorough sanitation regimens.

Livestock represents enormous investments of money and time and the loss of a herd or flock, even in part can have serious financial consequences.
