How Premium Concrete is Engineered
Premium Concrete Agri Products for Northern Ireland, ROI, and UK Farms
Agricultural buildings work best when every component carries its weight. Floors, slats, troughs, and beams must hold steady under constant movement, unpredictable weather, and the daily demands of livestock. McGarrity Bros. Ltd. manufactures concrete Agriproducts that are designed for long-term reliability, safe livestock handling, and efficient farm management across Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland, and the wider UK.
From reinforced concrete cattle slats to heavy-duty passage slabs, every product is engineered to manage load, moisture, wear, and weight distribution with consistent accuracy. Farmers who depend on robust infrastructure understand the difference that well-made agricultural concrete can bring to animal welfare, feed efficiency, and overall workflow. McGarrity Bros. Ltd. delivers agricultural concrete products with tested performance, technical quality, and top-notch service for yards of every scale.

Where Premium Concrete Perform Best
Concrete 6 Rib Cattle Slats
A livestock floor must carry more than weight. It must support movement, grip safely in wet conditions, drain consistently, and encourage healthy growth. At McGarrity Bros. Ltd., we produce precast concrete 6 rib cattle slats for beef and dairy farms that meet these requirements through precise shaping and reinforcement.
Each slat is finished with a smooth, brushed surface that provides grip without creating abrasion. This balance supports animal comfort, reduces fall risk, and helps maintain steady weight gain. Our precast concrete cattle slats are designed in accordance with EN 12737, CE marked, and manufactured under strict quality procedures to ensure even curing, consistent rib formation, and dependable load performance.
Every slat type, including internal and external mixing slats, is engineered as heavy-duty cattle slats suitable for tractor-driven yards. Load ratings are clearly defined so that farmers can select the appropriate configuration for their shed, tank, or yard. These capacities give farms confidence during routine scraping, feeding, cleaning, and machinery movement.

Our Agricultural Concrete Product Range
Livestock Slatted Flooring for Modern Agricultural Yards
Our livestock slatted flooring systems support the full spectrum of livestock housing, including beef sheds, dairy units, calf housing, and mixed-farm environments. Reinforced concrete provides the structural reliability needed for continuous animal traffic, while the rib design delivers efficient manure drainage and stable footing. The 6 rib slatted floors are a preferred choice across Ireland and the UK, thanks to their combination of strength, comfort, and ease of cleaning. Each slat is designed to reduce slurry build-up, prevent hoof injuries, and create a consistent walking and standing surface across the entire shed. These features support improved animal flow, cleaner cubicles, and better hygiene across feeding and resting areas.
Internal and External Mixing Slats
Slurry management shapes how well an agricultural building functions. We provide internal and external mixing slats built to withstand continuous agitation and tractor movement. Internal mixing slats are designed to sit within the shed, where operators require safe access for mixing without disturbing cattle. Their 4-ton axle rating ensures secure performance beneath machinery and provides a stable base for repeated operations. External mixing slats must tolerate additional stress from open-yard environments. The 1500-wide external slat options, manufactured at either 170 mm or 230 mm depth, give farms the flexibility to match tank width, mixing point layout, and site conditions. The depth options also allow farms to address load requirements, herd size, and equipment type. All mixing slats are reinforced, precision cast, and cured to provide dependable long-term performance, even in yards with high slurry volumes or heavy equipment use.
Passage Slabs and Solid Mixing Slabs
Passage slabs and solid mixing slabs carry a 10-ton axle load, creating a sturdy foundation for drive-through feeding lanes, machinery lanes, and external mixing points. These slabs must support large tractors, fully loaded diet feeders, and transport machinery without shifting or cracking. Our slabs are produced to maintain load integrity across the full length of the passage, giving operators a reliable surface that supports routine feeding, scraping, and transport movement. Their reinforced structure ensures resistance to heavy wheeled traffic, differential loading, and long-term wear from slurry, moisture, and temperature fluctuations.
Reinforced Concrete Beams
Supporting beams form the backbone of any slatted flooring system. Precision, load accuracy, and uniform curing determine how well a shed performs over several decades. Our beams carry a 6-ton line load per metre and are cast with consistent reinforcement to prevent deflection, distortion, and microcracking. Available in lengths from 2440 mm to 3950 mm, beams allow farmers and contractors across Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland, and the UK to construct reliable tank spans with minimal installation disruption.
Concrete Drinking Troughs
Water supply shapes livestock performance just as much as feed and housing. McGarrity Bros. Ltd. manufactures durable concrete drinking troughs for beef, dairy, and sheep farms. Their weight and stability outperform lightweight plastic alternatives, resisting tipping, chewing, UV deterioration, and accidental machinery contact. The smooth interior supports hygiene, and the mass of the concrete helps regulate water temperature year-round. Each trough includes a small rubber bung for quick draining, while ballcocks are protected behind reinforced housings with removable lids—reducing impact damage and streamlining maintenance.
Suitable for sheep pens, beef sheds, dairy herds, grazing areas, and general farmyards.
Available TROUGH Sizes
20 Gallon (90 L)
1200 × 700 × 330 mm
45 Gallon (205 L)
