Can be a false economy though. Properly done, fibreglassing will last years and is easy peasy to power wash back to its original condition. Sure at the outset it will be circa £24/sq.m but written off over 25 years it’s less than £1/sq.m whilst the “cheap” acrylic will have had to have been repainted several times and probably won’t take kindly to the power washer either

Agree- spray with volume washer to make damp, then apply diluted solution of hypochlorite to the walls , then go in for breakfast. After breakfast simply powerwash the muck off- the hypo breaks down the fats in the muck.

Fibreglass splits and will come away from the wall. This stuff is ace and is easy to clean.

Probably take half the wall after a few years too...

If its in the dairy, just spray it with the hot wash water every day or so.

I've seen a fibreglassed wall where someone kept letting a broom handle hit it and it was coming away in sheets as the damp worked its way underneath through some small cracks. It wasn't pretty

less is best, sealed concrete panels or treated fine blocks, if paint is flaking off a wall mr Farm assurance/dairy inspector tells you to repaint it, but if it wasn’t painted in the first place it is fine.

Looks smart, and also, much much brighter than plain concrete. I'm surprised bare concrete is allowed from a food production angle.

That's our parlour in the picture, you can pretty much choose any colour of flake to put on the wall.

Do you know if they have resins suitable for feed troughs?

Was suppose to be done by simon from concept cowhouse around the 5th of jan but left him a message and heard nothing back. Disappointing as he approached me on TFF.

Happy to quote

Is that parlour clad or walled with the paneltim (if you see what I in mean)?

I couldn't tell you i'm afraid. These guys do coatings.

Those two photos show walling. Panels with H-section profiles

You can also clad existing walls with 27mm "half" panels, fixed with screws and washers per panel

How many grain, root , veg stores have bare concrete walls or floors
Last time I checked dairy farmers don't pour milk over the walls then scoop it up and tip it in the tank
Salesmen have a lot to answer for

Hygienic Plastic Supplies, pvc sheets, just glue them to the clocks. Lasts ages and cheap as chips, do it yourself. Highly recommend

 

[Farmyard]

Blocks, not clocks....
