Test report 7252

The approval

A test mark “DLG-APPROVED for individual criteria” is awarded for agricultural products which have success­fully fulfilled a scope-reduced usability testing conducted by DLG according to independent and recognised evaluation criteria. The test is intended to highlight particular innovations and key criteria of the test object. The test may contain criteria from the DLG test scope for overall tests, or focus on other value-determining characteristics and properties of the test subject. The minimum requirements, test conditions and procedures as well as the evaluation bases of the test results will be specified in consultation with an expert group of DLG. They corres­pond to the recognised rules of technology, as well as scientific and agricultural knowledge and requirements. The successful testing is concluded with the publication of a test report, as well as the awarding of the test mark which is valid for five years from the date of awarding. The test was based on the DLG Testing Framework for elastic stable flooring, as of December 2018 and DIN 3763:2020-04 (Elastic floorings for cattle and dairy cows walking and rest surfaces – Requirements and testing). Other criteria were not tested.

“Made in Germany” test mark supplement

In addition to the test contents of the “DLG-ANERKANNT in individual criteria” award, the quality assurance of the manufacturer Huber Technik Vertriebs GmbH in the production of floor coverings for animal husbandry was successfully assessed and evaluated. To emphasize this certified and thus proven consistently high product quality, a test mark supplement “Made in Germany” was awarded. The quality assurance certification was carried out in accordance with ISO 9001:2015 as part of the award test for a DLG quality seal (test report 6910). During the audit of the Erding production site conducted for this purpose, all processes relevant to ensuring consistent product quality were reviewed. The audit focused on the production process from the procurement of raw materials to the preparation of the goods for delivery. Following initial certification, compliance with the defined processes is monitored through regular assessments of the Erding production site.

Assessment – Brief Summary

The Huber N20 comfort flooring tested here, an elastic floor covering in the lying area for high boxes in cubicle stables, was tested for durability and comfort properties on test stands in the DLG-ANERKANNT overall test. In the practical tests, the assembly and dimensional stability were assessed and behavioral observations and joint bonitings were carried out.

In particular, the deformability and durability after long-term tread loading as well as joint health were significantly better than the standard. 
DIN 3763 requirements are met. Deformability and elasticity class 2 according to DIN 3763.

* The DLG test framework provides the following options in its evaluation schemes:
 ■ ■  or better = meets, exceeds or clearly exceeds the specified DLG standard,
  = meets the requirements,  = failed
** Single criteria slip resistance:   = passed,  = failed
*** Single criteria acid resistance:  ■ ■ = resistant, ■ ■ = limited resistant,  = failed

Requirements DIN 3763 fulfilled. Deformability and elasticity Class 2 according to DIN 3763.
