Heat Mats


Osborne’s Stanfield heat mats were the first electric, under-body heating pads developed for newborn livestock animals back when farmers had only dangerous and inefficient heat lamps to rely on. Today, Stanfield heat mats continue to be the safest and most reliable supplemental heat source for a variety of species all around the world. Whether your raise pigs, dogs, or even exotic animals, investing in a Stanfield heating mat will provide your animals with years of safe and efficient heat where it is needed most.

About

Stanfield heat mats provide safe and gentle supplemental heat for newborn and growing livestock animals, pets, and exotic animals like tortoises, lizards, and more. Operating at a steady temperature rise above ambient temperature, these electric heat pads are designed to promote healthy growth, reduce stress, and provide the optimal growing environment to newborn and growing animals.

Although heat mats are the safe and economical alternative to heat lamps, they're not all the same: Osborne's engineered abrasion-resistant, fiberglass-reinforced composites fully encapsulate a low-temperature, double-insulated heating element, making them far superior to cheap and less reliable poly mats. And, Stanfield heat mats have earned more electrical safety certifications than any other brand (including UL, CSA, CE, IEC, and PSE). They are simply the safest, under-body electric heating mats in the world.

Join Osborne's thousands of satisfied customers — and hundreds of thousands of warm, healthy animals all over the world — by choosing Stanfield heat mats for your most important animals.

Heat Mats

HEALTHIER PIGLETS

Providing heat without baby pigs piling pays off in better rest and peak immune systems.
Heat Mats

LARGER LITTERS

Eliminate crush losses by keeping baby pigs safely away from the sow in the creep area.
Heat Mats

ENERGY EFFICIENT

Heat mats are more energy efficient than heat lamps and they last much longer, too.
Heat Mats

INFUSED WITH COBALT

Stanfield Heat Mats are infused with natural, bacteria-reducing cobalt for protection from disease-causing microbes.

Stanfield Farrowing Heat Mats

Create a perfect microclimate for newborn pigs with Stanfield farrowing heat pads. At full power, these mats provide a uniformly-warm surface approximately 30-35° F (16-20° C) above air temperature. This creates a 90-100° F (32-38° C) resting surface in an otherwise cool farrowing house. Prevent chilling drafts and keep baby pigs safely away from the sow to prevent crush losses and ensure all their energy is used for growth, not warmth.

Stanfield Nursery Heat Mats

Osborne's nursery heat pads reduce weaning stress, promote healthful rest, keep natural immune systems at their peak, and increase growth rates of nursery animals by putting heat where it is needed most. Operating at 20-25° F (11-14° C) above air temperature at full power creates an attractive resting area, while uniform heat distribution helps reduce "piling" of animals.

Stanfield Pet Heat Mats

Livestock animals aren’t the only animals to benefit from the gentle warmth created by Stanfield heat pads. From dogs and cats to exotic animals like tortoises, snakes, lizards, and other reptiles, there’s a Stanfield heat mat for any animal.

Controls & Accessories

Protect both heat mats and animals with controls and accessories that increase longevity and improve operating efficiency. A full line of power controls are available ranging from a single-mat rheostat to a feature-loaded automatic control with temperature-ramping capabilities for whole rooms of mats.
