Keep your farm buildings clean with precast concrete slurry channels
Precast Concrete Slurry Channels
Reduce, or even eliminate, the need for mechanical manure handling when you install Murphy precast concrete slurry channels. The excellent flow of our slurry channels means slurry flows straight out of the farm building, leading to a cleaner, calmer environment for your livestock, and one less thing for you to worry about.
Easy-clean concrete channels mean more efficient processes, improved sanitation, and quality of life for livestock.

Concrete Slurry Channel Installation
- Our Irish-designed and produced precast concrete slurry channels are extremely easy to fit with an interlocking groove joint that allows the units to fit together precisely and safely as soon as you slot them in. Though the fit is tight, your channels are then further sealed with a watertight finish to ensure that you avoid any chance of a leak.
- To install the channels, ensure you do so in a trench dug to a width wider than your channels and a suitably compacted hardcore base. Once you have inserted your channels, interlocked the grooves, sealed the connections, and positioned the covers, you can fill in the sides with suitably compacted trench fill or lean mixed concrete
- The final step is pouring concrete against the covers so that the trench is fully covered, and the top of the covers is in line with the ground. This will ensure that your slurry channels remain in place and operational for the foreseeable future.
The Benefits of Concrete Slurry Channels
- Precast concrete slurry channels are designed to transport animal waste safely and efficiently between storage tanks and farm buildings.
- Smooth finishes help remove the risk of blockages, allowing slurry to flow steadily so as to keep areas clean, reducing, and possibly even eliminating, the need for mechanical manure handling.
- Allow gravity to help clean out your farmhouse when you install sturdy, hard-wearing slurry channels designed to last.
Whatever your farmhouse needs, opt for robust slurry channels designed to stand the test of time, ensuring the cleanliness, safety, and efficiency of your waste disposal.
