Researching and need advice/ opinions. Wanting more cushion in the flooring of my trailer but also want ease of care and cleaning. Heard alot about WERM and polylast flooring, also the padded foam under the rubber mats plus soft ride boots. Would like your opinion on the pros and cons, costs, where you can get it done and any other options you recommend. Looking for the best option for the price and care of the trailer & horse(s). Thank you in advance for your time and help.
I know many people that have the WERM and love it. Will be getting it in my new trailer too. Look on their website and they list the dealers/application places.
My mom has a trailer with each and she prefers the polylast, the WERM seems slick. To the point she got a ramp added to her trailer because horses were slipping so bad getting in and out of it. I haven't noticed any slipping with the polylast though. And from here on that's what I will be getting.

WERM stands for We Eliminate Rubber Mats. It's almost like a spray in bedliner type feeling and is not slick. The floors are prepped and then the material is poured in and takes about 24 hours to cure. It completely seals the floor and doesn't allow anything to permiate the floor. There are no more mats to pull, etc. Super easy to clean out and it's about 5/8" thick. Also, if you do have a horse that paws and creates a hole you can get a patch kit. Well worth the money.

We have a WERM floor in our 2004 4 star. That thing still looks brand new. I love it, and it doesnt seem slick at all to me but mine step up in the trailer pretty easy.
