This KetoPlastics Green 50-litre animal feed and water trough is designed for livestock keepers needing a durable and practical feeding solution. Its key benefit is the robust, impact-resistant construction with easy hook-over mounting for secure placement on fences or rails. A minor caveat is its 50-litre capacity, which may require more frequent refilling for very large herds. This trough offers a generous 122cm length, suitable for multiple animals, and is made from high-density polyethylene for longevity in various farm environments.

The trough is manufactured from high-density polyethylene, known for its toughness and impact resistance.
The trough has a capacity of 50 litres.
Yes, the smooth interior surface makes it suitable for both feed and water applications.
It features integral moulded hooks and stay pins designed to hook over fences, gates, or rails for secure mounting.
It is suitable for a wide range of livestock including horses, cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs.
Yes, its durable construction is designed for both indoor and outdoor use.
The trough measures 122cm in length, 33cm in width, and 23cm in height.
Ensure the trough is mounted on a fence or rail of appropriate width. Check that the integral hooks are fully engaged and the stay pins are secured. If the mounting surface is uneven, consider shims or alternative securement methods.
Use a soft brush or sponge with warm, soapy water. For stubborn residue, a mild degreaser may be used, followed by thorough rinsing. Ensure all cleaning agents are removed before refilling for animal use.
While designed to be impact-resistant, severe impacts can cause damage. Inspect the trough for cracks or deep gouges. Minor scuffs are normal wear and tear, but significant damage may compromise its integrity and require replacement.
Setup: The trough is designed for hook-over mounting. Simply position the trough so the integral moulded hooks align with the top edge of your fence, gate, or rail. Ensure the stay pins engage securely to prevent the trough from shifting. For optimal stability, use on rails or fences with a compatible width that allows the hooks to grip firmly.
Compatibility: This trough is suitable for a wide range of livestock including horses, cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs. It can be used for both dry feed and water. Ensure the mounting surface is sturdy enough to support the weight of the trough when full.
Care: Cleaning is straightforward due to the smooth interior surface. Use a damp cloth or sponge with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch the plastic. Regular cleaning helps prevent the buildup of algae or feed residues, maintaining hygiene.
