About Us

NextGen Group is based in Elk Horn, IA and is a distributor of Comfort Slat Mats, Uddermatic, and Strong Way Systems. We service the continental 48 states. The company was started by Shane and Tom Schechinger because they saw a need to improve the way livestock was raised, not only to make it better for the cattle, but also the farmer. The Schechinger's have both raised and been around livestock their entire life and therefore can relate to the problems that current livestock producers are going through. Shane has also been involved in the construction side of livestock buildings for over 10 years.

Shane and Tom have worked hard to design a slat mat that is designed for the comfort of your calf, cow or other livestock. NextGen Group works hard to protect your animals, save you money and time and increase production and profit from your cattle.
