How Our  Animal Beddings Are Made

NW Resources Blog - How our animal beddings are made

As sustainability becomes more and more important, how the bedding materials we sell are sourced and produced is becoming more relevant to farmers.

But how exactly does our bedding end up in your cubicles, stables and poultry units? Let’s take a look at the different beddings we sell and their journey to you…

Wood Fibre Bedding

Our quality wood fibre bedding, whether in bulk or bales, is made from clean recycled wood. It undergoes a stringent cleaning process and is dust-extracted to ensure that what you buy – whether for dairy cattle, horses or chickens – is soft, dust-free and sustainable.

Did You Know...

Our wood fibre products are free-draining meaning the wet soaks to the bottom, leaving the top dry and comfortable for your animals to live on.

Kiln Dry Sawdusts

Kiln drying reduces the moisture content of our sawdust dramatically, often to below 10%. That means: 

  • Greater absorbency
  • Lower bacterial risk
  • Easier handling and spreading
  • Longer-lasting use in cubicles or deep beds

This step also reduces the risk of mould and helps eliminate pathogens.

Home-Grown Sawdusts

Our home-grown sawdust is a by-product of a combination of softwood and coniferous trees, which are used to make other products. It is an organic bedding and comes with variable moisture content.

Did You Know...

Our Home Grown sawdust is a damper product, which means it is a less dusty product.

Milled Fines

Our milled fines are very fine, dry wood particles which are created through a mechanical milling process.

They are typically finer and more uniform than our regular sawdusts, with a powdery texture that offers excellent absorbency. Ideal for cattle and poultry units.

Milled fines are run through a vibrating screen or cyclone system to remove oversized particles, ensuring a consistency

Sustainable animal bedding isn’t just a smart choice for performance, it’s also a positive step for your farm’s environmental credentials. From reducing waste to improving hygiene and cow comfort, its journey from us to you is one of care and consideration.
