With many horses being turned out for the summer, bedding isn’t at the forefront of the horse owner’s mind but, with the competition and show season upon us, bedding for boxes should be considered- here are a few ideas:

Aquamax is highly absorbent, virtually dust free, eliminates the smell of ammonia and has a large surface area, meaning it absorbs moisture quickly. It’s supplied in 13.6kg bags too, so they aren’t too heavy to move around.

Bedmax is ideal for those looking for shaving with a slightly larger flake. Bedmax is dust free, dry, hygienic, long lasting, easy to maintain and great value for money.

Littlemax is ideal for those looking for fine shavings, for those who prefer lighter shavings. Littlemax is dust free, dry, hygienic, long lasting, easy to maintain and great value for money.

Easibed is a dust free wood fibre bedding that is comfortable and free draining, meaning that it allows wet to drain through to the base where it is absorbed. 

Megazorb is a highly absorbent (the makers say that they believe it’s the most absorbent bedding available), double dusted extracted bedding, made using virgin wood pulp. It also absorbs odours and comes in 15kg bags.

Nedz Bed Pro is made using oil seed rape straw and is a ‘super absorbent alternative to straw and other bedding materials’. It’s virtually dust free and reduces ammonia levels, helping those who suffer with respiratory issues.
