FAQ

Is it suitable for horses with respiratory problems?

Yes — Bedmax has one of the lowest levels of dust and spores on the market, making it an excellent choice for horses with respiratory sensitivities or equine asthma.

How do I set up a new bed?

Use 4–6 bags of Bedmax shavings, spread evenly and fluffed up with a shavings fork. Bank shavings at the sides and replenish every 1–1.5 weeks to maintain a depth of 6–8 inches. Muck out as soon as possible, shaking clean shavings back onto the surface.

Why does pine have antibacterial properties?

Pine naturally contains compounds that have antibacterial and antifungal properties, helping to protect against harmful microorganisms in the stable environment.

How does it compare to other shavings?

Bedmax is purpose-made specifically for horses, with dust and spore levels significantly lower than general-purpose wood shavings. It is designed to address the specific health and welfare needs of stabled horses.
