Flax Animal Bedding. READ READ READ!!

A natural, vegetable-based bedding made exclusively from the base of the flax plant. This central, wooden-like part of the flax stalk is protected by a hypoallergenic fiber envelope and has a powerful absorption rate (up to 350% of its own weight in moisture!).

The particle size of this cloudlike bedding is very practical in stalls, barns, coops, pet areas, and more because it easily sifts through your tools to significantly reduce waste.

DUST FREE

Benefits animals with respiratory issues or skin sensitivities
Helps keep your shed & stables surfaces cleaner

ECO-FRIENDLY

Natural, renewable resource
Neutral pH gives back to the soil instead of depleting it
Naturally high in nitrogen - doesn't need to be composted and can be spread immediately

Absorbs liquids at the base of the stall bed, leaving the top layer dry and comfortable

COST-EFFECTIVE

50% less product (on average) needed to maintain a clean, comfy shed or stable

NATURALLY FIRE RETARDANT

Keeps your barn safer

Do you know a stockist that may be interested in selling Blackgate’s Flax Bedding??
I have loads looking to buy a few bales and not the pallet at a time.

With Wood Shavings increasing in price and straw to follow soon due to fertiliser costs maybe it’s time to look at a new bedding. Flax will last longer, it’s consistent, drier, no dust and binds ammonia, not to mention having a smaller dung heap that is a 100% Biodegradable and Green.

Stockist must take a minimum load and can be stored outside

We might be a little late posting but well done to Brendan Holland and his team at Grove Stud on this result.

Thanks Grove Stud!
