Exceptional Bedding Our premium-flake organic wood shavings are made with mixture of spruce and balsam. We create a precise mix of small, medium, and large flakes to suit all your animal bedding needs. The small flakes help absorb moisture and make it easy to pick through so there is less waste. The large flakes work great for show days and provide an ultimate cushion for animals to stand and lay on. A Safe Wood Shaving Our organic bedding is great for animals with respiratory issues, or skin sensitivities. It does not contain any harsh chemicals or chemical smells (things that can irritate our animals lungs and nose.) The fact that there is minimal dust is also an important benefit to our animals or people with asthma. We use only organic-certified trees to produce our shavings—there are no by-products, additives, or wood waste from manufacturing in our product. Organic Organic is a labeling term that indicates that the product has been produced and processed using approved methods. The methods integrate cultural, biological, and mechanical practices that foster cycling of resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity. As the only certified USDA Organic wood shavings producer in the country, the USDA seal on our bags means you are a getting a product that is produced and maintained to the national standards. The list of benefits goes on and on... 100 Percent Organic We are the only wood shavings producer in the country that is certified 100 percent organic and we proudly display the USDA Organic seal on our bags, so you know you are getting an all-natural product that is maintained to the highest quality standards. Chemical-free We use the wood flour and dust (that is created when shaving the logs) to heat the burner that dries the shavings. There is no waste of resources with our process. Low moisture Our shavings go through three quality control tests to ensure the product contains 7% or less moisture. Double-screened to minimize dust The shavings are sent through a double-screened shaker, separating our bagged product from the wood flour and dust. They are not a by-product from planers or other manufacturing and do not contain any sawdust. Super absorbent The absorbency comes from keeping our product within the correct moisture parameters and leaving enough small flakes to adequately soak up urine like a sponge. Biodegradable Spruce and balsam have low acidity levels, therefore they biodegrade faster than other species for field applications.
