Animal Bedding
The animal bedding we produced is of a dry woodchip used as an alternative to straw under sheep and cattle housed in sheds.
At Wood waste recycling we create our animal bedding from completely clean packaging material which is 100% recycled and free from all metal compounds, halogenated organic compounds and Creosote, This making it safe and comfortable for animals to rest on.
The wood chip is around the size of a postage stamp. Initially wood chips are spread across the shed floor to a depth of 10cm, which is then topped up every 7-10 days for sheep on dry food, or every 2-3 days for cattle on silage.
This is significantly less frequent than with straw and therefore reduces labour costs.
