Looking for premium equine bedding? Take a look at Bed-Down’s chopped straw & shavings mix: Excel horse bedding, one of the UK’s favourites.
When it comes to choosing the right horse bedding, Excel stands out as a top choice, offering a blend of practicality, comfort and environmental responsibility. As the original mix of chopped straw and shavings, Excel has become one of the nation’s favourite equine bedding products, known for its unique 50/50 composition that harnesses the strengths of both materials.
One of the key benefits of Excel horse bedding is its exceptional coverage, spreading up to a third further than an equivalent-sized bale of shavings. This makes it not only economical but also easier to manage in the long run. The chopped, improved wheat straw used in Excel is more durable and safer than traditional long straw, which can harbour harmful mould and dust. This makes Excel particularly suitable for horses with respiratory concerns.
Excel’s innovative ‘spring-back’ technology makes for springy, cushioned horse bedding that supports your horse’s joints and hocks, encouraging them to lie down and rest comfortably. This is crucial for their overall health and well-being. Additionally, Excel undergoes a thorough dust extraction process, our EASY BREATHE™ system, which ensures a cleaner, safer environment for horses, especially those prone to respiratory issues.
Another advantage of Excel equine bedding is its pleasant lemon fragrance, which keeps the stable smelling fresh and naturally discourages bed eating, while also helping to repel flies. The high-quality, small shaving flakes used in Excel are super absorbent, effectively trapping moisture in a small area, making mucking-out quick and easy. The chopped straw allows wetness to drain, keeping the surface dry and comfortable while minimising ammonia levels.
Excel horse bedding is also environmentally friendly, breaking down within 4-8 months, reducing waste and keeping your muck heap manageable. Our commitment to sustainability is further demonstrated by our use of locally sourced raw materials and packaging made from 30% recycled plastic, which is 100% recyclable and reusable.
Choosing Excel equine bedding means choosing a bedding that’s good for your wallet and the environment as well as the health of your horse.
