Economical pine shavings
animal bedding for the discriminating horse
owner
These larger 9.5 cubic foot bags offer a more
economically way to buy pine shavings compared to
other smaller bales sold by other distributors.
The shavings are between 10% and16% moisture.which
is ideal for bedding.
Our shavings are unlike any other packaged
shavings you may have used, the quality is
exceptional and shavings size/thickness is
consistently ideal thanks to the advanced
equipment we use to produce them. Animal bedding
is our primary product and we have developed our
specialized equipment specifically for that
market. Other brands use industrial or mill waste
that can contain a lot of dust and fines
detrimental to livestock along with other
contaminants.
Absorbancy is top notch because our shavings are
thinner than mill waste. Our shavings thickness or
thiness in our case is ideal because we make the
shavings exactly as we require, rather than
whatever we get from the lumber mill. This is very
important, we are not just reselling you waste
material and calling it animal bedding, we have
engineered it to be just right for the
application.
Dust and unwanted fines are removed at the plant
before the shavings go for final packaging . This
is an important step as horses are sensitive to
dust.
Bulk shavings are often very low grade, can be
wet or contaminated with dirt and other unwanted
materials. Often the shavings size is not ideal or
contains to much fines ..remember bulk "bedding"
is often just waste sawdust that can be used as
bedding, it was never actually made for that
purpose. Supply can be erratic depending on how
busy the mills are, sometimes it's impossible to
obtain bulk shavings.
Other ways
to compare value
Why lighter is
better!
When comparing bedding products, weight and volume
are inversely proportional. There are 3.5 cubic foot
compressed bales which weigh 55 pounds and expand to
only 7 cubic feet in fluffed volume, and there are
3.5 cubic foot bales weighing 23 pounds which expand
to 10 or more cubic feet in volume.
Expanded volume is the crucial variable because it
determines how many bales are needed to bed a stall.
The volume-weight disparity is a function of the
percentage of fines, the loft and refinement of the
flake, and the moisture content. We feel that the
ideal bedding has great loft, enough fines for
optimum absorption without dust, and less than 15%
moisture.
The product in
Our BC Premium Shavings bags has been
manufactured to the meet the highest
specifications in the industry.
There are two major factors that make pine shavings
heavier than the ideal weight of a quality produced
bedding product. They are the inclusion of moisture and “fines”.
Some producers that use an industrial bi-product do
not effectively screen out their “fines”, adding the
illusion of weight to their bag. Higher moisture
content also adds weight to a bag. These bags
contain a manufactured pine shavings bedding product
and does not include any industrial bi-product.
The ideal weight of our compressed 9.5 cu. ft. bag
of high quality pine bedding shavings is
approximately 20-25 lbs.
These 9.5 cu
ft bags weigh approximately 22-26 lbs.

We sell our shavings factory direct for savings.
The best value is by the full semi truck load
(1100 Plus bales) .
We are competitively priced and often beat most
local prices for lower grade mill waste shavings
in 8.5 cu ft bags with our premium quality
shavings.
The average price for 8.5 cu ft bags of LOW GRADE
shavings is around $7.00 each in most stores. Our
bags of engineered shavings hold a lot more
shavings, contain NO fines and are drier for
reduced weight and higher compression volume. This means Our BC
premium shavings are a considerably better value
and cost less.
