Why Equine Pine:
CLEANER, DRIER STALLS: The 100% pine pellets are like thousands of tiny
sponges that will absorb more than 3 times their weight in liquid to keep stalls
dry.
ELIMINATES ODOR: The kiln dried pine bonds with the ammonia in urine and
neutralizes it, greatly reducing respiratory ailments. This also cuts down on
the fly population as well!
100% PURE PINE: Equine Pine® uses only 100% pine. No hardwoods or bark are ever
used, creating a consistent, high quality product.
LESS DUST: Equine Pine® is screened twice and then aspirated to remove dust
particles. In drier months you may need to lightly sprinkle the stall to keep
the bedding moist and dust free.
REDUCES HEALTH RISKS: The 100% kiln dried pine is sterile, as well as mold and
bacteria free. Kiln drying also removes the natural oils, eliminating unhealthy
aromatic hydrocarbons found in unprocessed shavings. There are no contaminants,
such as those in products containing hardwoods.
COST EFFECTIVE: You add only one bag of pellets every 5-7 days and strip the
stall every 3-4 months. Removal costs will be dramatically reduced. Stall
cleaning time will be cut in half.
SUPPLY: Consistent availability of shavings is becoming more difficult. Equine
Pine® has a guaranteed source of sawdust. The use of pelleted sawdust improves
bedding efficiency thereby reducing quantities needed.
REMOVAL COSTS: Your disposal volume will be reduced by up to 50%. This will
greatly reduce your removal costs. The sawdust and manure make some of the best
compost available. There is even income available selling this high quality
compost (see manure management).
STORAGE: The 40lb. bags take up much less room than bales of shavings and you
use fewer of them. The 50- 40lb. bags on a pallet come with a water resistant
cover so that it can be stored outdoors.
