Hemp does not dust

One of the best features of hemp is that it is dust-free. Unlike commonly used straw and peat, hemp does not produce any dust, which means the air in the stable remains fresher. Being dust-free improves the well-being of both horses and people.

Hemp rots quickly

Hemp is completely biodegradable and decomposes faster than other horse bedding. Hemp can be spread directly on the field. Highly compostable and ecological bedding can also be used more quickly for other purposes, such as in the garden.

Hemp can be safely used on horses because they don't eat it. Many people have problems with straw pellets, for example, because horses like to eat it. Hemp is not tasty to horses. Hemp hay is grown without pesticides, so it is also safe.

Hemp is absorbent and also absorbs odors

Due to its absorbency, hemp produces the least amount of dry manure, so the manure pit fills up more slowly. Hemp brings a sense of cleanliness to the stable. It is naturally antibacterial and absorbs moisture and ammonia odor very well.

Hemp does not freeze

Hemp does not freeze in frost, so it can be stored outdoors without worry. The bedding is packed in plastic, which also protects it from moisture. The tightly packed bags fit into a small space and are easy to handle.

Hemp brings light to the stable

The light color of hemp makes it easy to clean the stalls. It is easier to work and care for horses in a bright stable. The light bedding used in the stalls makes the overall appearance of the stable neat and airy.
