Additional Product Information
Hemcore - Horse Bedding (Size: 20 kg)
Instructions of use:
1. If the stable is clean and empty, put down sufficient Hemcore to provide the depth of bed you require (up to 8-10 bales for a 12' x 12' stable) and spread evenly over floor, banking up sides if required.
2. Once all the bedding is down, sprinkle with 5 litres (approx 1 gallon) of water for every bale used. Leave to settle to allow the water time to activate the bed (at least a few hours).
3. If the stable has an existing bed of shavings as chopped straw (or similar) there is no need to remove this completely before starting a Hemcore bed. Just muck out as normal, but gradually move existing bed towards the centre and add Hemcore round the sides over a period of time. (There is no need to add water using this method).
4. From then on, disturb the bed as little as possible, removing droppings regularly and wet patches occasionally. Top us as required. (There is no need to add further water after the initial watering).
5. Because less Hemcore is used, there will be less bedding removed from the stable, making a smaller muck heap which will rot down more quickly than shavings. It then makes a useful compost or mulch for the garden.
6. Hemcore is not palatable to virtually all horses, but if the bedding is seen to be eaten, sprinkle it with a weak solution of a safe disinfectant to discouragethe habit and when adding new bedding mix it with the old. As with other bedding materials persistent eating can cause colic, gastrointestinal disorders and an allergic reaction. In these cases please consult a vet.

Brand Profile
Hemcore was established in 1993 and was later joined with Hemp Technology in 2009. The birth of Hemp Technology was due to the ubiquitous amount of hemp crops which could become an essential industrial feedstock thus preparing for a more sustainable future. Industrial hemp is now established in the UK and is helping to create a cleaner and greener world. Alternatively, the Hemcore brand manufactures a fantastic selection of horse bedding which has been proven to provide good health and well-being for horses.
Hemcore horse bedding is made from the inner core of the hemp plant stem and is produced from hemp plants that are completely based within the UK. Creating horse bedding from the hemp plant helps the environment in various ways: the hemp plant is fast growing and fully sustainable; it can be recycled into useful compost; and no chemicals or bleach is added during its growth thus providing a fully green product.
Previously, the hemp plant has been used in a variety of everyday products such as fine paper, rope and textiles. The production of this fully green horse bedding product includes:
- Stripping the outer fibres of the stem on the hemp plant
- Drying the plant
- Chopping it into usable amounts
- Extracting the dust
- Packed into heat-sealed and recyclable polythene bags.
One of the main aims when it comes to Hemcore horse bedding is to provide a completely natural and environmentally conscious way of manufacturing. In addition to the latter, there are many benefits your horse can gain from this amazing product. It is a highly absorbent horse bedding which means that your horses bed can stay drier for longer thus providing your animal with a warm and comfortable bed. It helps your horse's respiratory system by giving off a low odour and being completely extracted of dust enabling your horse to be healthy and happy. This bedding is easier to maintain than other horse bedding and is also simpler to dispose of as it can be used as garden compost.
