Find out what makes Bedmax special
Bedmax has become the first equine bedding company to achieve NOPS accreditation, under a new scheme launched by the British Equestrian Trade Association (BETA).
The Freeman Hospital Heart and Lung Transplant Association has been chosen by Bedmax as its anniversary charity.
To mark its 25th anniversary, Bedmax has launched a special fundraising campaign in support of The Freeman Hospital Heart and Lung Transplant Association – a charity close to the company’s heart. The campaign aims to raise £25,000 to help fund world-class transplant services and vital research that helps transform lives across the UK.
Bedding Made Specially for Horses.
We offer horse owners in the UK a range of high quality, completely natural beddings purpose made at our three dedicated factories to provide a healthy, hygienic bedding for your horses and ponies.
Our equine bedding range now includes our original low dust, large flake pine Bedmax shavings, Littlemax small flake pine shavings, and our new Strawmax straw pellet bedding for horses, and you can find full details on this site about how we make them, why we make and how to get the best out of them.
You can also find details of Stockmax 100% pine shavings for sheep and lambs, poultry and other livestock, the sustainable Hotmax fuel logs we make from the dust we extract from our shavings, and our new Catmax straw pellet cat litter.

Have you tried Hotmax?
Made by Bedmax, Hotmax fuel logs are an ideal fuel for your home in winter and for outdoor use in summer.
These high-density compacted heat logs are made from 100% natural, recycled wood dust. They’re denser, drier and burn cleaner than even the best kiln dried or seasoned hardwood logs.
They’re quick and easy to light and give you high heat fast with very low emissions and minimal ash residue.
The Bedmax Values
Horse Welfare
Our main priority since the beginning. The very core of everything we do and the reason we began producing Bedmax.
Education
We strive to help owners help their horses through research, product trialling and knowledge sharing to raise the profile of equine welfare in the stable.
The Environment
As a company, we are continually striving to minimise our impact on the environment, and to recycle as much of our waste as we can.
Sustainability
We source our pine timber entirely from sustainable UK forestry. For every tree that is cut down, a new one is planted.

We only supply our products through our network of loyal supplier customers.
Innovation
We pride ourselves on being innovative industry leaders at the forefront of what we do.
Community
Community spirit is at the heart of everything we do; both our local community and the equine community.
