Hay Creek Pallet Manufactures a Premium Ground Animal Bedding.

Our bedding product is produced by grinding dry wood waste, from old pallet wood and other wood waste we collect. The wood is ground to a fine consistency by our Roto-Chopper waste processing machine, which extracts any metal magnetically.

The finished product is a very dry (Lab Tested at the UW Experimental farm to have a 12-14% moisture content), fine texture consistency that is very absorbent with less dust. It tends to hold up longer in high moisture with out turning soggy as the traditional sawdust or shaving products do.

What types of facilities does it work well in?

The bedding is being used in many different types of facilities for dairy cattle, beef cattle, calves and horses. It goes thru augers and pumps, and will fall freely through a slotted barn floor.

Compost Bedding Facilities:

The compost bedding process continues to gain popularity in the dairy industry. As producers with these facilities are finding dry sawdust to be in short supply, they continue to experiment with different types of material in an effort to find a economical solution to this problem.

Hay Creek Pallet has taken an active role in researching the composting process, discussing our product with the UW-Experimental farm and the University of Minnesota Dairy Extension.

Our ground product does contain a substantial amount of very fine particulate. This, along with it’s low moisture content of 12-14% does promote composting . As we continue to monitor our product and research the composting process, we will determine if any additional changes can be made to our product.
