UK Dairy Day
From Stand H201, Arden will be displaying its quality cattle bedding products developed specifically for use in dairy cow cubicles and loose housed pens. Products include Agrisoft kiln-dried paper crumb and Agrisorb kiln-dried sawdust, both providing effective and economical dairy bedding solutions, that also deliver many benefits to cattle health and comfort.
Dairy Bedding Products include:
Agrisoft
Agrisoft is the epitome of sustainable innovation in quality dairy bedding. Our 100% kiln-dried paper crumb bedding offers outstanding absorbency for drier beds, providing a clean and comfortable environment for dairy cows to rest and relax. This effectively helps to reduce lameness when in cubicles, while also supporting udder health. Agrisoft also benefits from an elevated pH content which helps to reduce somatic cell counts (SCC) in dairy herds associated with mastitis, contributing to improved milk yield and quality. Supplied in bulk, it is also a practical product for dairy farmers that works well with slurry or solid manure systems. Another bonus is that its high organic content can effectively improve soil fertility when spread on land.
Significantly, Agrisoft has recently had its waste product status removed and been reclassified in partnership with Essity to become a fully-fledged sustainable bedding product supporting the circular economy. It is compliant with Defra and Red Tractor regulations for use as animal bedding and certified by OF&G, making it an ideal option for organic farmers.
Agrisorb
For those who prefer a traditional sawdust bedding for their dairy cows, Agrisorb kiln-dried sawdust provides another cattle bedding option for dairy farmers. Produced by Arden Wood Shavings specifically for dairy use, and available in two grades including an Economy Sawdust option, this established bedding product remains a firm favourite with British dairy farmers. Consistently high quality, Arden’s expert manufacturing process makes this product very soft and comfortable for dairy cubicles, with excellent absorbency properties to keep the bedding drier for longer. It can be used in conjunction with cow mats. Dairy farmers find they can use Agrisorb sparingly, which makes it economical too. Agrisorb is available in bales and bulk, with deliveries to farms throughout mainland UK.
