Premium Bedding: Heuland® Forest Floor – The Best of Nature, Perfectly Preserved
We go the extra mile for you for premium hay quality! Our production process is unique and complex. Our Forest Floor is not the cheapest bedding on the market, but it is one of great, reliable quality.
High-quality hay as a raw material alone is not enough to achieve premium quality. Only gentle, technical drying reliably preserves all important nutrients, trace elements, and minerals. The original green color is also retained. We utilized this knowledge in the development of our Forest Floor bedding.
Together with strong partners from agriculture and our versatile packaging technology, an exceptional bedding product has been created. Unlike forest floor from other manufacturers, which is often only partially dried and therefore susceptible to mold, our machine drying offers two decisive advantages: The natural ingredients and essential oils are preserved. The bedding is guaranteed mold-free and extremely stable in storage.
The Forest Floor bedding is suitable for rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens & horses. It offers particular advantages for horses: The almost dust-free structure is gentle on the respiratory tract. The natural, skin-friendly materials can reduce irritations and allergies. The bedding relieves the joints with its resilient layer and facilitates manure disposal thanks to its strong moisture binding.
Say Goodbye to Bedding Changes – Extreme Durability for Six Months and More
A major advantage of this bedding is its extreme durability. It can remain in the enclosure for up to six months or longer, saving time and costs. Over time, a firm, durable mat forms in the lower area, which does not need to be replaced. The upper layer can be easily loosened, allowing liquid to seep through effectively.
Maintenance is uncomplicated: It is sufficient to remove soiling daily, refill a little every two weeks, and only about 20% of the bedding needs to be replaced approximately every three months. Even moist bedding can be reused after drying.
For the bedding to function optimally and unfold its full performance, it is recommended to apply a layer of at least 10 cm. Within the first one to two weeks, the surface typically settles by about 5 cm – regular topping up maintains the ideal height and ensures the maximum functionality of the Forest Floor bedding.
Origin and Sustainability – Heuland® Forest Floor from the Kobernaußer Forest
HEULAND® FOREST FLOOR COMES FROM REGIONAL FORESTS of the Kobernaußer Forest. The raw material used arises entirely naturally as part of sustainable forestry. Only green, dense branch material that is carefully selected is used for Heuland® Forest Floor. This material arises naturally during forest thinning. During thinning, specifically selected trees are promoted – for example, the strongest and most valuable ones. This keeps the forest stable and healthy. At the same time, wood is obtained as a raw material for the construction industry and as heating material.This sustainable forestry ensures that the material removed is naturally replaced or reforested. The targeted removal of diseased or unstable trees protects the forest and strengthens its resilience.
THIS IS HOW THE CLIMATE STAYS PERMANENTLY FRESH
Heuland Forest Floor bedding convinces with outstanding absorbency and natural odor neutralization for a noticeably pleasant stable climate.
DURABLE AND COST-SAVING
Once laid out, the Forest Floor bedding remains in the enclosure for up to half a year or even longer. An economical and low-maintenance solution for you.
PROMOTES NATURAL BEHAVIOR
The special structure of the Forest Floor bedding promotes natural digging and scratching and ensures greater well-being as well as healthy, active animals.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY & SOFT
The bedding is completely biodegradable and therefore not only environmentally friendly but also particularly comfortable and safe as a soft base for your animals.
LOW DUST
The low-dust Forest Floor bedding is ideal for sensitive airways and ensures a clean, safe environment.
PERFECT FOR INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE
Whether indoors or outdoors, this bedding is ideal as a sole substrate and offers your rabbits a natural and cozy home.

Product information
Heuland Forest Bedding 40 Liters – Natural Forest Floor for Happy Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Chickens & Horses
The Heuland Forest Bedding brings a piece of natural forest directly into your animals' home. It consists of 100% natural fir and spruce needles with small wood particles and creates a soft, springy surface that perfectly mimics the natural habitat of your rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, and horses. Thanks to its extremely high absorbency, it binds moisture and odors effectively and ensures a pleasant stable and enclosure climate for a long time.
For optimal effectiveness, lay a layer at least 10 cm high – higher is even better. After one to two weeks, the surface sinks about 5 cm, so regular refilling is important.
Its remarkable durability is particularly practical: the bedding lasts up to six months or longer in the enclosure, as a firm mat forms in the lower layer that remains in place and does not need to be replaced. You can regularly loosen the top layer so that urine can seep down. Maintenance is easy – remove dirt daily, refill every two weeks, and replace only about 20% every three months. Even wet bedding can be dried and reused.
Especially comfortable for horses: The bedding is low-dust and protects the respiratory system, while the skin-friendly, natural materials minimize skin irritation and allergic reactions. The natural scent of the forest bedding has a calming effect on horses and improves the stable atmosphere. Additionally, the soft, springy character provides high comfort, helps prevent pressure points and joint problems, and reduces manure volume thanks to effective moisture absorption.

klare Empfehlung
Ich nutze die Waldboden-Einstreu nun seit ca. 2 Wochen und bin sehr zufrieden mit der Qualität. Der Geruch im Stall super gut, viel besser als vorher. Meine Pferde scheinen sich darauf wohlzufühlen. Ich kann den Waldboden als Einstreu nur Emfehlen.
