BALED PRODUCTS
Baled Sawdust Products
At Platts, we’re best known for our palletised Animal Bedding products. With numerous advantages to the easy-to-use baled product, it continues to be a farmer’s favourite.
All of our products are available packaged in bales, and are suitable for outdoor storage, whatever the weather, thanks to the weatherproof hood. UV protected, the plastic won’t crack or split in the sunlight for up to 12 months, so your bedding stays clean and dry until needed. Since indoor storage space is often at a premium on busy farms, why not take advantage of baled bedding for extra flexibility?
MONITOR YOUR USAGE
Farmers who’ve compared baled sawdust to bulk products have often found that when using baled product- they have an improved handle on exactly how much bedding they’re using.
Ideal for using with mechanical bedding machines, or push-along spreaders, our easy-to-handle bales making loading quick, easy and mess-free.
For cow mats/mattresses, our Powderbed and Finebed sawdust is designed to be used sparingly for the best value. Each bale is filled volumetrically, so you can expect to cover between 40-50 cubicles from a single bale! With baled product, it’s easy to monitor your usage, and keep on top of costs per cubicle!
BIOSECURITY
With biosecurity being at the top of many farmers’ agendas- you can be sure that your animal bedding is clean and free of any nasty contaminates or pests right up until usage.

All Platts pallets can be easily unloaded using pallet forks- our helpful drivers will be on hand to provide advice.
Haven’t got your own pallet forks to unload? Just let us know when you’re placing your order, and we can provide our own Moffett Unloader with Rigid Vehicles.
