Grandis Shavings is based in the Sabie / Nelspruit area, where we produce top quality purpose-made wood shavings for the equine, poultry and pet markets. Grandis Shavings only process eucalyptus timber, as research has shown that the use of eucalyptus as an animal bedding material, is far more beneficial to the health of your animals than most other types of timber products currently being used as contact bedding, including pine shavings and industrial wood waste.Grandis Shavings have lower cytotoxic and enzyme-producing properties than most other types of bedding materials, and in addition, have a low dust content, a higher moisture absorption rate thereby reducing harmful ammonia levels. Our Eucalyptus shavings also act as a natural antiseptic, a natural decongestant and a natural fly / insect repellant. Grandis Shavings are compressed into convenient sized bales facilitating easier handling, storage and transportation. One bale equals twice the volume of a normal black bag.
