Dust-Extracted, Recycled Cardboard Bedding for Small Animals: The Healthier, Eco-Friendly Choice

Choosing the right bedding for your small pets is vital for their comfort, health, and happiness. At S4Bed, we produce dust-extracted, 100% recycled cardboard bedding that’s specially designed for rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, gerbils, and other small animals. Shredded, dust-extracted, and packed at our site in East Grinstead, our bedding offers a safe, sustainable, and cost-effective alternative to traditional wood shavings.

Why Cardboard Bedding is Better Than Wood Shavings

Many pet owners still use wood shavings, but they can cause health problems for small animals. Here’s why recycled cardboard bedding is a superior choice:

• Dust-Extracted and Respiratory Safe – Unlike wood shavings, which release dust and oils, our bedding is dust-extracted, reducing the risk of respiratory irritation for pets and their owners.

• Non-Toxic and Safe – Small pets don’t usually chew on cardboard bedding, unlike straw or hay, making it safer for their digestive health.

• All-Season Comfort – Cardboard bedding provides natural insulation: warm in winter, cool in summer, keeping your pets comfortable year-round.

Absorbent, Odour-Controlled and Easy to Clean

Keeping cages clean and fresh is easier with absorbent cardboard bedding:

• Superior Absorbency – Soaks up moisture quickly, reducing unpleasant odours.

• Less Waste, More Value – Because it’s so effective, you use less bedding overall, making it more cost-effective than wood shavings.

• Quick Cage Cleaning – Dry, clump-free bedding makes spot-cleaning and full cleanouts faster and easier.

Eco-Friendly, Compostable and Low Carbon Footprint

At S4Bed, we’re committed to sustainability:

• Made from 100% recycled cardboard, our bedding reduces waste and gives materials a second life.

• Once used, it’s fully compostable and environmentally friendly.

• Produced and packed at our East Grinstead premises, it has a low carbon footprint, avoiding unnecessary transport miles.

Enrichment and Comfort for Small Pets

Our shredded cardboard bedding isn’t just practical – it keeps pets happy, too. It’s perfect for:

• Burrowing and tunnelling – encouraging natural behaviours.

• Nesting and hiding – providing comfort and security.

• Play and activity – stimulating enrichment to keep pets active.
