Certified Bedding

Certified Contact Bedding Processed from Virgin Wood Fiber

(1) Heat-treated to reduce bacteria and enhance absorbency

(2) The processing equipment will be purged and selected raw material will be introduced in the system.

(3) The material will be packaged in lot-coded, certified-stamped bags. The lot will be identified by the sample number on the laboratory analysis.

(4) Samples will be collected at five separate times during the run and combined for a composite sample, which will be sent to an accredited laboratory for analysis.

(5) The lot will be held in storage pending the results of the analysis and will be released as certified bedding after all specifications are satisfied.

(6) A copy of the laboratory report corresponding to the lot will accompany all shipments of certified bedding.
