Equine bedding
We specialise in manufacturing the highest quality, purpose-made horse bedding from local, British straw.
100% British straw
We have full traceability on every bale that enters our production facility, and we keep our carbon footprint as low as possible by sourcing most of our straw from local farmers.
Low dust bedding
Our investment in a unique vacuum de-dusting process, which we perform twice on each bale, means our bedding products have very low levels of dust, for a healthy stable environment.
Sustainable bedding
Since 1998, Sundown has been producing sustainable, environmentally-friendly horse bedding to give the nation’s horses and ponies a good night’s rest.

Eucalyptus fragrance
In 1998, Sundown was the first manufacturer to add edible, food-grade eucalyptus fragrance to its horse bedding products, to improve the stable environment. It is still a key feature of our Sundown Green and Sundown Yellow bedding products, and now new Sundown Purple.
Our customers often remark on how much they love the fresh scent of their bedding and how clean their horse’s stable smells.
Choose Chopped Straw Horse Bedding For Better Horse Welfare
Despite straw being a traditional bedding material that’s been used for hundreds of years, it started to fall out of favour from the 1980s.
Recently, researchers, vets, and trainers within the equine industry have been encouraging the use of straw bedding to improve the welfare of stabled horses.
Chopped straw beings all the advantages to welfare with the convenience of being easy to manage.

Choose Sunebed this season to save both time and money. A soft, straw pellet that does not need watering and creates an absorbent and cushioned bed. Now is the ideal time to trial this bedding. You will be amazed how little waste you take out and how easy Sunebed is to use. #muckingoutmadeeasy #horsebedding #strawpelletsforhorses #strawpellets #stablemanagement
Did you know that Sundown bedding is highly biodegradable. The structure of straw means that it rots down quickly to form a nutrient rich compost. This makes our bedding popular at events like the Pony Club Championships where the bedding can be spread on neighbouring land and with farmers country wide who would rather remove straw based muck heaps than those based on wood.#sustainablehorse #horsecare #straw #stablemanagement #horsebedding
We loved receiving this review and to hear how Sundown Yellow is such an ideal bedding for Bertie.
‘Bertie is a dressage cob and we compete together in British Dressage. He’s such a big part of my life and I’m always looking for things that keep him comfortable and make stable life a little easier!
We absolutely love Sundown Yellow Bedding. It keeps his stable lovely and clean and, most importantly, fresh. It’s honestly the most absorbent bedding we’ve ever used and has made such a difference to our daily routine.
And with a white horse, anything that helps keep him clean is a huge bonus! 😂🤍
We’re really pleased with it and wouldn’t want to be without it now! 🥰’ #horsebedding #horsebeddingpremium #horsecare #stablemanagement #equestrianlife
