Give your horse the best night’s rest with Sundown’s range of high quality 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.

Our bedding products are made from 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 our straw from local farmers.

All our horse bedding products are regularly tested by a DEFRA approved laboratory for your peace of mind.

About Sundown

Sundown is owned and run by David and Rachel Cubitt. The business has been producing bedding since 1998, and our family bought the business in 2004. Since then, we have continually invested in the products and the production process, to meet the needs of our customers. We’re a farming and equine family, with our own horses and ponies, and our sons riding at various levels of competition, and for pleasure.

We are committed to sourcing British raw materials and ingredients for our products, and to supporting a more sustainable equine industry.

Eucalyptus fragrance

In 1998, Sundown was the first manufacturer to add eucalyptus 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 our customers often remark on how much they love the fresh scent of their bedding and how clean their horse’s stable smells.

Straw pellet innovation

In 2019 we launched Sun-e-bed, a new dust-free soft straw pellet which makes mucking out a breeze. This 100% straw pellet bedding is easier to handle, store, and dispose of – and highly absorbent.

New bale packaging

In 2021 we branded the packaging of our popular Sundown Green and Sundown Yellow chopped straw bedding products, to make them easier to identify in retail stores.

High Quality, Sustainable, British Made, Horse Bedding

Sundown Products are proud holders of the Royal Warrant since 2002.

Over the last 15 years a continuous programme of research, development and investment has been employed ensuring the products offered are of the highest quality. All products are made from the highest quality locally sourced straw, supporting British farmers.

Our bedding is sustainably made from a genuine annual agricultural by-product but it also rots down significantly quicker than wood products, resulting in a smaller muck heap and providing a nitrogen rich compost. All bags my be recycled.

Sundown supplies purpose made horse bedding to well known racing yards, event riders, polo teams, equestrian venues and yards country wide.
