CERTIFIED BEDDING

Certified Contact Bedding Processed from Virgin Wood Fiber

• Heat-treated to reduce bacteria and enhance absorbency

• The processing equipment will be purged and selected raw material will be introduced in the system.

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

• 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.

• 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.

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