100% dust-free thanks to repeated sorting, preventing irritation of the respiratory tract and the eyes
Prevents and promotes healing of hoof abscesses, crumbling hooves, disorders and hoof rot (unlike shavings)
Prevents belly formation
May be eaten in moderation (ponies are more inclined to eat flax than horses)
Absorbs 12 times more moisture than straw, and 4 to 6 times more than wood shavings since flax loam absorbs up to 450%, leading to dryer stables
May be stored outdoors without a tarpaulin since every pallet is equipped with a waterproof covering, storage volume 1/5 of that for straw bales
Thanks to the extremely high absorption capacity of flax litter, the ammonia on the stable floor is contained, preventing unpleasant odour, thereby contributing to a reduced presence of flies and insects
Flax litter results in a relatively low manure volume for removal
