Made in France

Filwood-litiere-equine

The FILWOOD story began in 2009, following a conversation between Christophe Cassard, the founder of FILWOOD, and the owner of an equestrian centre in Charente, France.

His observation was clear: traditional horse bedding materials, whether straw or wood shavings (also known as “petals”), have several drawbacks that can negatively affect horses' health, including dust and pesticide residues, digestive problems and damage to their hooves.
No other solution existed.

Christophe Cassard decided to create it. After several years of research, development and testing, FILWOOD developed a patented wood fibre bedding material, as well as a specially designed manufacturing machine.

Made from maritime pine from the Landes selected from foresters, the FILWOOD litter is 100% % natural, dust-free, untreated and non-edible.

Today, FILWOOD continues to improve its innovative bedding solution to better meet the needs of horses, horse owners and equestrian professionals.
