Since 1977, Pestell Shavings has been a trusted name in premium animal bedding. Founded by Don Pestell, a pioneer in the industry, the company began with a vision to transform softwood lumber by-products into high-quality bedding solutions for horses, livestock, and poultry.
Originally established in New Hamburg, Ontario, Pestell Shavings has grown into a North American leader, expanding operations into the United States with manufacturing for the United States based in Alabama. From this strategic southern location, we proudly serve customers throughout Florida and across the southern U.S., delivering products tailored for the region’s climate and performance needs.
For over four decades, Pestell Shavings has remained family-owned, dedicated to sustainability, quality, and innovation. Our kiln-dried softwood shavings and pellets meet the highest standards of consistency and cleanliness—trusted by farms, equestrian facilities, and distributors across North America.
