Paperchip (soft texture)
Softer texture pelleted
The softer texture is a crumbled pellet for use as a contact bedding for small rodents. This nesting material absorbs moisture to keep animals dry, and controls ammonia odours.
PAPERCHIP® is manufactured primarily from used newspapers and is the result of years of extensive lab testing. It is available in two different textures, each available in 15.8kg (35lbs) autoclavable paper bags.
PAPERCHIP®
• Absorbs ammonia odors
• Environmentally responsible
• Dust-free
• Autoclavable
• Made from recycled newspaper
Benefits
Long-lasting – In controlled laboratory tests, PAPERCHIP® has proved to be significantly longer lasting than common woodchip products. This not only saves on bedding cost, but it also saves labour required to change the bedding.
Absorbs Odour – PAPERCHIP® has proved to be significantly better than woodchip products at controlling NH3 production. This results in longer bedding life and a more pleasant laboratory environment.
Very Absorbent – PAPERCHIP® will absorb up to 400 percent of its weight in liquids, keeping your animals dry.
Environmentally Responsible – PAPERCHIP® can be incinerated with less than 2% ash content. It is also completely biodegradable and makes an excellent composting material.
Dust-free – In sieve tests, less than 1% will fall through a No. 20 sieve. That means a healthy, clean environment for your staff and animals.
Easy Cleanup – PAPERCHIP® will not stick or cake to cages or pans, which makes for easy removal.
Autoclavable – The 15.8kg (35lbs) paper bag is designed so the product can be autoclaved in the bag.
PAPERCHIP® retains its consistency and odour-control properties when autoclaved.
