Following the success of these trials, a production facility was committed to in Finley, NSW. Since the commissioning of this plant in September 2008, STREUfex is being supplied across Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Hong Kong, Macau and Singapore with thousands of horses currently using the bedding.

DANNY O'BRIEN

"At last a 21st Century product for the modern racing industry. STREUfex is a cost effective solution that also has the benefit of being kind on the horses. Bleeders and feet problems resulting from bedding are a thing of the past."

MARK KAVANAGH

"We have changed all our boxes to STREUfex with the most high profile result coming via “Shocking” winning the 2009 Melbourne Cup. His allergies and issues with wood shavings are well documented. Whilst this has caught everyone’s attention, we are also very happy that the rest of the horses in the stable have bedding that gives them every chance to produce their best."

ANTONY THOMSON

"Here at Widden Stud in the Hunter Valley we are using STREUfex and have been very happy with the results. It is great for our yearlings as well as in the boxes for the mares."

PETER MOODY

"With multiple Group 1 winners during the spring. The results speak for themselves!"
