Wood pellets on concrete floor?

[Talyn]

I've been looking into wood pellets but they always seem to be used with rubber matting. I don't have mats - can they still be used directly onto a concrete floor?
Thanks!

I've used wood pellets for the last 3 winters directly onto concrete floors.
I use a thicker bed than I would onto rubber matting
Work perfectly well

Yes absolutely, as long as you have them deep enough they are fine, I find they move less than shavings/straw etc so are fine on a concrete floor. My youngster has them on a concrete floor and he never goes down to the concrete, I just have a couple of rubber mats at the front where he stands eating his hay.

Thanks - may give them a go then

Same here, mine are on concrete flooring too and as long as the bed is deep enough, horse loves it!
