Environmental Enrichment

The Andersons Shred-n’Rich

4" x 2"

Shred-n’Rich provides the perfect environmental, physical and mental stimulant for rodents and burrowing animals—it promotes natural nesting behavior and aids in thermoregulation. It’s easy to dispense and ensures portion-controlled distribution of enrichment material, helping to keep per diem costs on track. Material may be transferrable at cage change, providing habitat acclimation for animals and further reducing overall costs. With no pulling, tearing or prepping required, Shred-n’Rich can be removed from packaging and immediately dispensed into cages. It absorbs seven times its own weight of aqueous liquids, and the bright white color aids in post-operative or toxicology observations. As a virtually dust-free product, Shred-n’Rich is perfect for use with nude mice and avoids clogging. Shred-n’Rich is available irradiated or non-irradiated. Certified product and its documentation is available as a value added option. This product can be autoclaved in-situ or in bulk.

Enrichment is Key to Animal Welfare

Just like humans, animals need a chance to exercise their minds and have control over their environment. And like humans, lab animals also enjoy toys and treats! That's why environmental enrichment is key to animal welfare—minimizing boredom, stress and stereotypic behaviors such as pacing and rocking. It's as essential as proper nutrition to the well-being of the laboratory animals under your care. 


Enrichment products offer animals experiences similar to those they encounter in the wild, such as the opportunity to nest, build, forage, explore and exercise. The result? Happier, healthier animals! 


ASAP offers edible, non-edible and enhanced enrichment for all species. We will work closely with you to recommend the best solutions to create a stimulating, interesting environment for your animals that promotes natural behaviors.
