The Andersons is a diversified company conducting business across North America in the grain, ethanol, plant nutrient, logistics, and consumer retail sectors.

The Andersons is taking the same dedication and deep market knowledge that filled our elevators with grain almost 70 years ago to create fresh ways to serve our customers. We’re building a cutting edge network of transportation and logistics facilities that maximize our reach. We’re expanding into new markets using patented technology to take our businesses further, faster. We’re developing a line of products that make the grass greener and the yield bigger.

We’re repurposing today’s resources into useful solutions for tomorrow and joining the quest for a world run on renewable energy. We’re finding a way to compete on a global level and still feel like a small business, and never losing sight of our simple goal of serving God by serving others.

We’ll be fair and honest, tried and true, because those are the things that got us here. The Andersons story has as much to do with ingenuity as it does with legacy. A story about enduring relationships. A story about a team that is going beyond the ordinary; beyond the status quo; and beyond expectations.

Cob Products

The cob side of our business services two distinct business lines: laboratory animal bedding products and industrial cob products.

Laboratory Animal Bedding
As the sole manufacturer of Bed-o’Cobs^®, The Andersons has provided the research community with the most trusted name in bedding since 1962. While we began with a single product (1/4″ Bed-o’Cobs bedding), our premium product offering today includes 15 of the highest quality bedding, enrichment, nesting and specialty products.

As rodent work gained popularity in the 1960’s, Bed-o’Cobs was quickly recognized as “the bedding of choice” throughout the industry. As DNA mapping and genome work began in the 1980’s, we continued to improve our products and services in accordance with researchers’ desires for the highest quality in bedding for their animals and studies.

While we were first known by our Bed-o’Cobs branded products, our product line now includes a much broader selection, aimed at making an unnatural environment more natural. From irradiated and qualified products available in autoclavable and bulk bags, to sterility and heavy metal testing, we also provide a number of services to the industry.
