ARTIMUD ANTIMICROBIAL CLAY 750 GRAM

Clay-based antibacterial hoof putty

Artimud is intended for use in gaps in hooves that may otherwise be prone to bacterial and fungal invasion, and provides long-lasting protection against damage. It is designed to produce an environment that bacteria and fungus cannot grow in and to promote formation of healthy tissue. Its thick, clay consistency allows it to stick in cracks too shallow for the use of Hoof Stuff antibacterial packs. Containing only naturally occurring ingredients Artimud is non-toxic, safe and easy to use. Artimud is a great product for putting under Sole Support Impression Material to help maintain a healthy environment. Hoof Stuff & Artimud have been found useful for seedy toe, white line disease, deep central sulcus separation, abscess cavities, grass cracks, as well as other issues. It's active ingredients act not only to eliminate bacteria and fungus but also support natural tissue health.

Honey makes fantastic base for this product increasing its health tissue support, antibacterial powers and aiding adhesion into the hole!

Trials showed that although Hoof-Stuff was brilliant in deeper cracks and crevices in the hoof it was unable to stay in shallower cracks and on the surface of the hoof . We came upon the idea that since the only thing that consistently stuck to the areas of the foot we were trying to treat was in fact mud! So we tried to create something similar that had a beneficial rather than detrimental effect - thus Artimud was born.

Artimud can be smoothed, rolled, squashed, spread and molded to stay in the area it was put so its active antibacterial and antifungal agents can support natural tissue health.

Use Artimud in shallower, more open holes/cracks and Hoof-Stuff in deeper, tighter ones.

Artimud contains:

• Green french clay - An antibacterial clay that gives the putty its unique consistency.
• Bio-active honey - Honey has antibacterial and antifungal properties and makes the putty sticky and pliable.
• Zinc Oxide - A powerful but gentle antibacterial agent that fights bacteria and fungi and supports natural sole and frog regeneration.
• Eucalyptus oil - A highly effective antifungal and antibacterial essential oil that helps to toughen weakened structures.

All the ingredients in Artimud are there to either have an antibacterial or anti-fungal effect or to improve the consistency and hence the longevity of its effect. We have cut tea tree oil out of the formula as in very rare occasions horses can have an allergic reaction to it. In anaerobic situations it can also detrimentally effect the action of beneficial bacterium!
