Keratex Hoof Shield gives a transparent super-gloss ‘top coat’ finish for hooves. It dries in seconds, so the hooves won’t pick up bits of hay or shavings as soon as you apply it and it lasts all day. 
This lovely varnish leaves a crystal clear shiny finish. 
Keratex Hoof Shield is great for competitions and smart days out, or just when you want sparkly hooves!

VOLUME: 250m L bottle.  Application brush supplied.

Keratex Mud Shield Powder is a highly-acclaimed, handy, easy-to-use powder which you puff onto horse’s legs for a cleansing and waterproofing action. Use  on legs which are prone to scabs and broken skin in wet and muddy conditions. 

This light talc will give your horse’s legs a breathable, resilient coat of powder that does not absorb water (and therefore does not become sticky). It also works by making the leg hair so silky that mud cannot grip on to hair or soften the skin underneath. Further to this it will assist the horse’s natural defences against anything from mud and environmental water (such as muddy puddles and boggy fields) that might get into breaks in the skin and cause problems. 

PACK WEIGHT: 450gm easy-to-use ‘puff’ bottle.

Keratex Hoof Putty is great for repairing holes in the soles of a horse’s feet, enabling the owner to turn out with confidence after the cavity has been plugged with Hoof Putty.
Hoof Putty is particularly useful when your horse is recovering from an abscess, puncture or hoof separation.

It can be used in the following ways:

• To plug a small, uninfected puncture hole after thoroughly disinfecting the area, allowing you to turn out straight away when a poultice is not required
• To plug a puncture or hole left behind after an abscess has been cleared and drained, after thoroughly disinfecting the area, when a poultice is required.
• Farriers often use it an additional shock absorber and comforter when used between the lily pad and frog in ponies with spring grass related problems.

Keratex Hoof Putty is a semi-permanent wax that seals and stabilises hoof separation, plus it prevents grit, mud and debris getting jammed up into the hole and damaging the recovery process. The adhesive filling mixture also disinfects making it the perfect aid to recovery after punctures, abscesses and cavities.

Please note that Putty will be very hard while in the tin, as it sets to hoof type consistency naturally but will soften in your hands as you mould the shape you require before re-setting once within the hoof. Keeping the tub at room temperature prior to use or warming it gently in a bowl of warm (not very hot) water will also help with extraction of the putty from the tin.

Keratex Hoof Moisturiser is specifically designed to address dehydrated, straw-like or brittle hooves to restore natural health and vitality. 
Keratex Hoof Moisturiser has an ‘intelligent’ formula which works by restoring the correct moisture levels in the inside of the hooves and then maintaining this level for optimum hoof condition. It will stop hooves from cracking and breaking up through dehydration and it will also prevent those annoying floor-side flaps which can occur in warmer months. 
You can apply Keratex Hoof Moisturiser all over the hooves including the hoof capsule, so frogs, coronary band and heels will all benefit. Additionally, Keratex Hoof Moisturiser has the extra bonus of encouraging new hoof growth by keeping the coronary band tissue supple. 
When applied regularly Hoof Moisturiser gives a smooth and solid finish to the hoof wall as well as restoring the correct moisture levels.

Keratex Hoof Hardener formula includes a unique flexibility agent as well as a hardening agent making this the perfect product to protect your horse from: brittle, cracked, soft or weak hooves; soft, sensitive or thin soles; repeated shoe loss; transition to barefoot; hoof damage.
Keratex Hoof Hardener will strengthen and protect shod and unshod hooves, to restore soundness after sensitive soles and to prevent existing cracks from laddering up or across the hooves.
It works by cross-linking the keratins and proteins within the internal structures of the hooves, making hooves stronger from the inside out. Because it absorbs into the hooves, it will not ‘come off’ in the field, it will continue to work within the hoof whatever the weather and whatever the field conditions.
Since it first became available to horse owners in 1990 as the first product of its kind, Keratex Hoof Hardener has shown to improve hoof quality. Keratex Hoof Hardener is recommended by vets and farriers worldwide. 

VOLUME: 250mL. Application brush supplied

Designed for wet weather use, Keratex Hoof Gel forms a protective, waterproof and breathable layer over the hoof, keeping hooves water-tight and preventing them from softening, splitting or breaking up in wet, muddy conditions.  By stopping water from saturating the internal structures of the hooves, the hooves have the time, space and correct conditions for the horse to be able to restore hoof quality.

So if you find that your horse’s hooves deteriorate, soften, throw shoes or become saturated in wet or humid conditions, apply Keratex Hoof Gel all over the hoof, frog, soles and heels every other day to restore the quality and strength in your horse’s hooves. 

Hoof Gel absorbs into the hooves and therefore will not ‘come off’ in the field whatever the conditions. Once the product has absorbed into the hooves you will see that water forms droplets that simply roll off the hooves like rain off a waxed jacket or water off a duck’s back.

Good for:

• Hooves that have softened in wet conditions
• Horses prone to hoof crumble, weakness, breakage, punctures and cavities in the foot and sole
• Stabled horses or horses that suffer from hoof deterioration during wet weather

VOLUME:   1L
