A common phrase in the equine industry is biosecurity and what we can do to ensure we are keeping our horses as healthy as possible. Biosecurity is the set of management and hygiene practices that prevent the spread of infectious diseases among horses. The warmer climate that we are experiencing is a perfect breeding ground for bacteria and infectious diseases. In order to keep our horses performing at the ultimate level it is important to minimise the bacteria and diseases coming into the stables.
It is therefore vital to ensure that you take every precaution to minimise the spread of infectious diseases. An effective way to stop bacteria entering the stables is using anti-bacterial stable paint which helps prevent the spread of bacteria by up to 99.8%.
Stable Shield anti-bacteria paint creates a dry film that prevents the growth and spread of harmful bacteria. Stable Shield is a multi-surface paint that can be applied to wood, stone, concrete, block, steel and most plastics. This can aide a healthy environment for horses to support their respiratory systems and general well-being.
