Manufacturer: Equicast Inc.
Equicast can be used with shoes like conventional shoeing methods using nails, or glue or with cast alone. This benefits the horse that needs extra protection (cast) for hard training and/or surfaces or traction (shoes) and pronotes stronger, heathy hoof growth. The unique wrapping process does not require any additional pads this keeps support where it is needed and moisture anway from the sole and walls.
 
Equicast Temporary Support System (ETSS) adds support to the whole hoof capsule this temporary dynamic support allows nature time to grow a strong healthy hoof wall. Horses that have worn shoes often do not have proper mechanical dynamics within the hoof capsule. This lack of proper sole and frog dynamics (too much of too little pressure) often results in a compromise to the blood supply (hemodynamic & lymphatic system). This lack of proper stimulation may predispose a horse to many common hoof lameness issues like navicular, white line disease, and shelly walls. ETSS is helping many horses transition from wearing shoes all the time to barefoot. Pulling shoes and going directly to barefoot may be painful for some horses with unhealthy hooves. The health of some hoof walls have suffered because of wearing improperly applied shoes and/or poor trimming techniques. It’s like someone that has had an injury a temporary support system helps until the injury heals. Horses that have poor hoof walls, soft soles, log toe low heel syndrome etc. may need temporary support until a healthy hoof wall grows.

Equicast has proven that adding temporary dynamic support helps restore a healthy functional hoof faster than a horse that is turned out for months with no support or horses that limp around waiting for a better hoof wall to grow.
