What Is Hygieia San?

Reduce the danger of contamination with the advanced pathogen control solution. This comprehensive approach covers everything from stables to changing rooms to hospitality to give peace of mind to everyone that precautions are being taken to keep them safe. Ensure the well-being of horses, jockeys, and staff by prioritizing biosecurity. Create a secure atmosphere at the racecourse for both attendees and management, enabling a continued safe sporting environment.

One "healthcare grade" solution can cover so many hygiene concerns, from cleaning horse boxes and milking parlours, through to offering veterinary sanitation, stable disinfection and the purification of drinking water. And that sense of purity extends to the environment too. Huwa-San is 100% biodegradable, including all packaging, and is non-corrosive, eco-friendly and totally safe to use on all surfaces and materials - including storage tanks, bell-drinkers, nipples and any associated leads and pipes.

Thanks to this combination of cutting-edge science and human "planet friendly" care, you could say that when it comes to caring for animals - Hygieia-San Equine is the perfect combination of "head" and "heart".

The Equine Bio Genie system aims to eradicate various threats to horses, including: Aspergillus which can cause airway restriction and bleeding, Streptococcus (Strangles) which is highly contagious, Trichophyton (Ringworm) which is a fungal infection, Staphylococcus (MRSA) which is a zoonotic infection, and Influenza 'A' (Equine Influenza). The system also aims to reduce the risk of contamination by treating objects and surfaces that come into contact with the horse, such as saddles, bridles, and lorry partitions.

Aspergillus (airway restriction and bleeding)

Aspergillus is part of the fungus family and can be responsible for airway restriction in horses that can lead to unexplained under-performance in racing, eventing or general exercise. The inflammation of the lung can result in horses 'stopping' during a race. The horse can contract this through the ingestion of spores or via airborne means. Hygieia-San Equine helps to eliminate Aspergillus, providing a healthy and safe environment for horses and helping to prevent airway restriction and bleeding in the lungs. This is important for stables and equine facilities, where poor air quality and ventilation can increase the risk of respiratory problems and disease transmission.

Streptococcus (Strangles)

Strangles is caused by the bacterium Streptococcus equi and it can have severe consequences for the health and well-being of horses. Symptoms include swelling of the lymph nodes, fever, and difficulty swallowing. Hygieia-San Equine helps to eliminate Streptococcus, providing protection against strangles and reducing the risk of outbreaks. This is particularly important for stables and equine facilities where multiple horses are housed and the risk of disease transmission is high.

Trichophyton (Ringworm)

Ringworm is caused by the fungus Trichophyton equinum and it is a common skin infection in horses. It can cause hair loss, itching, and red, circular lesions on the skin. The spores of the fungus can persist in timber, making it difficult to control in stables with wooden infrastructure. Hygieia-San Equine helps to eliminate Trichophyton, reducing the risk of ringworm infections in horses and improving the overall health and hygiene of the stable environment. The "fogging" process of the system ensures total surface application, providing effective and thorough protection against ringworm and other fungal infections.

Staphylococcus, including MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), is a type of bacteria that can cause skin infections in horses and can be transferred to humans. MRSA is a particular concern as it is resistant to many antibiotics, making it difficult to treat. Hygieia-San Equine helps to eliminate Staphylococcus, reducing the risk of skin infections in horses and reducing the potential for zoonotic transfer to humans. This is important for stable and equine facilities, where the close contact between horses and handlers can increase the risk of disease transmission.

In summary, Hygieia-San Equine is needed to provide a healthy and safe environment for horses by disinfecting the stable and improving the air quality through oxygenation. It eliminates pathogenic fungi and bacteria, such as Aspergillus, which can cause respiratory problems in horses, and it helps to overcome the challenges of poor ventilation without leaving residue or odour.
