Solheds Derma10 Hoitovoide Heel Balm

Solheds Derma10 Heel Balm. Derma10 is a water-free cream cream for horses, dogs and cats. It provides protection for dogs’ paw pads in extreme stress (agility, hunting). Derma10 cream is absorbed well and enhances the renewal of skin in injured and cracked paw pads. Derma10 is also used as a horses’ hoof moisturizer. Derma10 assists in maintaining the normal moisture balance of the hoof wall and provides beautiful shine without impairing the hooves’ own normal function.

Derma10 is an excellent natural choice when the need is for thicker “parafine/vaseline” based cream. E.g. hardening of the skin and corner of the mouth.

Instructions: Apply on paw pads prior excessive strain/activity and again in the evening before night time. Apply on horses’ hooves when required, often the need is limited to around coronet band.

SOLHEDS – SUSTAINABLE GREEN CHOICE
Finnish company Tilla Oy was founded on 2013 to include Solheds brand and Derma product line. The company’s aim is to improve the well being of animals. - Our products are biologically degradable and a safe choice for animal care with respect to the nature.

As a company, we aim to develop top of the range, quality products for the wellbeing of animals. To reach our goal all products are manufactured using the best natural products and utilising research and development processes similar to pharmaceutical companies.

The founding member, Saija Pihkanen has masters degree in Biochemistry. She worked previously as a scientist in the faculty of veterinary medicine and has worked in executive positions in both bio- and pharmaceutical companies since 1995. She has extensive experience in marketing scientific innovation, sales, product development and project management. Saija is also an owner of Solhed – horse farm, managing horses, cats and dogs. SOLHEDS brand is named after the farm. The company name comes after Saija’s precious Finn horse mare Tilla, the horse for whom the products were originally developed for.

Derma product line is the company’s own innovation. The innovator Saija, has since 2000 studied summer eczema and developed various natural remedies for it. As an owner of a horse farm, Saija was familiar with the skin problems in her own horses. She found none of the products in the market effective in treating summer eczema, so she decided to use her expertise in developing a product herself. Her background in biochemistry and pharmaceuticals gave her an edge in developing a product that created an interest in other horse professionals, companies and veterinarians. This encouraged Saija to found Tilla Oy and focus in research and development of wellness products for animals.


The pH of the products is adjusted to ~ 7, which is in the pH range of the skin of horses, dogs and cats.
