Aware of the challenges posed by the risk of doping in equestrian sports, we have put in place very strict rules in the management of our production and storage of first-hand materials in order to guarantee maximum precaution for contamination. However, we would like to recall the following information:
PURSE PLANTS: exposed to possible sources of external contamination in the natural environment, it is not possible to guarantee the total safety of pure plants. Apart from the harpagophytum on the doping substances list, no other plant in the composition of our products or sold pure is recognized as doping. However, this does not guarantee the total absence of contaminants. It is therefore preferable in case of official competition to stop treatment 72 hours before the event.
FURTHER FOOD: the presence of doping substance is indicated on the product sheet and on the label. The absence of this indication means that the product does not contain any doping substance.
OUTER CARE: certain substances (e.g.mint essential oil or menthol derivatives such as camphor) have anaesthetizing or heating properties which can be assimilated to doping treatment. Even if their detection depends on their dosage and in practice this is unlikely, it is preferable to reserve their use for a refreshing purpose after the effort and stop the application 72h before an official test.
Information about our Laboratory :
Our Laboratory is at the forefront of modern production equipment and risk precaution. For maximum safety, we have put in place the following standards to prevent possible sources of contamination:
– Opening of production boxes
– Dopant/non-dopant circulation plan studied
– Ventilated ventilation throughout the laboratory
– Storage of finished products in an air-conditioned space
– Studyed and integrated cleaning plan
– Loading/unloading area protected from external pollution
