1978: Creation of society and launch of ointments
Society's adventure began in the late 1970s. The company's founders, Mr. and Mrs. Mathorel, are engaged in the production of ointments made from Laurier oil and guaranteed without tars.
The range initially composed of blond and black ointments gradually enriched with a Keratine version and a Cade oil version for wet periods. The specificity of the recipe and the method of manufacture make it a first quality product that is perfectly resistant to temperature variations.
Today, the range includes more than 20 references.
Each formula is available in multiple formats (from 500ml pot to 20kg seal) and in liquid versions.
1990: The supply of care products is emerging
In addition to the intense production, the ESC Laboratory uses its expertise in gels and ointments and launches new care products for hoofs. The Hippercorn based on sweet almond oil, known for its regenerative properties of the horn is created following a special order for horses of complete participants in the Australian Olympics.
The company also diversifys on the tendons and joints segment by developing lotions and preparations to relieve the limbs after the effort (equittenon gel, Astrinjambe, Hippo tendons more...).
Skincare products, shampoos, disinfectant solutions, skincare creams for wounds, lesions, tars, warts and insect protection lotions will gradually complete the range.
2000: Launch of food supplements
In order to meet the growing interest of riders and owners in complementary phythotherapeuthic products, the ESC Laboratory uses its knowledge of plants to diversify its offer.
A branch specialized in herbal therapy and phythonutrition through the production of herbal supplements is created. The number of plant components purchased in cut form or in essential oils, forming part of the composition of the products is diversified in order to select the natural properties adapted to the multiple equine pathologies and fragility.
Today more than 100 different species are included in the product composition, mostly enriched with vitamins, minerals, sea algae and trace elements. The range of more than 90 references makes it possible to contribute to the proper functioning of the equine organism by subscribing to a specific food programme complementary to the basic ration.
