British Showjumping announces new partnership with pioneering equine biosecurity specialist, Equine BIO Genie.
Tuesday 28 March 2023

British Showjumping is delighted to announce Equine BIO Genie as the Official Supplier of Biosecurity to British Showjumping’s National Training Centre.
The welfare of both horse and rider sits at the heart of British Showjumping’s core values and is paramount in all we do. With the recent outbreak of Equid alpha Herpes Virus (EHV) on the Oliva Nova tour in Spain, the fear of the virus has again raised its ugly head and preventative measures are vital. Good Biosecurity is critical and Equine Bio Genie has the answer – a high-level disinfectant with no risk of chemical residue harmful to horse or environment.
As the first company to commit to specialising in the Equine Biosecurity sector, Equine BIO Genie has pioneered the field of Equine Environmental Health in the UK and beyond. With its genesis in the racing and thoroughbred sector, they have responded to the requirement for high-level infection control of viruses and bacteria, delivering a bespoke service for treating yards and event centres, as well as developing high-tech disinfectant products that horse owners can use both at home and away.
All their products are manufactured to a Medical Grade standard, 100% biodegradable and Organic compliant, yet are highly effective in eradicating all Equine bacteria, viruses, fungi and spores – proven in laboratory and field trials at the most prestigious Equine hospitals and tested at the Irish Equine Centre labs, they are peerless in their knowledge and experience of combatting equine pathogens.
British Showjumping is proud to be supported by Equine BIO Genie, and believes that everyone can, and should, benefit from their expertise.
Iain Graham, Chief Executive of British Showjumping commented:
“We want to lead by example. It is critical that we as a sport do everything we can to limit the spread of all equine diseases. We believe that everyone, everywhere can benefit from not only the use of Equine BIO Genie products but from the extensive research and development they have undertaken to get to this point. We are proud to be working with this industry-leading company to ensure the National Training Centre is a safe environment for your horses and urge as many others to do so as we can”.
In providing a suite of products and services, Equine BIO Genie is able to offer a 360-degree solution to Biosecurity in treating air, surface and water.
Helen Tuckey, co-founder of Equine BIO Genie commented:
“Biosecurity is an emotive topic in the equine world, and this alliance with British Showjumping recognises the importance of getting it right at an institutional level”.
