Poynton Ltd and the Imprint^® Equine Foot Care System were established in March 2000 by Andrew Poynton after many years of research and development. Andrew, a Fellow and an examiner for the Worshipful Company of Farriers, specialises in remedial farriery and manages the Poynton Farriery Clinic in Malmesbury, Wiltshire. Andrew developed the Imprint^® Equine Foot Care System which has revolutionised the way in which a number of hoof care problems, including laminitis, are treated. The system utilises low-melt, thermoplastic technology that enables the shoe to be hand-moulded and glued to the hoof without the need for nails. Their application to a carefully trimmed and balanced foot, preferably with the aid of radiographs, is non-traumatic and the recovery rates are consistently good. The Imprint^® Equine Foot Care system is prescribed by leading equine veterinarians and fitted by experienced farriers both nationally and internationally.
