Manufactum horse ointment

Horse ointment is no longer an insider tip, even in the human field. Ours contains rosemary, arnica, horse chestnut extract as well as camphor and menthol, thereby has a cooling and relaxing effect at the same time and contributes to recovery after physical exertion. The gel is beneficial for joint pain, back tension, tired muscles and sore muscles. Due to the contained camphor, there may be weak crumbling, which is not a lack of quality, but a sign of the high content of active ingredients. The plant extracts give the clear gel a light brownish coloring - we deliberately do without the usual greenish coloring in the market.

We have developed a body care series according to our specifications and are cooperating for this project with two pharmacists from North Rhine-Westphalia. Based on well-thought-out recipes, all products of the series comply with our maxim: reduced to the essentials. Our partners see to it that the products of our series solely contain what serves the particular purpose. Moreover, although they are no pharmaceutical preparations, most of their ingredients – somewhat unusual for body care products – are of pharmacopoeia quality according to the current German and European Pharmacopoeia; both officinal collections set high standards in terms of purity, enrichment and freshness. Our range of products is small but well-considered, and we add only a few articles each year. Partly, the formulations derive from old officinal formulae and antiquarian pharmacopoeias; partly, we present new in-house developments based on proven elements and compounds. We attach great importance to natural ingredients and therefore completely dispense with petrochemical-based raw materials as well as synthetic fragrances, dyes and preservatives.
