For Farriers & Veterinarians

A Modern Opportunity for Better Hoof Support, Efficient Workflows, and Practice Growth

Hoof care is evolving.

Advances in digital design, materials science, and additive manufacturing are expanding what’s possible in horseshoe design, not to replace traditional skills, but to support them with modern tools that prioritize comfort, efficiency, and responsible innovation.

If you’re a farrier or veterinarian interested in offering custom-fit, glue-on, 3D-printed horseshoes, we provide multiple ways to participate:

  • Reseller partnerships
  • On-site 3D printing at your clinic
  • Franchise-style practice models
  • Collaborative research participation

All built around professional standards, practical application, and horse-first care.


Why Consider 3D-Printed, Custom Shoes?

Precision Fit Without Forging Time

Digital design allows shoes to be shaped around a horse’s actual hoof geometry, reducing the need for extensive hot or cold modification.

This can support:

  • Less time at the anvil
  • Faster turnaround per horse
  • More time for assessment and care
  • Consistent, repeatable results

For many practices, this means the ability to see more horses per day without compromising quality.


A Nail-Free Option for Compromised Hooves

Glue-on systems allow shoes to be applied without nail penetration, which can benefit horses with:

  • Fragile hoof walls
  • White line disease
  • Laminitic changes
  • Thin or compromised horn
  • Poor nail retention

This expands your therapeutic toolkit while preserving wall integrity.


Consistent, Repeatable Results

Once a design is established for a horse, it can be:

  • Digitally stored
  • Reproduced accurately
  • Modified as the hoof changes
  • Delivered without repeated fabrication time

Consistency supports efficiency, reliability, and professional confidence.


Reseller, Franchise & On-Site Printing Opportunities

Reseller Partnership

Offer custom 3D-printed shoes directly to your clients without investing in equipment. We handle production; you focus on application and care.


On-Site 3D Printing at Your Clinic

For practices interested in greater control and faster turnaround, we offer pathways to:

  • Install approved 3D printing systems
  • Produce shoes in-house
  • Customize designs locally
  • Reduce shipping delays
  • Increase service flexibility

This allows your clinic to integrate digital hoof support directly into daily operations.


Franchise-Style Practice Model

For professionals seeking long-term growth, we offer a franchise-style opportunity that provides:

  • Access to validated designs
  • Training and support
  • Equipment guidance
  • Brand alignment
  • Ongoing technical development
  • Collaborative research participation

This model is designed for clinics that want to build a modern, specialized hoof-care offering within their own practice.


More Horses, Same Care Standards

By reducing time spent on forging and manual modification, many professionals can:

  • Maintain high care standards
  • Increase daily appointment capacity
  • Focus on assessment and fit
  • Spend more time on clinical decision-making

Efficiency doesn’t mean rushing,
It means working smarter with better tools.


A Commitment to Research & Responsible Innovation

Our work is grounded in:

  • Long-term real-horse experience
  • Collaboration with farriers and veterinarians
  • Ongoing design refinement
  • Comfort-focused development
  • Practical field usability

We continue to refine our approach through experience, observation, and professional collaboration, not hype.


Improving the Environmental Footprint of Hoof Care

Traditional shoe fabrication can involve:

  • Repeated heating
  • Fuel consumption
  • Metal waste
  • Inefficient shipping

Digital manufacturing allows for:

  • Reduced material waste
  • Localized production
  • Lower energy intensity per unit
  • On-demand fabrication

While no system is perfect, we actively pursue more sustainable, responsible production methods where possible.

Better tools shouldn’t come at the planet’s expense.


Built for Collaboration, Not Competition

We work with professionals, not around them.

Our goal is to:

  • Support farriers
  • Respect veterinary oversight
  • Improve horse comfort
  • Expand available options
  • Maintain professional standards

Innovation works best when it’s collaborative.


Who This Is For

This opportunity is best suited for:

  • Therapeutic or specialty farriers
  • Veterinarians working with hoof pathology
  • Clinics handling compromised hooves
  • Practices seeking efficiency
  • Teams interested in modern tools
  • Professionals exploring growth models

If your focus is comfort, precision, and practical solutions, this may be a good fit.


Final Thought

Better tools don’t replace skill.
They support it.

Custom, 3D-printed horseshoes offer a modern option for professionals who want to:

  • Work efficiently
  • Expand services
  • Improve comfort
  • Support hoof health
  • Grow their practice responsibly

Progress in hoof care doesn’t come from abandoning tradition,
It comes from building on it.
