Company formed in 2012. Cosy calf is the Registered
Designer and supplier of calf jackets used in the
agricultural industry. The product is for use from birth up
to around 5 weeks of age on calves. The benefits of
using calf jackets is to make better use of energy from
feed for growth rather than warmth thus making cost
savings of feed and bedding. The jackets allow for better
ventilation in calf rearing areas so as to reduce the out
breaks of pneumonia.
Trials have shown much better growth rates and
significantly reduced cases of pneumonia and scours in
calves with jackets. Targets of getting heifers into the
parlour by 2 years of age mean that growth rates start
from day one. A calf uses 2% of its energy from feed for
every 1 degree below 10 degrees C if it is under a
month old, therefore at 0 degrees C the calf uses 20%
of its energy from feed just to keep warm.
In the UK now the majority of farms use calf jackets as a
matter of protocol on all caves under a month old when
the temperature drops below 10 degrees C.
A great return on your investment.

saddlepads, numnahs and accessories at their base in
Somerset, England which are sold around the world.
Their team of highly skilled designer, cutters and
machinists produce a range of over 50 product lines. In
addition, the company has a very busy made to
measure section which makes bespoke products for
companies and individuals plus a high quality
embroidery facility which produces pads for a host of
well known companies.
NuuMed saddlepads and numnahs are known for their
design and fit which ensure they work with the horse by
following the contours of the back and sitting up into the
gullet of the saddle to ensure no pressure points – and
they also sit very neatly with the saddles. All the
products are catagorised into specific equestrian
activities including jumping, dressage, endurance,
racing, anti slip and corrective.
Other notable points about the NuuMed range are the
use of British wool – the best natural hi-tec material
available, the durability of the products which are all
machine washable and the fact that they are British
made.
The 2016 Olympics will be the third consecutive games
where all the GB equestrian teams will be wearing
NuuMed saddlepads.

Web : www.hufdesign.co.uk
HŪF Design was founded by Emma Lawton who saw
the need for a new type of feed scoop when she was
feeding her horse one freezing January morning and
she had to take her hands out of her gloves to break up
the frozen feed. She wished she had a feed scoop with
teeth.
The SKŪP is the first product from HŪF Design. It was
launched at the BETA International Trade Fair in
February 2015 where it won the Innovation Award for
Horse Care Equipment and Horse Clothing.
The SKŪP has been intelligently designed to resolve the
shortcomings in traditional feed scoops. It has very
clear measuring guides making consistent and accurate
feeding easy. Its elongated profile will reach into the
corners of feed bins. The integrated handle allows you
to hold the SKŪP comfortably. The SKŪP stands up
and is stackable making it easy to store. What makes
the SKŪP so innovative is the teeth which break up
sticky and compacted feed without having to use your
hands.
The SKŪP has been for sale in the UK for the last year
and HŪF Design would now like to give you the
opportunity to buy the SKŪP in your country.

Verm-X is a 100% natural, safe and effective formulation
for supporting intestinal health. Having such a powerful
and effective product containing only herbs for
supporting intestines during periods of challenge and
that promotes health is a revelation.
Conventional drugs cannot do all of these things. In
these days of over-reliance on petroleum products &
drug resistance it’s reassuring to know there is a product
one can rely on that provides cover without damaging
ourselves, our animals or our planet.

medicine. There has always been a place for herbs.Animal Cluster Presentation Brochure 12
