The Smart Bio Block are the first biodegradable and compostable hoof block for cows. White, universal design, and available in small and large sizes. The Smart Bio Block is designed with the same benefits as its predecessor, the Original Smart Block, but with a new double slope composite. The slope gives the cow maximum lift on her injured claw for improved comfort and better gait during treatment. This hoof block gives almost 20% more lift on the ulcer and white line zones compared to the conventional 0.75-inch block. The double slope encourages the cow to walk with the block more directly under her hock or knee, increasing stability and giving the injury more rest for faster healing.

Smart Blocks are designed to reduce the amount of glue used, while creating the most secure bond possible. Ideal for herds having issues with ‘white line disease’ or sole ulcers. Perfect for treating minor lameness or cattle with thin soles. Features a slip-resistant, soft-sole protection with the same premium shock absorbing material as the Original Smart Block.

Begin by trimming the hoof flat and making sure it is completely dry and free of debris. Apply a thin strip of glue on the white line of the axial and ab axial wall of the hoof or block. Then, quickly place and hold the block on the hoof. Insert the glue tip in the glue injection hole on the bottom of the block. Inject 1 to 2 pumps of glue into the Y shaped canal. Hold the block in place for 30 seconds and wait the recommended curing time according to the glue manufacturer.
