ABOUT US

Here in Colorado at a mile high the air is thin and the sun is strong, especially if you are an adorable Clydesdale that is pigment-challenged with an all white muzzle like my guy.

Poor Seamus was absolutely crispy fried burning up in the Colorado sun.  I was frantic.  I tried everything from fly masks to diaper rash creams in an effort to protect his little pinky parts from the brutal sun.  You name it, I tried it. And if you don’t know Clydesdales, I am here to tell you they can be just a tad bit opinionated.

Seamus quickly grew tired of my sunscreen shenanigans.  He hated the smell of traditional sunscreens.  He hated the thick greasy feel of the diaper rash creams.  He started to hate me when he saw me coming with a new bottle of pony “torture”. Most of all Seamus and I hated that his poor little nose was red, blistered, and in a constant state of peeling.

I was at my wit’s end and decided it was time to take matters into my own hands to protect my sweet boy from the sun. I needed to listen to what Seamus was so clearly telling me he wanted in a sunscreen.  First and foremost it had to work! Then the sunscreen needed to be non-greasy, fragrance-free, and long-lasting. I added to the list of attributes that an all-natural formulation was also very important to me.  After quite a bit of research and countless trials, ZincBloc® was born.

I hope you enjoy ZincBloc® as much as both Seamus and I do and that you can sigh a little breath of relief knowing that your equine is protected from the sun.  Thank you from the whole ZincBloc team!
