Lamicell Ventex 22 Technology: What Is It?

There are no second chances for a horse's tendons. Lamicell's V22 collection knows this, and responds with an engineering precision previously found only in operating theatres 🩺

Lamicell: twenty years of innovation in the service of the horse

Founded in Belgium 🇧🇪 , Lamicell is today one of the most respected technical brands in the global equestrian market. The brand combines refined aesthetics and measurable performance 💪

Its philosophy rests on a simple principle: every product must deliver proven added value, whether in terms of comfort, protection or recovery. It is with this mindset that the V22 collection 🔥 was born.

Ventex 22 & Coolite: what lies behind the V22 name

It all starts with a medical observation. Tendon injuries are one of the leading causes of time off for sport horses 😢 During exercise, tendon temperature can rise dangerously, damaging collagen and weakening ligament structures. And since tendons have poor blood supply, natural cooling is significantly delayed 😊

Coolite is a rubber-sponge laminated neoprene originally developed for human medical use. Its integrated channel construction simultaneously absorbs and evacuates moisture and heat, for ultra-fast drying and remarkable heat dissipation.

What sets Ventex 22 apart are its unique mechanical properties:

• Lightweight — 20% less than all comparable breathable materials on the market, for all-session comfort.

• 360° Compression: The neoprene structure provides uniform compression around the entire limb, with no pressure points.

• Thermographically proven heat dissipation: Thermographic tests demonstrate a significant temperature difference compared to standard protection.

• Ultra-fast drying: The evacuation channels allow sweat to dissipate quickly, even during intense summer exercise.

The material is also non-toxic, shock-resistant thanks to its compression quality, and flexible enough to perfectly follow the anatomy of the limb, regardless of your horse's conformation.

Why choose the V22 range over classic neoprene?

V22 boots and tendon protectors

This is the heart of the collection. It absorbs impact through Choc Absorber Poron® technology while actively dissipating heat through its internal channels. Tendons stay at a controlled temperature during exercise, and post-session cooling is significantly accelerated. Visible results in thermography 🔥

The V22 girth

The same logic applies to the girth: unlike a standard girth, the V22 doesn't trap sweat — it draws it away. Less friction, reduced risk of elbow irritation, and near-instant drying between rides. Its detachable lower section also makes daily care straightforward.

V22 shock absorbers and accessories

The same logic applies to the range's accessories: the medical-grade material provides uniform 360° compression without creating localised pressure points. Lightweight, non-toxic and long-lasting, it retains its properties after repeated washing — a decisive factor for equipment used several times a week.

In short, V22 technology does more than protect: it regulates, evacuates and preserves, whatever piece of equipment it features in 💪

Tendons don't heal like muscles. Once damaged, they leave lasting marks. Whether you compete at weekends or work your horse every day, Ventex 22 technology adapts to your discipline — with no compromise on comfort or durability.
