Anti-Itching Spray

• Can also be used in everyday professional life – especially in the trades.
• It is best to apply Ultra Grip Spray to the saddle and not to sports clothing.
• Do not grease the saddle immediately before using the Ultra Grip Spray.

How often can the product be used?

The product is completely non-irritating to the skin and can be used as often as desired, even one after the other.

Why does the Ultra Grip Spray repels water thanks to its lotus effect, can be used in wet conditions, ... but on the other hand, according to the application instructions, can only be removed with water and friction?

The description of the application refers to friction as a scrubbing and wiping technique. This is multidirectional and not typically used in everyday sports.

Does Ultra Grip Spray dry out the skin if applied directly to it?

No. When Ultra Grip Spray is applied directly to the skin, it doesn't dry out. This is one of its major advantages compared to using talc.

The Ultra Grip Spray increases performance through improved grip – everywhere, under all conditions and over the long term.

Ultra Grip Spray is based on a special keratin biopolymer complex, which creates a strong, adhesive bond on all types of surfaces. The spray can be used on the skin for a better grip, as well as on other surfaces—such as a saddle when cycling or riding a horse. It leaves no residue, as it can be removed with water through intensive rubbing (scouring and wiping technique).

The spray guarantees very strong and long-lasting adhesion – even in rain and wet conditions!

The microbran© film formed by Ultra Grip Spray exhibits a lotus effect on its surface. This prevents rain, splashes, and other water from thinning, dissolving, or even washing away the film. The lotus effect also makes Ultra Grip Spray abrasion-resistant—it typically stays in place until removed by the user.

Ultra Grip Spray is hypoallergenic, meaning it's completely non-irritating and extremely skin-friendly. It doesn't dry out the skin when applied directly.

The pH-balance© technology of the Ultra Grip Spray absorbs the alkalinity and keeps the pH value in the skin-neutral range of 5.5.

Ultra Grip Spray has a purely biomimetic keratin biopolymer base. It is 100% organic and biodegradable, making it very environmentally friendly, especially compared to many other adhesives.

The Ultra Grip Spray is:

• breathable,
• sweat-resistant,
• (salt) water resistant and
• friction-resistant

The anti-inflammatory properties of the Anti-Itching Spray:

The chitosan biopolymer complex relieves itching due to its anti-inflammatory properties. Itching is often caused by inflammation or irritation on the skin. These can have mechanical, chemical (e.g., insect bites/venoms), or even parasitic causes. The chitosan biopolymer complex reduces irritation and inflammation by reducing the production of pro-inflammatory substances – so-called inflammatory mediators – in the body. These are messenger substances released by the body in response to injury, infection, and general external irritants.

The most important messenger substances are histamine, prostaglandins, leukotrienes, cytokines, and interleukins. In combination and synergistically, they cause:

• An increase in the permeability of blood vessels, leading to swelling and redness.
• An increase in the sensitivity of pain receptors, which can cause pain.
• Activation of inflammatory cells such as mast cells, macrophages and neutrophils, which can release further inflammatory mediators and increase inflammation to further drive the immune system to fight pathogens.

However, this release generally occurs in excess. microbran© technology absorbs excess messenger substances and releases them again in a targeted manner to achieve balance. Thus, the body's immune response essentially remains intact – but excessive itching is significantly reduced, even to the point of complete elimination.

In addition, the effect of the messenger substances is more targeted, so that irritations and inflammations are combated more efficiently and subside more quickly through a more targeted release of the messenger substances and thus through a more targeted reaction of the immune system.

The keratolytic properties of the Anti-Itching Spray:

Additionally, microbran© technology has a keratolytic effect, which means it sloughs away dead skin cells, leaving skin smoother and softer. Rough, flaky skin can also contribute to itching—and removing these dead skin cells can help relieve itching.

Using microbran© technology, the spray forms an occlusive microfilm on the skin, shielding the affected area and preventing any further negative external pathogens from entering. The film is also water-repellent and sweat-resistant, so the spray remains effective even during exercise. Once absorbed, the anti-itching spray is unnoticeable on the skin, is 100% breathable, and once applied, lasts for 5-8 hours. It's therefore suitable not only for use before or after, but especially during, a workout.
