Nupsala’s Summer Half Day BBQ – Celebrating a Year of Wins ☀️

After a busy year of innovation, collaboration and progress, it was time to take a well-earned break and come together to celebrate everything the Nupsala team has achieved.

Our Summer Half Day BBQ was the perfect way to do just that, bringing colleagues and families together for an afternoon of good food, connection and reflection.

Highlights included:
- A delicious BBQ enjoyed in the sun
- Funny awards given out, with cake jars for the winners
- Games that encouraged teamwork and plenty of laughs
- Strengthening relationships across teams, colleagues and families
- Reflecting on the achievements and progress made over the past year

It was a well-deserved celebration of the hard work, creativity and team spirit that continues to drive Nupsala forward.

Thank you to everyone who made the day so memorable. Here's to another exciting year ahead.

A quick heads-up! 📢

On 7th & 8th August 2025, we’ll be taking some time out for essential work behind the scenes - including an operations review, team development and a GDP training. We’ll also be squeezing in a little team practical BBQ to say thanks to our dedicated staff for all their hard work.

This means: No orders placed with suppliers or processed on these days
Phones will be on emergency calls only during the morning of 7th August

To avoid any delays, please place your last orders by Wednesday 6th August at 1pm so we can ensure they’re processed for Thursday delivery. Orders placed after this time will be collected on Monday 11th August for Tuesday 12th August delivery.

We appreciate your understanding while we take this time to train, refresh and continue improving the service we deliver to you every day. Thank you for your support!

It’s been a few weeks since our Intra-Articular Injections CPD session at Harper Adams, and we’d like to take a moment to congratulate all the delegates who completed the course. 💉🐾

As part of the day’s wrap-up, Ross Allan shared a creative take on osteoarthritis education with a surprise for attendees that we couldn’t not share!

Delegates were given OA Emoji Gang T-shirts - a fun and memorable way to introduce the joint organ concept. The emojis represent different cell types within the joint, highlighting how managing OA involves more than just cartilage. 🦴🧠💪

A comment from Ross Allan:

“Thanks to all delegates who attended the intra-articular CPD, and to Nupsala for the invite to speak and their team’s support to make the day educational, innovative and fun!

The aim of the day was to widen delegates awareness of intra-articular therapeutics, whilst increasing their confidence placing needles into joints for diagnostic as well as therapeutic purposes.

I’d like to say a particular thanks to Drew Tootal for his case examples from MSK Vets. The patient pressure data is really interesting and added context to our discussions about this developing area”.

Nupsala is proud to announce the launch of the Intibio A*M (Alpha-2-Macroglobulin) processing kit, now available exclusively in the UK through Nupsala. Developed by Intibio, this innovative kit introduces several technical modifications and enhanced levels of essential proteins and growth factors.

Our new Intibio A*MG kit provides an evidence based orthobiologic solution based on a patented technology using unique filters. The Intibio A*MG kit results in the highest A*MG levels (and volume), total protein amounts and growth factor levels in comparison to commercially available alternatives.

To further support veterinary professionals, Nupsala now also offers its own centrifuge system. This system is designed to work seamlessly with the Intibio A*MG kit and other A*M products, offering vets a complete and flexible solution for A*M processing.

Prof. Dr. Jan H. Spaas (CEO of Intibio):
“The partnership combines our cutting-edge orthobiologics technology with Nupsala’s scientific approach, deep market knowledge and established distribution network, ensuring that veterinarians in the UK are equipped with high-quality tools to support patient outcomes.”

Greg McGarrell, CEO of Nupsala, commented:
“The Intibio A*M processing kit represents the next evolutionary step in equine orthobiological therapies - offering veterinarians a high-quality, accessible solution grounded in science.”
