We understand the realities of your line of work
A torn tag, an animal that needs to be re-identified
Barbed wire, feed barriers, and jostling in the holding pen: a poorly designed loop won’t last long. ARDES loops are designed to withstand impacts and stay in place for the animal’s entire life.
An illegible marking, discovered at the worst possible moment
A number that fades over the years—and it’s the DDPP inspector who points this out to you, not you. Our markings (felt-tip pen, laser, engraving) are chosen to remain legible throughout the buckle’s entire lifespan.
A procedure that causes the animal pain and wastes time
A struggling animal, an ill-fitting clip, a risk of injury or infection: the application must be quick and painless. Our clips require minimal force and provide a clean clip in a single motion.
Equipment that doesn't meet your requirements
Mud, disinfectants, UV light, extreme cold: cheap products fail after just one season. Our materials (high-strength polyurethane, stainless steel) are selected to withstand real-world farming conditions, not just lab conditions.
