Ear tags from MS Schippers

In Canada, the identification and traceability of livestock such as sheep, goats, cattle, and pigs is mandatory under national and provincial regulations.

Using approved ear tags, animals can be easily identified and tracked throughout their lifecycle. High-quality ear tags are available from MS Schippers in a wide range of shapes, sizes, colours, and print options to meet Canadian traceability requirements.

Electronic ear tags

In addition to standard ear tags, animals can also be identified using electronic ear tags. Electronic ear tags offer significant advantages over traditional tags. Each transponder can be read using a compatible ear tag reader, allowing animal information to be quickly accessed and recorded.

With electronic identification, data can be accurately read and stored without the risk of manual reading errors or incorrect overwriting. This ensures reliable traceability and gives you immediate access to complete animal records when you need them.

Oormerken geschiedenis MS Schippers

On a beautifull day in 1966 Martien Schippers talked to one of his customers, a professional dairy farmer who had trouble keeping his cows apart at his expanding farm. Martien came up with a solution to identify the cows, that soon proved to also be popular at other farms. And that is how MS Schippers was the first to introduce plastic animal identification tags in the Netherlands in 1966. Currently, our high quality ear tags are shipped to customer in over 50 countries across the globe. To meet the growing demand for animal identification solutions the group opened a new production facility for MS Eartags in Hapert in 2023.
