Embeddable RFID Tags for Animals
HID Glass RFID Tags deliver superior quality and reliability, featuring patented direct bonding technology that ensures an exceptional size-to-performance ratio.
Standard units are encapsulated in biocompatible glass, making them completely safe for animals. An optional parylene coating enhances and accelerates tissue adhesion, minimizing migration of subcutaneously implanted tags in pets, fish, and laboratory animals.
Larger Glass Tag models are ideal for cattle, sheep, and goats, supporting livestock production optimization through individualized lifecycle management, health monitoring, and feed control.
For bird tracking applications, small glass RFID tags can be integrated into leg bands or identification rings.
The HID Glass Tag Nano (1.2 x 8 mm) and Mini models are the smallest members of the family, offering outstanding performance in ultra-compact dimensions.
The HID Glass Tag Ultra provides extended read range compared to any low-frequency tag of similar size. Its enhanced performance reduces operator stress by increasing the distance between animals, readers, and system operators.
