Animal bolus electronic ceramic tag is suitable for the identification of livestock such as cattle and sheep.

The ruminal bolus is a RFID chip (FDX‐B or HDX) sealed in a ceramic capsule, which is then placed in the reticulum of the animal. The RFID chip remains in position throughout the animal’s life and is almost impossible to dislodge or remove. While an ear tag has to be replaced several times during the life of a cow, the advantage of using a bolus is that it stays in the reticulum for the duration of an animal’s life. Today, this RFID solution is widely employed by farming operations throughout the world. This, combined with automation systems, such as milking machines and national databases, the bolus has helped many breeders improve the profitability of their farms.

Freevision offers 2 different sizes of Boluses (20gr, 70gr), which can be used in buffalos, cows, sheep and goats.

All boluses are certified by the IDEA Project Laboratory,and are compliant with the ISO standards 11784 and 11785.

The ceramic coating resists stomach acids and the smooth surface prevents the animal from loosing or regurgitating the bolus.

Coupled with Freevision reader series, animal bolus ceramic tag provides an all‐around solution in animal breeding, slaughter management. It plays an important role in the tracking and tracing of food production process
