Shearwell Data Ltd is a global provider of livestock identification and data management solutions for farmers, ranchers, and animal health programs. Founded in the United Kingdom, Shearwell designs and manufactures electronic identification (EID) ear tags, visual tags, applicators, and herd management software that help producers track animals, improve traceability, and manage livestock more efficiently.

Shearwell is known for its durable stainless steel electronic “MET” tags, which protect the RFID chip inside a stainless-steel housing, making them highly resistant to damage, loss, and harsh environmental conditions. These tags are widely used in cattle, sheep, and other livestock operations where long-term retention and reliable electronic reading are critical.

In addition to identification hardware, Shearwell provides integrated technology solutions, including readers, data-collection tools, and livestock-management software that enable producers to capture and analyze animal data in real time. This helps improve productivity, animal welfare, regulatory compliance, and traceability throughout the supply chain.

Today, Shearwell products are used in livestock industries across Europe, North America, Australia, and other global markets, supporting both commercial producers and national identification programs. The company continues to focus on innovation, durability, and practical solutions designed specifically for real-world farming conditions.
