The Premium Polyurethane ensures elasticity and resistance of identification ear tags.<\/p>\n

This flexibility is superior to the standard competition. ARDES ear tags release themselves<\/p>\n

more easily from restraint systems present on breedings (feed fences, barbed-wire fences,<\/p>\n

barriers\u2026) and from natural traps (boughs, brush, bramble bushes\u2026)<\/p>\n

It simulates the effect of climatic conditions on ear tags with several cycles humidity-heat-UV during 1000h. As a conclusion, the plastic material preserves performing physical and mechanical characteristics.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”The traction resistance test”][vc_column_text]The traction resistance test<\/strong>, ISO527 standard, was realized with the Technical Center for Mechanical<\/p>\n

Industry (CETIM) in order to define the strength which drives to the breaking of the connection of the<\/p>\n

identification ear tags. The calculated strength is about 35,7daN\u00a0that is to say 10% higher than the<\/p>\n

competition.<\/p>\n

The 99% retention rate<\/strong> was evaluated during a test in 60 breedings (dairy farms and suckler-cows<\/p>\n

farms) during 2 years on 4300 Cattle tagged with 4300 ARDES ear tags. 2 years later, 4265 (99.20%) placed ear tag are evaluated without defects on the animal\u2019s ear.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”The abrasion test”][vc_column_text]The abrasion test<\/strong>, ISO 868 standard, was realized with the Technical Center for Mechanical<\/p>\n

Industry (CETIM) in order to determine the abrasion resistance of the marking.<\/p>\n

The marking is certified legible after 900 abrasion turns which are equivalent to an 8 year presence<\/p>\n

on the animal\u2019s ear in breeding conditions.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”The hardness test material”][vc_column_text]The hardness test material<\/strong>, ISO 868 standard, was realized with the Technical Center for Mechanical Industry (CETIM) in order to determine the flexibility of the visual ear tags.
