About Somark

Somark are leaders in lab animal identification. Originally founded in 2007, Somark moved to our current HQ in La Jolla, San Diego in 2009 and set about developing innovative alternatives to the existing lab animal identification methods, which have been around for decades.

  • Our mission
  • Our solutions
  • A global presence

Our aim is threefold:

  1. Make animal ID better for the scientists and technicians to apply and use, specifically to remove mis-identification errors
  2. Ensure our animal ID solutions are better for the welfare of the animal
  3. Deliver improved efficiency for lab staff when using our solutions

Somark offers the easiest to apply and read visual identification method, and the world’s only automated ID application process, plus another world first and leader: the smallest digital identification method, our Digitail RFID Tag.

Since launching our visual ID solution, Labstamp, in 2012 customers have used this system to identify over 2 million mice.

We launched our Digitail Tag ID in July 2019 and it is now used around the world by leading CRO, Biotech and Academic / Not for Profit research organisations.

Somark supplies our solutions to customers across 3 continents, in more than 15 countries and over 300 research organisations.

Headquartered in La Jolla, San Diego we also have a presence in Asia / Pacific with our Australian team and in Europe, from the UK.
