Wire 2 Wire Vet Products, LLC was started in 2005 with the goal to develop unique products to improve animal health care. We concentrated on creating and bringing to market new products that are substantially different from what was previously available. While many of our products are useful across the animal world, our concentration was on equine activity. Over the years we we have worked with many products and expanded our interest to develop companion animal and even cattle products. We discovered that most of our products are not species specific.

We are proud to market quality and unique products to animal health professionals and animal owners. Our W2W Silvaplex® products and Nortev’s Flexineb® are unique and innovative additions for the care and treatment of animals.
