The Shark Shield Product Range
The KwaZulu-Natal Sharks Board ceased distribution of the SharkPOD in 2001. Rights to use the intellectual property were licensed to a South Australian based company, SeaChange Technology Pty Ltd (renamed as Shark Shield Pty Ltd in October 2006) who launched a product line under the brand name Shark Shield in April 2002.
In 2007 Shark Shield introduced the SCUBA7 as a replacement for the FREEDOM4. The company also introduced new designs, the FREEDOM7 for free diving, snorkeling or kayak fishing, and the SURF7 designed to be fitted on a surfboard or paddleboard.

Famous quotes containing the words shark, shield, product and/or range:
“Oh, the shark has pretty teeth, dear—
And he shows them pearly white—
Just a jackknife has Macheath, dear—
And he keeps it out of sight.”
—Bertolt Brecht (1898–1956)
“Vice is its own reward. It is virtue which, if it is to be marketed with consumer appeal, must carry Green Shield stamps.”
—Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)
“Culture is a sham if it is only a sort of Gothic front put on an iron building—like Tower Bridge—or a classical front put on a steel frame—like the Daily Telegraph building in Fleet Street. Culture, if it is to be a real thing and a holy thing, must be the product of what we actually do for a living—not something added, like sugar on a pill.”
—Eric Gill (1882–1940)
“Lord Bateman prepared for another marriage,
So both their hearts so full of glee.
‘I will range no more to foreign countries
Now since Sophia have a-crossed the sea.’”
—Unknown. Young Beichan (l. 81–84)
