Ocean Guardian, the Australian company behind the popular shark-repelling technology Shark Shield, has collapsed into liquidation.

Documents listed by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) on Friday show Ocean Guardian Holdings Limited, and its retailer-facing operation Shark Shield Pty Ltd, will be voluntarily wound up.

The decision marks the end of a venture that has manufactured electronically-powered shark deterrents, worn by surfers and ocean divers across the world, for more than 20 years.
