Safety & Security is in our DNA 

Which is why the BID has taken delivery of 100 Selecta DNA forensic marking kits.

Tool theft remains a major problem for tradespeople across the UK, with £98 million worth of tools stolen in 2023 alone, according to a report by Direct Line.

An astonishing sum and that’s before we even look at plant, vans, office equipment, phones, bikes, the list goes on.

SelectaDNA offers a full range of property marking solutions and is ideal for protecting the assets of businesses. By combining unique DNA coding with microdot technology, the DNA not only reduces crime and property theft but also enables police to link criminals to crime scenes and secure convictions.

DNA marking is being used by many businesses that own expensive and vital IT equipment.  The forensic property marking kit is designed for small, medium and large businesses and many household names such as Howden, Balfour Beatty, Tesco and Openreach use the product.

Criminals know that DNA is the Police’s most powerful weapon in convicting criminals, meaning the DNA fear-factor acts as a huge deterrent. Criminals view items marked with SelectaDNA as too high risk and are further put off from stealing them as they have little or no resale value. 

Through prominently displaying the window stickers enclosed in each kit, you can make sure thieves will think twice before breaking in, or removing equipment, in the first place.

How it works? 

  • SelectaDNA is a patented, unique forensic marking solution that harnesses the encoding power of DNA, enabling users to mark and identify items of property.
  • The details of codes are recorded on a Police and Insurance approved database www.secureassetregister.comso that a code found on an item of property or criminal can be identified back to a specific owner or location.
