If you’re marking your property with UV pens, which you may have got from the police, there’s now a new product that will enable you to protect those marks from fading and from being easily removed.
They’re called ‘Security Skins’ and you can get them from Michael Keyte of Defend Detect Deter who you can find in our Directory here
The skin, which is placed over the mark, is made of a high polymer material, which is difficult to get off as it’s designed to break into tiny fragments when the thief tries to remove it.
The standard labels measure 60mm X 38mm and are available in quantities of 250+. Other sizes are available upon request.
Police routinely look for UV marks of all types, both on recovered property and on suspects’ clothes and it would be a shame if the UV mark you thought you’d put on the valuable item of property had faded or had been removed by the thief.
South Yorkshire Police used Security Skins to mark 50,000 boilers and Local Crime Prevention Officer, Dene Tinker, reported “Marking the boilers using Security Skins reduced boiler theft by 5% and assisted in the detection and arrest of offenders, handlers and also the recovery of boilers.”
