DataDots are simply a modern way to engrave your property. Each dot is as tiny as a grain of sand, difficult to detect with the naked eye and laser-etched with a unique identifying code. This can be a Company Name and/or Business ABN number, or a unique PIN, Driver’s License, Medicare or Passport number for an individual.

The tiny dots are suspended in a liquid adhesive and are simply sprayed onto equipment from an aerosol container, instantly marking your property. They can be used on large or small assets. Everything from laptops, mobile telephones, av equipment through to white goods, tools, plant and hire equipment, motor vehicles, motor bikes, boats and other marine equipment.

Although the dots are difficult to see with the naked eye t hey show up under an ultraviolet light. Police are then able to read the dots using a microscope. This allows for identification of the goods if they are stolen and subsequently found resulting in stolen property being returned to its owner.

Anybody can use this product on anything.
