WHAT ARE MICRODOTS

Microdot Technology is a process of spraying thousands of microscopic dots onto vehicles or other assets in order to provide a unique identification. Each Microdot carries this unique identification which is registered to the owner, but is not visible to the naked eye.

 

Microdots are 0.5-1.8mm in diameter discs of either polymer or nickel-based substrate with information either e-beamed or laser etched with a unique alpha numeric coding.
The Microdots are applied either by using a compressor, canister or swabbed on to the asset.

​

WHY IS MICRODOTTING NEEDED

Microdots are designed to deter theft, counterfeiting and product diversion. Microdots assist in identifying criminal activities through the identification of stolen assets, which then allows for the return of stolen goods to their rightful owners through traceability, and prosecute those involved.

​

WHERE ARE MICRODOTS RELEVANT

Great success has been achieved so far in the Parts Marking industry, such as vehicle parts, tools, spare parts. Other areas of successful application include Solar, Mining, Agricultural and General Assets industries.

​

WHEN TO CONSIDER MICRODOTS

If you have high-value, high-risk assets in your operational environment that have significant risk of theft, consider micro-dotting them with a reputable specialist to ensure that if it is recovered, it can be returned to you, the rightful owner.
