Smart marking

Pipeline and heating distributor BSS Industrial is expanding its use of the innovative SmartWater system after four branches experienced a dramatic reduction in stock theft with no successful break-ins over a two year period.

The SmartWater spray system works by dousing criminals with a clear, non-hazardous liquid which marks their skin, hair and clothing.

Every SmartWater solution contains its own unique forensic code, so once an offender is marked they will carry evidence of their crime wherever they go. This provides the police with valuable prosecution evidence, which can be used to link a criminal with an offence long after it has taken place.
