Who is Using Data Dots?
It works! DataDots are the way of the future because they tackle the reason why a theft occurs head on. For the first time it is now economical and non damaging to identify individual items from artwork through to vehicles with so many identifiers that the item becomes undesirable for a thief to steal it. In case studies it has been proven that an item that has been marked with DataDots is 80% less likely to be stolen by a thief as the risk of being caught and prosecuted is too great.
The following achievements show how effectively the DataDot system works as a theft deterrent.
- Nissan North America have implemented the DataDot system to prevent the theft of Xenon Headlights on Maximas
- Avis & Hertz Rentals in South Africa are using DataDots to prevent parts swapping
- Kubota, are applying DataDots to construction equipment to reduce the chance of equipment being stolen.
- A motorcycle "aftermarket" program operates in the UK and parts of Europe. Motorcycle theft in the U.K. has fallen from 21% of all registered bikes to 10% of
"identified" bikes over a period of two years.
- Motorcar manufacturers/distributors/dealers in Australia, include DataDots as standard fitment. These include BMW/Mini, Porsche, Holden Special Vehicles (GM) and Ford Performance Vehicles, Mitsubishi (Ralliart) and Subaru.
- The significant drop in Harley Davidson thefts in Australia is due to the DataDot system being implemented in 1997.
- Eddyline Kayaks offer DataDots to new kayak owners to protect their kayak from theft

"identified" company assets of 88% over one year.
