We work with our Specialist Partner, Selectamark, who provide forensic asset marking solutions designed to protect vehicles, plant machinery and high-value mobile equipment. These solutions are available to Aviva customers at preferential rates.
Vehicle and plant machinery theft continues to be an issue across the UK, including within construction, utilities, logistics and agricultural sectors. High-value machinery, plant equipment, vehicle components and GPS systems are frequently targeted by organised criminal networks.
Effective deterrence plays a vital role in reducing theft. By marking vehicles, plant machinery and associated equipment with forensic identification solutions, assets become significantly harder to sell on. This greatly reduces their appeal to criminals while increasing the likelihood of recovery if stolen.
Selectamark is a provider of police-preferred security marking and asset identification solutions. Its products are designed not only to deter theft but also to support the recovery of stolen vehicles and equipment through unique forensic coding and secure database registration.
As a member of the British Security Industry Association (BSIA), Selectamark demonstrates a strong commitment to industry standards and best practice. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 27001 certifications, reflecting robust quality management, environmental responsibility and information security management systems.
SelectaDNA Vehicle and Plant Protection
SelectaDNA provides advanced forensic marking technology to help protect vehicles, plant machinery and mobile assets from theft. Each kit contains a unique combination of forensic DNA, UV tracer and microscopic identification dots (microdots) that permanently link equipment to its registered owner.
Visible warning labels act as a strong deterrent, while the forensic solution enables police to identify and trace stolen vehicles, machinery and components. As DNA evidence is widely recognised as a powerful investigative tool, assets marked with SelectaDNA can be viewed as high-risk targets and far less attractive to thieves.

Transcript for video Secure Asset Register
Selectamark Security Systems plc provide security marking and asset identification solutions approved by the police and insurance providers to individuals and organisations, both in the UK and around the world. Our forensic marking solution SelectaDNA makes protected sites a no-go area for thieves.
Our diverse product range can be used by all types of organisations and industries. From offices to construction companies, hospitals to telecoms providers, schools to retailers, SelectaDNA can be used to mark and protect all types of assets and infrastructure. These can include laptops and other electronic equipment, vehicles, tools, testing equipment and batteries, as well as equipment used in the construction and agricultural industries.
Police in the UK believe in it so strongly that they even use it to protect their own equipment. SelectaDNA can help protect your organisation from theft, robbery and break-ins.
Each SelectaDNA kit comes with its own completely unique synthetic DNA-coded solution and a variety of warning stickers and signage. Once marked, valuables are registered on our secure asset register so that if an item is found by the police it can easily be traced back to your organisation. By displaying the warning signage, thieves are more likely to stay away due to the fear of being linked to any crime they commit.
Our SelectaDNA solution comes in a bottled liquid for marking all types of movable assets or a spray version for fixed infrastructure, such as copper cabling, solar panels and lead roofs. The solution appears clear on all assets and can be found by police using UV detection equipment. As well as containing a unique DNA code, our solution also contains thousands of microscopic dots with a custom ID on. Once the marking is identified, a microdot can be read by a microscope and checked against the secure asset register to determine who the registered owner is. If no microdots can be located, a sample of the solution can be collected by the police and sent to our state of the art laboratory for analysis and identification by expert scientists.
As a specialist partner of Aviva, we’re delighted to offer these solutions to its clients at a discounted rate. To find out more, simply visit our website, email or call, and speak to one of our customer support team.
