Today SelectaDNA joined the Hertfordshire Police & Crime Commissioner and Herts Police at Hemel Hempstead Selco as part of Project Trace: Hands Off Our Tools!

It was brilliant to meet so many hardworking tradespeople getting their tools marked!

Tool theft isn't just a crime, it's a direct attack on people's livelihoods. If stolen tools are ever recovered, with SelectaDNA police can trace them straight back to their owner and make it very difficult for thieves to sell tools on.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thank you to our associate member, SelectaDNA!

SelectaDNA has 30 years of experience in developing forensic marking solutions, making it possible for police to identify property and link criminals to crime scenes. It is one of the most credible and effective crime reduction tools available to rural and farming communities.

This partnership reflects the growing importance of forensic solutions in the fight against rural crime. Evidence-based, police-backed, and battle-tested across 37 countries, they bring exactly the kind of practical and proven expertise our network stands for.

Together, we look forward to ensuring that rural crime leaves a trace, and that trace leads straight back to those responsible.
