“Plant and machinery has an 11% theft rate in Britain. Highly organised gangs who know that tracking devices are fitted generally steal the equipment. The first thing that a thief looks for is an aerial, or a connection from the battery power supply. If they find this they will have a GPS system, for example, disabled within 10 minutes. In this way an asset worth £30-40,000 can disappear in minutes despite a “tracking device” being installed.

mtrack is the ideal security device for this market as it is self-powered; needs no aerial and can be hidden inside the framework of the machine to be protected. Because of this the only way for the thief to find the mtrack is to strip down the piece of plant or machinery, as it could be hidden literally anywhere.

mtrack has a 90% plus recovery rate with plant and machinery. In addition to this mtrack has recovered other equipment stored at the criminal gang’s depots worth over £1 million.

A major construction company has an excess on their insurance policy of £50,000. Due to this most losses of plant and vehicles are a cost straight to the bottom line. Mtrack is now a standard fit item for this company and has resulted in regular recoveries of stolen plant adding straight back to the company’s profits.

mtrack has the following benefits:

• Cars • Motorbikes • Boats • Caravans
• Lorries • Plant machinery • High value loads
• Car Dealerships • Hire Companies
