-
Large and growing pipeline in the US.
-
Theft of copper in North America is a cost to public safety, corporate productivity and profitability.
-
Direct losses are substantial - insurance claims to replace stolen air conditioning units alone exceeded US$1 billion in 2010 - and productivity losses resulting from copper theft are estimated to exceed US$1 billion per annum.
-
Now 100% owned.

6.2 National Registers
==> picture [704 x 257] intentionally omitted <==
-
Built on a shared platform for simple, global law enforcement access
-
Insurance agencies actively support the Registers because: policy holders who participate in theft prevention programs are usually a better risk; a theft alert enhances the likelihood of recovering the asset, the risk of fraudulent claims is diminished, investigators are motivated.

6.3 China Anti Counterfeit Initiative
-
Capitalise on new Chinese Govt regulations aimed at stamping out counterfeit consumer products manufacturing.
-
Work with our existing clients in alcohol, tobacco, pharmaceutical, automotive and spectacle frame industries and their industry associations to increase recognition of the fail-safe nature of our DataTraceDNA technology.
-
Proven advantages are copy-proofing, stopping divergence – including out of territory trading by distributors, false warranty claims, brand reputational damage caused by sub-standard substitutes.

6.6 Bulk Materials
- DataTrace has identified as a growth area the application of its technology in industrial bulk materials. Selected industry segments are
==> picture [200 x 186] intentionally omitted <==
-
Construction materials (paints, coatings, concrete)
-
Agricultural products (seeds, fertiliser)
-
Benefits include anti-counterfeit protection, eliminating false warranty claims and improving quality control.
-
These high-volume segments are not comprehensively serviced by covert authentication solutions and therefore offer a promising opportunity for growth and differentiation.
==> picture [204 x 121] intentionally omitted <==
- DataTrace is developing an innovative reader which will make the technology commercially feasible to be used in bulk materials.
