(photo from smartwater.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Smart Water is a UK company and was invented by former West Midlands Police officer Phil Cleary and his Chartered Chemist brother, Mike Cleary. It works through the use of highly specialized chemistry to provide a powerful and longstanding deterrent against criminals. Once Smart Water comes into contact with clothes or skin, a unique (invisible) chemical code within the water will rub off onto them which will link the thief to a specific address. If the suspect is arrested, Smart Water can prove their criminal activity. The company works through a subscription service, whereby you purchase a bottle of Smart Water which you then register to your address. Each bottle has a unique chemical code so that no two bottles are the same. You can then choose whatever you want to mark with the Smart Water, which is completely\u00a0invisible, and know that in the event of a burglary, and if your belongings eventually fall into the hands of the police, Smart Water will link your items not only to your address, but to the thief as well.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_111\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-111\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lockrite.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/smart-water.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-111 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lockrite.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/smart-water-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"smart water\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lockrite.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/smart-water-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lockrite.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/smart-water.jpg 330w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-111\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Under UV light Smart Water is clearly visible.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The company boast a 100% conviction rate in court, due to its ability to withstand all weather indefinitely, as well as its ability to stay on skin for many weeks. For businesses they even offer a \u2018Forensic Spray System\u2019 which, upon intrusion, will spray the burglar with Smart Water, marking their skin and clothing. If a suspected thief is checked under a UV light they will appear to be covered in UV freckles, giving conclusive evidence that they have been involved in a specific crime. Smart Water possess a very impressive track record and demonstrate how new technologies are providing increasingly reliable anti-theft devices. As use and reputation of this water spreads, the company now claim that even displaying a Smart Water sticker on your property can deter burglars. Only time will tell how the criminal world will combat Smart Water, but for now\u00a0this\u00a0exciting development\u00a0maintains that 100% conviction rate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UV technology has, for many years, been a useful and legitimate technique for crime solving.
