About ATG Sitec
ATG Sitec GmbH, based in Stahnsdorf near Berlin, specializes in forensic marking solutions for property protection. The portfolio includes synthetic DNA with an individual DNA code and coded plastic discs (microdots), UV-fluorescent marking lacquers as well as microdust markings that withstand temperatures up to 1000 degrees. The cured marking substances are barely visible to the naked eye, fluoresce under UV light and, via the code, enable the attribution of marked objects to their rightful owner, provided the owner is registered in a database. Customers include, among others, Deutsche Telekom, whose copper cables are protected against theft with a color-coded UV marking lacquer, as well as the railway, postal services, police, security authorities and the antiques trade. In addition to the marking solutions, the company offers products and consulting in the fields of ballistics, forensics, criminalistics and police supplies. In 2015, the company was acquired 100 percent by Protektus AG.
