ASSET PROTECTION OF VALUABLE ITEMS
Asset tagging or asset protection of valuable items in places such as libraries, museums and larger businesses is recognised as highly effective in preventing theft. Through tagging valuable items and monitoring/tracking their movement, organisations are provided with a comprehensive security solution.
Our Associate Company installs two types of Asset Protection:
- Active RFID systems, which are used for artwork, sculptures and other valuable items.
- Passive RFID systems which are used for library books and DVD/CDs
Product Information
Horus Arts has been designed for the protection of high value artwork through an active RFID system. Any motion or removal will wirelessly alert that an unauthorised move is in process.
The system has credit card sized micro transmitters that are discreetly attached to each valuable item. These constantly detect motion and report back to the central processing unit. The most sensitive setting will detect a slight knock or vibration, while other controlled setting can be set to activate only when the device is moved from its current position.
The systems have the ability to alarm and correct temperature and humidity for environmental monitoring.
RFID Library Product systems
Our Associate Company works with the main manufacturers of RFID library systems in the UK. Using the latest radio frequency technology our systems offers fantastic upgrade opportunities.
How it works
RFID wireless adhesive tags are stuck into each book. When a book is checked out the security tag is deactivated, allowing it to be removed without an alarm.
Should a book be removed without deactivation, the alarm will sound alerting you to its attempted removal. The labels come in a variety of shape design and formats suitable for virtually all-modern and current library materials.
