Source Tagging

Sensormatic's Source Tagging program ensures your merchandise is protected at the source and arrives floor-ready to help sell more and lose less, while enabling staff to better serve shoppers.

Backed by over 50 years of innovation and quality, Sensormatic developed a comprehensive portfolio of source tagging solutions that help protect some of the hardest to tag product categories including electronics, hard goods, apparel, cosmetics, and health and beauty. With source tagging, items arrive to the store already protected with Sensormatic anti-theft sensors to help get them on the sales floor faster, enable secure open merchandising and increase throughput at the point-of-sale — all leading to a better customer experience. Our source tagging solutions span AM and RF technologies and can integrate seamlessly into existing supplier and retailer operations.

With 55 years of source tagging experience, we are your single source for turn-key merchandise protection solutions.

Global Scale

Genuine Sensormatic source tagging programs have effectively protected billions of items over the past decade.

Range of Options

From perfumes to wines and spirits to high-end luxury apparel, Sensormatic source tagging solutions are versatile enough to protect a remarkably wide range of retail products. Our solutions are designed for operational efficiency and are particularly effective in discreetly protecting hard-to-tag products like nails/screws, saws, cosmetics and other hard goods, all while maintaining the product and package design.

Working with Manufacturers

Source tagging increases sales opportunities both for manufacturers and retailers, delivering a high ROI by allowing for greater product revenue and more efficient and accurate inventory reordering. For manufacturers, it improves brand visibility and recognition and minimizes impact on product packaging.
