A Unique Fingerprint

Chemamarker MTE® is a proprietary technology, developed in our own laboratories, using a specific tagging characteristic that provides a guarantee of product authenticity.

Chemamarker MTE® prevents the introduction of fake products in the market by giving fuel or any other petroleum-based substance a unique fingerprint, ensuring that its origin and composition cannot be counterfeited. This technology offers definitive evidence of the substance’s origin and composition and has been patented worldwide.

CHEMAMARKER MTE®

Major Advantages

Covert Solution

Chemamarker MTE® is colourless, and so, unlike dyes, its physical properties cannot be copied or mimicked using other compounds.

In-Field Testing

Chemamarker MTE ® is simple to detect by means of an aqueous extraction solution. This makes it possible to use portable kits for field testing without the need for laboratory equipment.

HOW IS IT USED?

FraudPrevention

Adding Chemamarker MTE® to a fuel or other petrochemical product makes it virtually impossible to commit fraud – for example, the adulteration of a taxed fuel with a lower-taxed petroleum product – on a commercial scale.​

HOW IS IT USED?

TheftPrevention

Chemamarker MTE® can identify a batch of bulk liquid, as in the case of fuels owned by government, military or large commercial organisations.

HOW IS IT USED?

Supply ChainProtection

Chemamarker MTE® is like an invisible marker that protects the identity of a product at all steps of the supply chain, from manufacture to end-user.

HOW IS IT USED?

BrandProtection

Chemamarker MTE® offers a unique marker for your products, preventing inferior counterfeit substances being sold as your own within the distribution network – for example on inks.

HOW IS IT USED?

ProductDifferentiation

Once Chemamarker MTE® has been added to a fuel or lubricant, it marks it covertly and makes it different from any competing products.

EASE OF USE

Chemamarker® has excellent solubility in liquid concentrate format for compatible solvents. This allows for it to be integrated into the production process more easily than traditional dyes.

QUICK DETECTION

The presence of Chemamarker MTE® is quickly verified using rapid pass/fail testing equipment based on a water extraction solution. This makes it possible to use portable kits for field testing without the need for laboratory equipment.

VERY STABLE

Chemamarker MTE® is stable in fuels and solvents, far exceeding the anticipated storage life of the tagged liquid. It is compatible with most additives, and it is unaffected by other dyes that may be contained in the fuel or solvent.

PERMANENCE

Chemamarker MTE® is very tough to remove from fuels and solvents and requires specialised industrial processes. Not available commercially, the extracting solution is inaccessible to fraudulent or criminal operations.

DURABILITY

Chemamarker MTE® has a long shelf life. Its efficiency as a marker is long-lasting, even in the toughest conditions.

VERSATILITY

Chemamarker MTE® is not obscured by other natural components in the tagged liquids, which means it can be used for a wide range of petroleum products. It can be utilised together with traditional dyes, without risk of interference during extraction.

SAFETY

Chemamarker MTE® is non-toxic. Its chemical composition is based on the same elements present in the fuels and solvents. For this reason, it has no detrimental effects on the fuel, oil or solvent.

COST EFFECTIVE

Detection of Chemamarker MTE® is simple - even at the very low dosages. This enables significant reductions in costs, and minimises the amount of storage space required.
