Detection Systems

Secure your storefront with trusted anti-shoplifting technology

Combat retail shrink and protect your merchandise at the storefront with Sensormatic detection systems designed to suit any retail environment.

Proven anti-shoplifting technology at the storefront is crucial to a successful loss prevention programme. Sensormatic detection systems help to prevent theft and organised retail crime (ORC) through reliable detection of loss events at the exit, so retailers can be confident their merchandise – and profitability – are protected.

Flexibility and Performance to Fulfil Every Shrink Control Need

Sensormatic detection systems feature reliable anti-shoplifting technology in a wide array of options to offer the flexibility and performance you need. Our systems have the highest detection rates, cover wide exits, produce fewer nuisance alarms and support ORC-fighting tools such as metal foil and jammer detection. And because every retail deployment is different, we develop our systems in a variety of technology formats, including Acousto-Magnetic (AM), Radio Frequency (RF) and AM/RFID (Radio Frequency Identification). We even provide RFID as Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) systems that create a migration path for inventory intelligence.

Fight Retail Shrink With Detection System Data

Detection systems provide the most value when devices are network connected in an EAS system, so data can be captured and leveraged in your fight against shrink. This data can be integrated into our Shrink Management as a Service (SMaaS) analytics platform, enabling retailers to better understand and manage the causes of shrink.

Network connected systems not only help to prevent theft, but the data – and insights it offers – can be used to improve operational efficiency and enhance the shopper experience. This powerful information can expose theft events and trends, provide insights into traffic pattern activity and capture specific item-level details so the what, when and where of loss events is known.
