About TagShield

Our Vision

Founded by Australian security expert Luke Percy-Dove, TagShield is designed to be retro-fitted to noise barriers, bridges, tunnels, and other infrastructure. Our vision is to achieve:

• Better allocation of limited resources via alternative solutions that reduce cleaning costs, transport disruption and human risk.
• Improved sense of safety and amenity in public areas, including improved social cohesion and reduction in crime.
• Environmental sustainability requirements at the forefront of design, in accordance with Victoria’s Recycled First Policy.

Global Impact

Patented in 158 countries, TagShield panels are a game-changer in graffiti management. They offer a sustainable solution that not only deters vandalism but also repurposes plastic waste into valuable products. With a projected lifespan of 30 years, these panels are fully recyclable at the end of their life cycle.

Our Commitment

We believe in transforming the way graffiti is managed globally. Traditional graffiti removal is an expensive, never-ending cycle that costs taxpayers millions of dollars annually. Our approach shifts the focus from managing the problem to actively discouraging it. By hiding graffiti within the patterns of the panels, we make it a pointless exercise for vandals.

Future Plans

To date, we have partnered with the Victorian Government for place TagShield cladding in selected sites that are impacted by graffiti. Our the next 12 months, we plan to roll out this initiative across all Australian states. With over two years of laboratory testing and dozens of prototypes, our market-ready panels are set to make a significant impact.

Cost-Effective Solution

Graffiti removal can cost up to $600 per square metre annually. TagShield cladding, which pay for themselves after just four to eight rounds of graffiti removal, offer significant cost savings. This innovative solution reduces the financial burden on taxpayers and infrastructure owners.
