What is a Thatcham approved tracker?
Asset tracking systems come in different variations. Those that are Thatcham (S7) approved meet the stringent standards set by Thatcham Research, a leading authority in vehicle security testing.
A Thatcham approved tracker, which uses advanced GPS technology to monitor and report asset locations in real-time, supplies superior protection against theft. Thatcham approval signals the highest level of reliability and security, which makes these devices highly recommended by insurance companies.
By investing in a Thatcham tracker, you can instantly enhance the security of your business vehicles.

S7 Thatcham explained
You may wonder what S7 stands for when seen alongside Thatcham. In summary, S7 is a classification for tracking devices which meet specific security standards set by Thatcham. Those defined as S7 trackers supply essential tracking and recovery features for vehicles, offering reliable theft protection.
To be classed in the S7 category, devices – such as those offered by Radius – must meet rigorous testing criteria to ensure their effectiveness and reliability. This includes the addition of features such as real-time location tracking, tamper alerts, and integration with law enforcement for vehicle recovery.
