Gelatine Lifters Clear 13 x 18 cm for Fingerprint and Trace Evidence Recovery

Clear Gelatine Lifters 13 x 18 cm provide forensic investigators with an effective method for recovering fingerprints, dust marks and trace evidence. The transparent gelatin surface allows examiners to view recovered material clearly while retaining the flexibility and low-adhesive properties associated with gel lifting technology.

Crime Scene Investigators, fingerprint specialists and forensic laboratories can use these lifters across a wide range of evidence recovery applications. In addition, the clear surface can support detailed examination and photography where transparency is beneficial.

Clear Gelatine Lifters for Evidence Recovery

The transparent gelatin surface offers an important advantage during forensic examination.

Because the lifter remains clear, investigators can inspect recovered material without the strong background colour of a black or white lifter.

This can prove useful when the examiner wants to assess the lifted mark against a separate contrasting background. As a result, the same recovered evidence can be viewed under different lighting and background conditions.

Clear Gelatine Lifters for Fingerprint Recovery

Clear Gelatine Lifters can support the recovery of powdered fingerprints and other transferable marks.

For example, investigators can lift fingerprint powder from a suitable surface and then place the clear lifter against a contrasting background for examination.

This flexibility can help improve visibility when working with different powder colours.

Furthermore, the transparent format can support photography, documentation and comparison work.

Practical 13 x 18 cm Format

The 13 x 18 cm size provides a useful working area for fingerprint, dust and trace evidence recovery.

Its dimensions allow the examiner to cover a larger area while still maintaining good control during application.

Therefore, the 13 x 18 cm format suits individual fingerprints, groups of marks, dust deposits and other areas of forensic interest.

Flexible Gelatin Surface

The flexible gelatin layer allows the lifter to follow small variations in the surface underneath.

As a result, examiners can use it on many suitable smooth, grained or lightly textured surfaces.

Applications can include:

• Fingerprint powder recovery
• Dust mark lifting
• Trace evidence collection
• Fine particulate recovery
• Small impression recovery
• Crime scene photography
• Forensic comparison work
• Practical forensic training

Investigators should always assess the evidence and substrate before selecting the most appropriate lifting technique.

Clear Gelatine Lifters for Trace Evidence

Trace evidence can consist of very small quantities of transferable material. Therefore, close contact between the lifter and the surface can prove important.

The flexible gelatin layer helps achieve this contact. At the same time, its low-adhesive properties allow investigators to recover fine material from suitable surfaces.

The transparent background then gives examiners greater flexibility when choosing how to view or photograph the recovered evidence.

As a result, Clear Gelatine Lifters can support both evidence recovery and subsequent examination.

Clear Results for Forensic Photography

Forensic photography plays an important role in documenting recovered evidence.

A clear lifter allows investigators to select a background that gives the best contrast for the recovered material.

For example, a dark background can improve the visibility of lighter evidence. Conversely, a light background may help reveal darker powder or particulate material.

This versatility makes clear gelatine lifters useful when several evidence types or powder colours may be encountered.
