Forensic Gelatin Lifters

BVDA America GELLIFTERS are white gelatin lifters supplied in a pack of 12 for crime scene investigators and forensic laboratories. They are designed to lift and preserve fingerprints, shoeprints and micro traces such as hairs, glass fragments and paint from a variety of surfaces.

Low-Tack Flexible Adhesion

The low-tack gel surface conforms to irregular or mechanically weak substrates such as paper without trapping air bubbles. Strong light absorption allows even faint impressions to be captured when photographed with over-exposure, while the material adds no power draw or noise to the workflow.

Pack of 12 White Units

Each lifter measures 2x4 inches and is coloured white for high contrast during documentation. The pack of 12 provides multiple lifts per scene, and the durable gel construction resists tearing during handling and evidence packaging.

Questions about this item

How do I apply the 2x4" white GELLIFTERS without trapping air bubbles on irregular surfaces?

Press the low-tack gelatin sheet gently onto the target area using a smooth rolling motion from one edge to the opposite edge; the inherent flexibility conforms to paper and other mechanically weak substrates while the low adhesive strength prevents bubble formation during contact.

What replacement schedule should I plan for the 12-pack of GELLIFTERS during extended casework?

Each sheet is single-use; once a lift is made the gelatin surface is saturated and cannot be cleaned or reused, so budget one sheet per distinct impression or trace collection and reorder when the 12-unit supply is exhausted.

At what point does the white gelatin's light absorption limit photographic capture of faint impressions?

The white formulation absorbs light strongly to reveal faint traces under deliberate over-exposure, but once the print density falls below the gelatin's contrast threshold — typically with extremely light powder deposits or heavily degraded residues — even over-exposed images will not recover usable detail.
