This is the fourth year that A&S conducts the survey of Top 10 Chinese Brands. Ever since the
digitalization brought revolution to the whole industry of security, in China, the influence has
remained even stronger for the recent years. This year, A&S particularly separates the digital
surveillance products from the CCTV ones and selects top 10 brands in digital surveillance.
The final result reflects the highly-developing digital surveillance industry in China. 		 
     
  "2007 Chinese Security Brands" reveals Chinese strong capability in digital surveillance,
becoming the most important theme of this year. The industry of digital surveillance has
become a strong force in China from our years' observation toward Chinese industry.
Correspondingly, when we compared this result with the winners of top 10 security brands in
China, we found that these seven Chinese brands in digital surveillance are also awarded the
top 10 brands in China this year--Hikvision, Dahua, Dali, Chenova, Tiandy, Hanbang and
Santachi, beating many internationally-known brands. They are all strong in digital
surveillance equipment, especially DVRs. 		 
     
   
  From the result, it can be predicted that within years of efforts coming from the enterprises and
the government, Chinese DVR industry is ready to take up more markets of middle to high-end
markets in China. Winners for digital surveillance mostly own its particular R&D capability and
high-leveled requirements in manufacturing process.		  
     
   
 

The booming development also applies to the Chinese intercom industry. Besides the DVR
industry, intercom manufacturers have formed a new force in Chinese market. Six Chinese
brands of intercoms are also awarded as the top 10 brands in China. Anjubao, Lonbon, Leelen,
Aurine, Genway and WRT remain their leading positions in China market in the two consecutive
years. Their success in China these years has gradually leads them to move their focus to the
overseas markets. IP-based intercoms and home-network systems are the products that they
actively develop recently.

  
     
  For intercom companies, Chinese market provides them a fantastic environment to grow and
develop. The demand to make thousands of buildings link together and control in one central
station will move Chinese manufacturers to accelerate their paces toward pure IP technologies
and products. Meanwhile, the booming real estate in China also pushes many manufacturers to
develop their own intelligent home systems. 		 
     
   
  Among 2007 top 10 winners for CCTV, analog product sections, HTS, Lilin, Minking, Relong,
Yaan, ZLD provide all different specifications of CCTV cameras, ranging from box cameras,
domes, speed domes and some latest network cameras. While, some companies such as AB
and Pearmain are strong in matrices and domes. Stonesonic and Skyworth are top suppliers
for CCTV monitors and LCD multiple screen combination panel wall.		  
     
   
  Five Chinese brands of access control are also awarded the top brands in China. The industry
of access control stays stronger compared to the last few years. Due to the rise of construction
of tall commercial buildings, the big parking lots and shopping malls and intelligent
communities, Chinese manufacturers become skillful in producing multiple solutions for
different industries and applications. Some winners who are active in tapping into the overseas
markets are Coson, ZKsofware and Reformer. The players are moving to produce more products
which can satisfy the needs for these applications.		  
     
 

In total, there are only about sixteen new players in the security industry, which explains the
stable development in some Chinese enterprises. These Chinese manufactures have met strict
requirements in manufacture, production, quality control, services and sales in China. Due to
the disorderly Chinese market and heavy pressure coming from the price competition, we found
an increasing number of these Chinese manufacturers see the overseas markets. Although
many of them are not yet known to the world, the near future will be the crucial time for them
to explore the rest of the world.
