Founded in 1996, AVTECH is one of the world's established CCTV manufacturers and among the largest listed companies in Taiwan's surveillance industry, built on steady revenue growth and a practical approach to running the business.
In 2019 AVTECH spun off its security & surveillance division as AVTECH Security, a subsidiary in which it holds a majority stake. That move opened a new phase: expanding the group around its storage and imaging technology through targeted investment.
AVTECH is a company willing to take on challenges, adopt new technology and bring new ideas to its industry. We set out to make surveillance products that stand apart, and to deliver professional, secure AI-enabled applications.
AVTECH has long invested in new technology to deliver the most competitive products. Going forward we will keep combining our experience in semiconductor distribution with our leadership in surveillance, developing new digital and networked products so customers get the best product, price and service.
