Forbatt SA – Bringing the best together

March 2017 Surveillance

The speed of technological change has brought us to the realisation that there is no longer a one-size-fits-all solution in just about any industry. Just look at the automotive industry. It is common practice for major players to buy out the competition and then mix and match engines, chassis, suspension systems etc. for an improved or more efficient solution.

A classic example in the world of motor-sport is Formula 1 racing. McLaren will dabble with Honda engines to find the intended solutions don’t quite work as expected, while Red Bull will team up with Renault engines and hit a winning streak until Mercedes Benz has a better solution, and so on.

The surveillance industry is no exception. Some solutions end up not achieving the intended results while others send you on a winning streak.

Forbatt SA has been in the industry for many years, watching the trends and putting plans in place to solve the “solutions dilemma”. Forbatt SA was and still is the sole agent for Sunell Security. In keeping with the above analogy, Forbatt SA very early on recognised a market gap – choice! Choice that allowed manufacturers to put their best forward for the winning solution that gave the end user the best of the best. This led to Forbatt SA’s expansion of its agencies to focus on the best possible solutions and a winning streak for the entire value chain, from distributors to the end users.

The niche market solution – KEDACOM

Forbatt SA’s brand now includes one of the leading global mobile surveillance security and niche surveillance manufacturers KEDACOM. KEDACOM is one of the largest manufacturers in the surveillance sector and its solutions include the very popular body worn camera, the mobile camera, and the impressive mobile NVR. These are just a few of their exceptional products.

The aesthetic conscious solution – Sunell

A well-known brand under the Forbatt SA agency is Sunell. When it comes to aesthetics, no one does it better. Sunell is not just about impressive function, it takes form just as seriously. Sunell is one of the few manufacturers that focuses on enhancing the ambiance of the space it occupies, a welcome change for property developers in upmarket projects.

The robustness solution – TVT

Another brand in the Forbatt SA stable is TVT. TVT is a listed manufacturer of surveillance technology. Its range is exceptional and the highlight is their recorders. From entry-level solutions to the high end of the market, they leave no doubt as to why they are a global leader.

The energy storage solution – Forbatt batteries

If you have heard the name ‘Forbatt’, it’s likely you know Forbatt batteries. Forbatt batteries can be found anywhere, from mining helmets all the way to solar array banks. The brand has been around for many years and demand continues to grow with the surge in alternative energy solutions.

The market access solution – the distribution network

Forbatt SA imports exclusively for its network of distributors.

The list of distributors includes some of the largest and listed companies in the security industry in South Africa. The distributors in the surveillance technology sector include (in alphabetical order): ADI, Communica, Elvey, Eurobyte Technology, Pentagon, Pinnsec, Rull Technologies, TPA and VCam.
