Epson named world’s number one projector manufacturer for 15 consecutive years

Tweet

Epson has been named as the world’s number one projector manufacturer for 15 consecutive years by Futuresource Consulting1. The milestone demonstrates the company’s market leadership and success in the visual imaging industry.

The latest findings from Futuresource indicate that Epson has the largest market share for 500-lumen and above, for projectors worldwide, at 32.1% for 2015, an increase from 29.4% in 2014. For the home projectors segment, Epson has also achieved largest market share for 500-lumen and above, for home projectors worldwide for 2015, which stands at 35.1% for 2015.

Epson’s worldwide market share for projectors have increased steadily over the last 15 years, to maintain its market leadership over the years. Within Southeast Asia, Epson continues to maintain market leadership, with market share increasing to 28% in 2015, up from 24% in 2014.

Epson has a broad range of projectors that caters to different sectors, from enterprise projectors for classroom and small and medium meeting rooms, to interactive projectors for education and enterprise sectors, as well as high brightness projectors for large venue installations, rentals and staging venues.

At the heart of Epson’s projectors is 3LCD technology, which enables Epson projectors to deliver the most vibrant and true-to-life images with up to 3 times higher colour brightness compared to 1-chip DLP projectors in the market. In contrast to 3-chip 3LCD projectors, 1-chip DLP projectors use a rotating color wheel that spins at a rapid speed, only displaying colors sequentially, which can result in color break-up or the “rainbow effect”.

“We are continuously investing in innovative products and technologies to strengthen our position as market leader, and to create new value for our customers worldwide. We are proud to achieve this position, and as a company, will continue to drive innovations to create new visual experiences for our customers,” said Eduardo Bonoan, Senior General Manager and Head of Marketing, Epson Philippines.

1 Data from Futuresource Quarterly Market Insight Reports. Sell-in volumes, representing at least 95% of the worldwide market, are collected from manufacturers each quarter. Data is cross-checked with inputs from distribution channels and component suppliers. This data collection methodology enables Futuresource to accurately size the Projectors Market and provide detailed brand, specification and application shares in over 66 countries worldwide.

As another school year starts, so does the beginning of the rainy season, which makes kids more vulnerable to common illnesses like colds and flu. According to a study by the World Health Organization (WHO), Filipino students in elementary and high school miss an average of one month per year because of sickness. To curb these cases, the health department encourages the maintenance of proper hygiene at home and in schools

Sanitary Care Products Asia (SCPA) introduces the handy and affordable Sanicare Hygiene Kit to help mothers ensure that their children are clean and safe from germs and viruses that could affect their health. The Hygiene Kit contains a roll of two-ply Upsize Sanicare Bathroom Tissue, a pack of Cleansing Wipes with 15 paraben-free sheets, one pack of Toilet Seat Cover and one pack of Sanicare Hankies. With 20 years of proven quality, SCPA gives mothers an advantage in maintaining holistic hygiene for the family anytime, anywhere. 

SCPA products are designed for a fuss-free experience. The classic two-ply Upsize Sanicare Bathroom Tissue, with its new embossed designs, absorbs liquids faster while retaining its durability. The cleansing wipes, on the other hand, has a sturdy, cloth-like texture that is perfect for thorough clean ups. Free from alcohol, chlorine and paraben, the cleansing wipes are gentle to children’s sensitive skin.

Securing a kit saves money and time, making it easier for mothers to equip their children with various personal care products without having to compile different items in one bag. As a back-to-school must-have, the Sanicare Hygiene Kit reminds students about the importance of observing proper hygiene in school.

It had to be easy-to-use with great interface options as well as payment gateways that can be adapted to the Philippine setting. Among all our options, we found Shopify to be the best choice.
