As new and exciting technologies emerge in today’s AV, IT and Digital signage markets, there is one brand that has stood the test over time in the UK for over 18 years – iiyama.  We are the longest serving original brand in the UK market today.

With a name and logo that has barely changed over time, the same cannot be said for its technological advancements that have shaped the company into what it is today.  iiyama in the UK has steadily built a reputation for exceptional price versus quality across all applications backed by award winning customer service support and flexible warranty options.

iiyama UK Sales Manager Richard James says, “iiyama are undoubtedly the most established brand in the monitor market today and we’re especially proud of the fact that we have never been known as anything else.  One of our products has also just been awarded an A List product rating by a leading publication, which highlights the fact that iiyama are also the most awarded monitor company in the UK.”

Based in Japan, iiyama started in 1973 but didn’t venture into the European market until 1992.  From the VisionMaster CRT displays that won worldwide accolades, to LCD technology first launched in 1997, followed by Hard Glass, Touchscreen, Multi-touch, to the latest LED monitors launched this year.  Environmental issues have been recognised and power saving monitors delivered into the market across their entire range.
Over the last two years figures show that iiyama has tripled its UK market share, and in the last 10 years has made a steady increase overall – even with the introduction of other hardware such as laptops and notebooks.  

The success of the brand lies firmly in teamwork.  Between the European office that are key to supporting the UK team, the established channel of distributor and reseller partners for sales, and new business opportunities within the corporate and retail to take the brand further.  For over 18 years the iiyama brand does not launch new products into the market unless there is a real benefit to the user, which helps them stay competitive without compromising on quality or features.
