Axis was founded in Lund, Sweden, in 1984 and launched the world's first network camera in 1996, starting the move from analogue CCTV to IP video. It has been part of Canon since 2015 while continuing to operate independently.
Axis position themselves as a leader in network video built on open standards. Their range covers network cameras, thermal cameras, audio, intercoms and access control, designed to work with third-party video management systems, with a strong focus on device cybersecurity and long product lifecycles.
Axis suits owners of estates where cameras need to last and work with whichever platform is chosen now or in future.
