Important Notices - Hochiki Asia Pacific

Counterfeit and similar products have been reported in Vietnam. Please take note that the model: SOC-24VN which was branded with our Hochiki brand was sold in various forms in the country.

Although the shape and outlook of these counterfeit detectors look very similar to our original Hochiki Brand product, the quality varies a lot:

 

  • The counterfeit detector is prone to false alarms after installations and during operations.

 

  • The counterfeit detector is not tested/certified in quality; leading to malfunction in a short period of time.

 

The above matter affects very seriously to fire alarm system, human and building safety, and even to our official Hochiki distributors and Hochiki Brand image in Vietnam also Global market.

 

Currently, we have some countermeasures such as:

 

  • Hochiki Asia Pacific is cooperating with Vietnam Fire Police Department and some other Vietnam government agencies to report and seek for their support to fight against counterfeit product supplier

     

  • We recommend Vietnam clients to source our Hochiki products through official trusted distribution channels.
