Benro’s mission statement is simple: their products are designed and built to meet or exceed the needs and demands of professional photographers worldwide.
Originally founded in 1996 as a cooperative tripod manufacturer, Benro developed and began marketing its own brand name – Benro Professional Tripods and Heads – in 2002. By continuously investing in advanced tooling and precision machining in concert with a highly trained design/engineering team, Benro has spared little effort in developing and refining their product line. As a result of their commitment to quality and performance, Benro has become one of the best known, and best-selling brands in China. In 2005, registered under a new corporate name, Benro Precision Photography Industry Co. LTD (Hong Kong) began construction of larger production facilities, and currently produces professional tripods and heads from a 30000m2 factory and 35000m2 production facility.
As a result of their efforts in producing the finest, pro-quality photographic tripods and heads, Benro was awarded the 2005 ‘Photographer’s Companion Award’ for producing what is now widely acknowledged to be one of today’s most successful imaging product lines.
Benro continues its sales success worldwide and has rapidly become the number one tripod choice for professional photographers throughout the Far East and beyond.
They strive to develop lighter and stronger award winning products to meet the needs of the most demanding professional photographers in the world. In 2005, in cooperation with China’s Environmental Protection Agency, Benro once again demonstrated their innovative production abilities by introducing their first basalt carbon tripod.
Their product line consists of the following solutions:
- Tripods
- Bags
- Jibs
- Accessories
- Heads
- Monopods
- Sliders
- Filters
In one sentence, why do I need Benro?
Because their equipment range offers the quality and performance of higher-priced competitive brands at a better price.
