Guangdong Chuantian Technology Co., Ltd. was founded in 1994 and created a classic in the POS market with its innovative DIY-POS sales concept, making a significant contribution to the popularity of POS machines in China's retail industry. Chuantian Technology has achieved the remarkable milestone of DIY-POS with cumulative sales of 100,000 units. In 2003, Chuantian Technology formed the CITAQ international design team with an open concept and invested in new product development. After three years of dedicated research and development, the CITAQ brand series products were launched.
The CITAQ series products, designed to international standards, confidently entered the international market and participated in the German iF International Industrial Design Competition for three consecutive years. In 2005, the CITAQ Opoz 5000 cash register won the iF Design Award; in 2006, the CITAQ Opoz RP5080 thermal printer won the iF Design Gold Award; in 2007, the CITAQ Opoz 8000 cash register again won the iF Design Award; in 2008, the CITAQ PC 8852 host won the iF Design Award for the fourth time. Chuantian Technology also became the first company in mainland China to consecutively win the iF Design Award, known as the "Oscar of Industrial Design," four times, with CITAQ once again writing a legendary chapter in Chuantian's history. As Mr. Miro, the chief designer of Chuantian Technology's French R&D center, said, "Not conforming may be the source of innovation."
The quality standards of CITAQ products align with international norms, having passed the ISO9001 quality management system certification, 3C certification, international FCC, CE, UL, GUV, and the European environmental standard RoHS certification from the China Quality Certification Center. Chuantian Technology is the only strategic partner of Intel in China's POS industry and is also a partner of ELO, CHERRY, Samsung, Philips, and Seiko Instruments. From 2003 to 2006, within just four years, Chuantian Technology obtained 19 patents and achieved multiple technological results in the independent research and development of fanless hosts, industrial control motherboards, and POS peripheral products.
CITAQ products are sold in nearly 50 countries across four continents, with well-known foreign companies such as Esprit, L'Oréal, Häagen-Dazs, MANGO, Saudi Post, and Carrefour being loyal users of CITAQ. The CITAQ brand was born from dreams, embodying the innovative aspirations of Chuantian people since its inception. The extraordinary design concept and international vision of the CITAQ series products serve as a model for innovation and change in China's POS industry, reshaping the image of Chinese POS products in the international market, redefining the standards of Chinese POS products, and leading them into broader markets. Winning the iF Award four times is merely the starting point for CITAQ, yet it represents a milestone in the history of industrial design development in China.
The comprehensive enhancement of product quality and brand connotation by CITAQ brings the world's cutting-edge technology and most advanced concepts to China's retail industry. Chuantian Technology will seek to surpass yesterday in its quest for an elevation in product value.
