OCP group has been a key player in the international phosphate market since it was founded in 1920. It is the world’s largest exporter of phosphate rock and phosphoric acid as well as one of the world’s largest producers of fertilizer. Its production site had already been equipped with an analogue system for several years and now needed upgrading with a more modern and effective system . Thus, OCP group decided to level up their security by adding the Dahua HD IP solution as a complementary solution as well as replacing its old DVRs.

According to the customers’ needs, clear and crystal monitoring images were at the top of the list, and due to the wide production site, it was of importance to deploy effective cameras, both indoors and externally. Moreover, since the manufacturing base was secured by different branded devices, product compatibility became a key issue. Under the professional suggestion of Country Tech, Dahua’s local distributor, OCP group decided to take Dahua speed domes (SD6980-HN & SD6582A-HN), NVRs (NVR3216) and DVRs (DVR0804HF-L) to secure their assets.

Dahua 1.3/2-megapixel network speed domes provide real-time recording in high definition with a maximum of up to a 100-metre IR distance, ensuring a wide visual range at night as well as under other poor-lighting conditions; the domes are protected from ingress to a level of IP67 and to IK10 against harsh conditions. The NVR3216 supports a maximum of 120fps@1080P recording and accommodates two HDDs for data storage.  

“We put quality first when selecting products," said Afaf Rais, Sales Manager of Country Tech. “Partnering with Dahua for several years made us confident about the products and services they provide; meanwhile, it is all based on a reasonable price. During the project, Dahua showed professionalism and offered very good support and services."

“Phosphate is an economic pillar in Morocco, we are proud that our solution and products could be applied to secure it," said William Zhou, Sales Director of Latin America and Africa at Dahua Technology. “Global demand for high definition solutions continues to grow, take Africa as an example, in recent years, we have seen more and more projects asking for IP solutions, and thus we will work more on this and bring more region-oriented products and solutions to the market."
