RELIABILITY. NOTHING BUT THE BEST.

This approach to product quality is unequivocally more important when the people that depend on your systems are Military and Law-Enforcement professionals. They emphasize quality and reliability – their equipment needs to support them for any operation, in any setting, because there is no room for error. Our devices are manufactured to reflect that philosophy: We offer an unmatched 7 year limited warranty, industry leading specifications with no limitations for thermal cores and intensifier tubes, made in Canada to ensure our high assembly and testing standards, all ITAR-free.

We’ve always focused all our attention to completely covering our niche within this industry, which is why GSCI is the only name you need to know when it comes to night vision and thermal imaging systems. Our clients get access to the widest range of high-end technical components and specification currently available.

International governments are increasingly reliant on thermal imaging technology as the backbone to national defense and security; this is where GSCI differentiates itself from the competition with unparalleled quality and technical capability. Talk to one of our knowledgeable staff members to get full details on a variety of customization options to perfectly match your specific requirements – whether it’s for government procurement projects, business opportunities, or simply personal use.

PHILOSOPHY & CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

The foundation of our success is the satisfaction of our clients In order to provide the highest standard of electro-optical equipment, we have always fully committed ourselves to understanding and incorporating the feedback of our professional customers. The crowd-sourced information is then implemented in our “30-40-30” approach to manufacturing: our experienced team of technicians dedicate 30% of a product’s lead time to meticulously check the quality of all components and parts, 40% to fully build the product, and the final 30% to rigorously test the product and ensure it meets our high quality control standards before it is sent out worldwide. This is accomplished with the utmost honesty and integrity following GSCI’s strict internal quality criteria and using ISO 9001:2015 standards, while committing to continuous process improvement.
