First Production Run at Our New Facility

Production has started on the first product to be made at our new facility - the UVIR-1

Mechanical and electronic parts are produced at a number of suppliers in SE Asia as well as in the US and shipped to our Hong Kong factory. After passing incoming inspection the parts are cleared for final assembly and testing. 

A new series of products

The UVIR-1 is one of a new range of gaming products Porticos Asia is engineering and producing in our facility for Shuffle Tech. The UVIR-1 uses variable visible, IR and UV light to detect hidden markings on playing cards. Other products in the range include devices for randomised card shuffling and a smart card shoe for baccarat and other card games. The smart card shoe is capable of reading cards at high speed and storing the information for verification after each game.

Small batch production

Our new 4,000 sq. ft. office was designed with a 2,000 sq. ft. facility for the final assembly and testing of products in small batches such as the UVIR-1. We continue to work with our production partners in SE Asia for larger volumes but in instances where the quantities are smaller production can take place in-house. Our production facility has three production lines, a warehouse for parts and finished goods storage and testing and measurement equipment including an environmental chamber and a digital measuring projector.

Our production advantages

Furthermore, with production Hong Kong we are able to take advantage of the superb air and sea freight logistics for rapid delivery to our customers. Other advantages of producing in Hong Kong include tariff free export to China under CEPA and strong IP protection thanks to Hong Kong’s robust legal system.
