The identity layer,held close to home.

Asterion Technologies is the Importer and Master Distributor of Aratek biometric devices for South Africa and Africa — putting certified capture hardware, standards expertise and lifecycle support within local reach.

Single accountable source

As master importer we hold Aratek stock in-country with warranty and firmware intact — minimising import delays and grey-market risk from your programme.

Standards, not guesswork

FBI Appendix F, ISO/IEC 19794, ICAO 9303 and MOSIP alignment run through everything we supply, so captures are accepted where it counts.

Lifecycle ownership

From quote to warranty expiry, every serial is tracked through our own stock and RMA platform — returns handled, never lost.

The partnership

Aratek hardware, Asterion reach.

Aratek Biometrics builds one of the most complete identity capture ranges in the world — from FAP 10 verification scanners to FAP 60 slap devices, iris optics, facial terminals and self-service kiosks. Asterion brings that range to the African market as the master importer.

That means local stock, local support, local warranty handling, and a team that knows how these devices behave in real deployments — not a shipping label on an overseas order.
