Suprema, known for its AI-driven security solutions, has announced that its BioStation 3 device is on track to achieve a new annual global sales record by the end of the current year.
This would represent the highest annual sales figure for Suprema’s biometric technology, indicative of the rising international demand for facial authentication systems.
Global security market growth
The surge in BioStation 3 sales reflects consistent growth across several major regions rather than a one-time increase in any particular market. Notably, there has been a more than 30 percent year-on-year increase in sales in key areas, including the United Kingdom, the Americas, Japan, and the Middle East.
Diverse deployments, numbering from 600 to over 1,000 units, have further cemented its presence in the global security sector at high-security sites, including public institutions, financial organisations, and expansive residential complexes.
Core features driving BioStation 3’s success
BioStation 3's robust data protection capabilities bolster its worldwide reputation
Three principal features underpin BioStation 3’s global competitiveness. Firstly, its AI-powered facial authentication offers remarkable accuracy and reliable performance, providing secure and seamless access in various environments. Secondly, the user experience is tailored to meet real-world conditions, enhancing security and convenience under diverse conditions. Finally, BioStation 3's robust data protection capabilities bolster its worldwide reputation.
The device complies with GDPR, one of the strictest data protection regulations globally, and has successfully passed the ISO/IEC 30107-3 Presentation Attack Detection (PAD) test. It employs advanced encryption techniques and the innovative Template on Mobile (ToM) authentication method, enabling users to manage their personal data directly.
Trust and adoption in key markets
Backed by these data protection and privacy measures, BioStation 3 has gained substantial trust in markets like the United States and the United Kingdom—regions traditionally cautious about adopting facial authentication due to stringent regulations.
The device is now being deployed in significant projects within these markets, with the expectation of broader acceptance across various industries next year.
Recognition at the 2025 Readers’ Choice Awards
BioStation 3’s impact is evident not only in sales but also in industry accolades
BioStation 3’s impact is evident not only in sales but also in industry accolades. It received the Best Product award in the Biometrics category at the 2025 Readers’ Choice Awards, organised by Security Buyer magazine.
This recognition, determined by security industry professionals, highlights the product’s innovation and market potential.
Suprema’s commitment to innovation
Commenting on this milestone, Hanchul Kim, CEO of Suprema Inc., remarked, “The record-breaking sales performance and global award recognition of BioStation 3 demonstrate how AI-powered facial authentication technology is rapidly establishing its presence in the global market. It is particularly meaningful that major international clients with stringent security requirements have recognised the accuracy and reliability of BioStation 3 and adopted it in real-world projects.”
He further emphasised Suprema's commitment to addressing emerging challenges in the security sector while setting global standards through ongoing innovation.

Suprema, a pioneer of AI-powered security solutions, announced that BioStation 3 is expected to set a new annual global sales record by the end of this year.
This represents the highest annual sales record for Suprema’s biometric devices and highlights the accelerating global demand for facial authentication solutions.
Global security market
Importantly, this growth reflects balanced momentum across major regions rather than a temporary spike in a single market. BioStation 3 has achieved more than 30 percent year-over-year sales growth in key markets, including the United Kingdom, the Americas, Japan, and the Middle East.
In addition, deployments ranging from 600 to over 1,000 units at high-security sites such as public institutions, financial organisations, and large-scale residential complexes have further strengthened its position in the global security market.
BioStation 3’s three key factors
Three key factors underpin BioStation 3’s recognised competitiveness worldwide. First, its AI-powered facial authentication delivers high accuracy and stable performance, enabling administrators and end users to experience secure, seamless access authentication in real-world environments. Second, its user experience is optimised for actual operating conditions, enhancing both convenience and security even under diverse environments and complex security requirements.
Finally, these strengths are supported by BioStation 3’s robust data protection capabilities. BioStation 3 complies with GDPR, one of the world’s most stringent data protection regulations, and has successfully passed iBeta’s ISO/IEC 30107-3 Presentation Attack Detection (PAD) test for facial spoofing. It also incorporates advanced data protection and encryption technologies, along with Suprema’s innovative Template on Mobile (ToM) authentication method, which allows users to directly manage their own personal data.
Building on these strong data protection and privacy capabilities, BioStation 3 has earned a high level of trust in markets such as the United States and the United Kingdom, where adoption of facial authentication has traditionally been more conservative and regulatory requirements are stringent, and it is now being actively deployed in major projects. As a result, broader adoption across a wider range of industry sectors is expected next year.
Biometrics category at the 2025 Readers’ Choice Awards
BioStation 3’s value has been demonstrated not only through its sales performance but also through recognition from industry experts. It received the Best Product award in the Biometrics category at the 2025 Readers’ Choice Awards, hosted by the global security publication Security Buyer magazine.
This prestigious award is organised by Security Buyer, a leading media outlet covering global security industry trends and emerging technologies, and is presented to products whose innovation and market potential have been validated through voting by security professionals.
Emerging challenges in the security industry
“The record-breaking sales performance and global award recognition of BioStation 3 demonstrate how AI-powered facial authentication technology is rapidly establishing its presence in the global market. It is particularly meaningful that major international clients with stringent security requirements have recognised the accuracy and reliability of BioStation 3 and adopted it in real-world projects,” said Hanchul Kim, CEO of Suprema Inc.
“Suprema will continue to address emerging challenges in the security industry and lead global standards through continuous innovation that enhances both security and convenience.”
