Deltason Medical

What Deltason Medical does

Deltason Medical Limited is a privately-held Hong Kong-based medical equipment distributor founded in 1994 and headquartered in Sha Tin. The company markets, distributes, and provides consultation and R&D support for rehabilitation, pharmacy automation, hospital, and research-grade medical equipment to healthcare professionals across Hong Kong, Macau, mainland China, and selected European markets. Its product portfolio spans four verticals: pharmacy automation (Omnicell, JVM automatic tablet dispensing); rehabilitation robotics and therapy (proprietary Hand of Hope EMG-driven robotic hand system co-developed with Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Biometrics E-LINK, Brontes Kinect biofeedback, Rifton adaptive equipment, G-EO Systems, Syrebo soft robotics glove, Dynamic Stair Trainer); hospital equipment; and research and evaluation instrumentation (Biometrics DataLOG/DataLINK, STT CLIMA motion capture, Curvebeam weight-bearing CT, STT Podia foot scanner).

The company's flagship proprietary product, Hand of Hope (希望之手), uses surface EMG sensors to detect stroke patients' residual muscle signals and drive a robotic hand exoskeleton for active hand-function rehabilitation. It carries CE Mark and ISO 13485 certifications and won the Grand Prix at the 2012 International Exhibition of Inventions of Geneva. Revenue mechanics combine one-time hardware sales (Hand of Hope priced at €20,000/unit), multi-year enterprise sales cycles to hospitals and rehabilitation centers, exclusive distribution markups on international OEM brands, professional services (consultation, R&D support, training), and emerging direct-to-patient equipment rental. The company holds exclusive regional distribution rights for Biometrics, G-EO Systems, Sport Vision Trainer, Omnicell, JVM, Rifton, Brontes, STT, Curvebeam, Syrebo, and other international brands across Hong Kong and Macau, while maintaining a Beijing subsidiary (Beijing Deltason Hope Medical Tech.) for mainland China operations. CEO Michael Tsui Kam-fai leads both Deltason Medical and sister company Rehab-Robotics.
