PAULSON® GAMING CHIPS

All Paulson® chips are custom made exclusively for each casino to accommodate each casino’s preferences. With a long tradition of quality and experience coupled with an efficient Research and Development department, Paulson chips are able to offer the highest quality and the widest selection of state-of-the-art gaming chips. Paulson chips are successful due to a unique feel and easy handling. Casinos also appreciate the great inlay printing process. The background of the inlay can be white or printed in color. A casino can choose any drawing or picture for its custom background design.

Paulson chips are made of up to 13 different components. They are thermo-compressed and are commonly referred to as “clay chips.” Paulson chips are custom molded with personalized inlays.

In order to create a custom Paulson chip, the following must be selected:

  • Size of the chip.
  • Color combination, the base color and the one, two or three edge spot colors.
  • Type of pattern.
  • Size of the inlays.
  • And the most important point, the security features.

CHIP AND INLAY SIZES (Click to view)
Paulson chips are available in three sizes: 39mm, 43mm and 48mm. The central décor, commonly named the inlay, is available in three diameter sizes:

  • Standard (7/8”)
  • Grand, the most popular (1 1/16”)
  • Giant (1 3/8”)

PAULSON® COLOR CHART (Click to view)

Paulson® chips are available in a wide range of 64 colors. All colors can be used as a base color or as an edge spot color. These printed colors are a close representation only and may vary on the finished chip.

PAULSON® CHIP EDGE SPOT CHART (Click to view)

There are 33 different edge spot patterns from which to choose. The number of edge spots can vary from 2 to 16. The edge spot comes in four different sizes and each edge spot can be a different color.

HOT STAMPED CHIPS (Click to view)
Paulson® offers solid color chips that are used for the lowest denomination of the chip bank. These single color chips are hot stamped thanks to a customized die. The text is usually printed in gold, but other colors may be chosen if necessary.

ROULETTE CHIPS (Click to view)
Roulette chips are available in a 39mm size with an inlay. Each chip has a customized mold with the word “Roulette” molded twice on the rim and a roulette design is printed on the inlay. There are 30 different designs available.

PAULSON® SECURITY FEATURES

GPI® USA never stops looking for new ways to build a bettergaming chip to satisfy the needs of the customers, especially in thearea of anti-counterfeiting. GPI USA is dedicated to developing security features in Paulson® brand chips, such as UV pigments, alpha dot and more recently, chips with embedded microchips called Chipsoft™. Casinos can add security features to the material and to the inlay.

IN THE MATERIAL:

ELP PIGMENT
ELP pigments can be added to the edge spots colors. The ELP pigments are revealed under a UV light, and the edge spot color will become fluorescent.

LASER LOCK MATERIAL (Click to view)
Laser Lock, developed by Laser Lock Technologies Inc, is a patented product developed to make products safer. Laser Lock components are mixed with the ink and are revealed as green under an invisible laser beam sent by a special pen.

CUSTOMIZED RIM
Instead of the famous Top hat and Cane mold on the outside of the chip, GPI USA can customize the edge of each chip by creating a special mold if preferred.

CHIPSOFT™ (Click to view)
Chipsoft™ is a value chip that has an embedded RFID. Chipsoft™ opens the way to bringing the casino table management systems up to the efficiency level of slot machine management systems. It allows, with proper reading equipment, a large number of highly secure, reliable and high-return application systems for table management and chip tracking.

IN THE INLAY:

UV INK (Click to view)
The Paulson brand name or logo (Top hat and Cane) can be printed on a chip in invisible UV ink. This standard Paulson UV logo will be revealed in green under a black light. A custom logo can also be added using the invisible UV ink.

ALPHA DOT
Alpha dot is a microscopic dot with text written on it. It is placed on the inlay, and can be read thanks to a lenticular lens.
