HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, toured Dedicated Micros' production facility in Malta where products such as the DV-IP and Digital Sprite 2 are manufactured.

Dedicated Micros is the second largest British-owned manufacturing company on the island and the Duke's visit was timed to coincide with HM Queen Elizabeth's attendance at the Commonwealth Head of Government Meeting (CHOGM).

During his tour the Duke was able to see the advanced Surface Mount Technology section where automatic pick and place machines are installed. He was also briefed by Dedicated Micros (Malta) Directors Noel Micallef and Stephen Muscat on the manufacturing processes and stringent testing and given a demonstration of products in action.

Micallef, Director of Operations, said the high profile visit reflected the company's impressive export success which saw it win the International Trade section of the Queen's Award for Industry in 2003.

DM has ambitious expansion plans in Malta and is currently developing a new site at Bulebel which will double manufacturing capacity to meet demands.
