Carlo Gavazzi  Ltd. (Malta)
- A success story

The local company started operations in 1976 under different owners. At that time operations were limited to the manufacturing of industrial bases for automation components. In 1985 the company started manufacturing solid state relays and three years later (1988). the group of which the local company formed part, was taken over by Carlo Gavazzi Group. This move generated fresh life into the company. In 1995 the company decided to apply for certification of its quality system, and was certified to ISO9002 requirements. During these years, a know how of modern technologies necessary to provide customers with technologically innovative and competitive solutions, in compliance with their requirements and expectations, was developed. In 1998, the company received the "Achievement in Industry Award".
