Press Release Summary = Leading provider of barcode data capture technology,
Datalogic has launched a new website to support its ongoing national partnership
with UK children's charity NSPCC.

Press Release Body = To celebrate Datalogic's 25th year of successful trading in the
UK Auto-ID market the company elected to do something it believed would be more
rewarding, valuable and inclusive than just throwing a party. Instead Datalogic
wanted to recognise its achievements, have some fun and share the experience with
its channel partners, resellers, suppliers and customers alike. The company also
wanted to do something that reflects the Datalogic corporate culture and values.
Working with the UK children's charity the NSPCC (National Society of Prevention of
Cruelty to Children) enables the company and its partners to recognise past
successes, do something positive, rewarding, motivational, team oriented, fun and
look forward to a bright future.

Together with its channel partners Datalogic is pledged to raise £25000 on behalf of
the NSPCC. The new website, which can be found at www.datalogic-nspcc.com explains
why Datalogic and the NSPCC are working together. The site also features a donations
page, technology news feed, video, online games, events calendar, sponsors and
partners page and activity highlights page. Currently Datalogic is fielding two
teams in the Three Peaks 24 hour Challenge. This is a race against the clock to
climb and descend the three highest mountain peaks in the UK: Ben Nevis, Sca Fell
Pike and Snowdon.

The new co-branded website enables Datalogic to promote its business, encourage
partners to participate in fund-raising activities, publicise the NSPCC's vital
work, generate donations, and allow visitors to have some fun.

Green Spot and FULL STOP appeal
Business winning barcode technology is predicated on the ability to successful read
barcodes faster, first time, reliably and regardless of conditions. Datalogic
possesses the \'Green spot\' a piece of patent technology whereby the red laser scan
line changes to a green spot when a barcode is correctly read by a Datalogic
hand-held barcode reader or mobile computer. The Datalogic Green spot provides a
visual confirmation of a "good read" where the operator is looking, on the barcode.
This is particularly valuable in noisy industrial, low-light and scan intensive
environments.

The new Datalogic Dragon industrial hand-held barcode reader goes even further with
its Three Green Lights (3GL) whereby an operator is sure of a good read confirmation
regardless of how the device is oriented. This is extremely useful for scanning
items that might be stored or packed in out-of-the-way or awkward places, such high
up on racking units. This key differentiator of many Datalogic products has a
natural synergy with the NSPCC's highly successful FULL STOP advertising campaign,
which employs a distinctive Green Dot motif.

The fabric of society is switched together using barcode technology
Barcode and data capture technology plays an essential role in everyday life,
everything from ensuring letters and parcels arrive on peoples' doorsteps to
stocking the shelves of their local supermarkets. Increasingly, barcodes and RFID
tags ensure hospital patients receive the right drugs, transfusions and operations,
and keep track of vital, expensive assets. This very human side of what Datalogic
does is something often overlooked. By working with the NSPCC, a highly respected
and nationally recognised charity, Datalogic hopes to inform businesses, charities,
and public administration about the positive benefits of its technologies; raise
brand awareness among key verticals; and generate new business. At the same time,
the company aims to raise funds that will help support the NSPCC's 38 Family Support
projects, nine domestic violence units, and seven Young Witness Support teams which
have helped over 1,000 children give evidence in court.
