Press Release Summary = 12 June 2007, Watford, UK - Two teams from Datalogic, the
world leading barcode technology manufacturer, successfully completed the gruelling
Three Peaks Corporate Challenge 1st and 2nd June 2007 on behalf of UK based
children's charity NSPCC.

Press Release Body = The Three Peaks Corporate Challenge is a 24 hour race against
the clock to conquer the three highest mountain peaks in the UK (Ben Nevis, 1,344m,
Scotland, Sca Fell Pike, 978m, England, Mount Snowdon, 1,085m, Wales).

Setting off from Datalogic's Redbourn offices, the two teams drove 469 miles to Fort
William, Scotland, where the challenge officially started. After safety briefings
and final equipment checks the two teams (Datalogic Dragons and Datalogic OA Saints)
set off from Glen Nevis at 2.32pm and 3.06pm respectively toward the snow-caped
summit of Ben Nevis, the UK's highest mountain.

Having successfully scaled Ben Nevis and returned, the teams then climbed aboard
their mini-buses and drove 235.5 miles to Sca Fell Pike. Team members had to change
out of wet clothes, eat and try to sleep, on route. Arriving in the early hours of
Saturday morning, the Datalogic teams donned head torches and started the steep,
precarious climb up to Sca Fell Pike in darkness. The Datalogic Dragons started at
2.54am and the Datalogic OA Saints followed at 3.05am. The teams reached the summit
checkpoint at 5.45am and 5.30am.

Fatigued and footsore the teams descended Sca Fell Pike, climbed back into their
mini-buses and drove 183.3 miles to the third and final peak, Mount Snowdon. The
Datalogic OA Saints made exceptional progress and complete the entire challenge in
just 23 hours 35 minutes. The Datalogic Dragons finished in a respectable 25 hours
21 minutes.

The event organisers, Merseyventure brought the event to a close with an award
ceremony, buffet and entertainment. Of the 15 teams that took part the Datalogic OA
Saints finished fifth and the Datalogic Dragons ninth overall.

Datalogic is an NSPCC national partner. Together with its channel partners and
suppliers, Datalogic aims to raise £25,000 for the children's charity during 2007.
Although Datalogic is still busy collecting sponsorship it estimates raising over
£4000 from the event for the NSPCC.

In the course of the event Datalogic teams climbed 3,407m/11,177ft, drove 419 miles
between peaks and over 1300 miles round trip.

Paul Duggan, Director, EMEA Northern Region, said, "It's been a fantastic effort by
everyone involved; a terrific, memorable experience for the Datalogic teams; and
raised much needed funds for our national charity partner the NSPCC."

Tony Gardiner, NSPCC corporate appeals manager, said, "The NSPCC depends on
voluntary income to continue its vital work across the country and maintain the
level of service to local children and young people who have suffered abuse.
Businesses can have a huge impact at the heart of every community and we are
incredibly grateful for Datalogic's continued support. We would also like to say a
special thank you to everyone involved in the Three Peaks Challenge."
