St. Gallen - Villingen-Schwenningen - DCS Europe ID Solutions GmbH announced today its plan to adopt fully the name Multicard and to change its legal name to Multicard GmbH. The Company officially launched its new identity at a reception for employees and customers from Germany and Switzerland.

Jürgen Müller, General Manager of Multicard GmbH in Germany commented: "We are very happy about the positive feedback from customers, partners and suppliers. Our decision to adopt the Multicard name will enable us and our new mother company in Switzerland to increase the market awareness of our activity across our various market segments from the consumer card market to our corporate and National ID customers." Müller further added: "With our strong international business track record in many world markets and with the tremendous reputation Multicard established in Switzerland we believe the Multicard name represents our future best and I am really pleased and proud that our employees and customers agree and support our approach."

Marco Avanzini, General Manager of Multicard AG in Switzerland commented on the launch of the new identity for Switzerland and Germany: "I am very happy with the coming together of the expanded Multicard under a new identity, and I am particularly pleased that the former DCS team took the lead in the process. Werner Vogt, member of the board of directors of Multicard, added: "Many combinations of business often promise too much and we are all working diligently to make the new Multicard a better company and broader based company for our customers and employees."

Multicard AG focuses on the printing, programming and issuance of identification cards with strong focus on the consumer sector.
