About ICEL

Industrial Control Engineering Limited was established in 1990 (originally as Quin Pacific Ltd) by a group of professional electrical and mechanical automation engineers. It has been an enduring partner to a select group of clients, providing the insight, design expertise and follow through to implement practical automation solutions.

We use our training and experience in diverse technologies to build specialist engineering services. We use computers, microcontrollers and PLCs in real-time and distributed control and data acquisition tasks. With a background in mass-produced electronics and factory automation, we can bring diverse technologies to bear on any automation task.

Industial Control Engineering was acquired by DRE Systems in 2024. We thank Paul for his time and effort in running this business. Paul will continue to support Dan and the team at DRE Systems and we look forward to providing the same level of service. Please get in touch to see how we can help.
