Ireland is Intel's centre of manufacturing excellence in Europe. Since 1989, Intel has invested US$7 billion turning 360 acres of the Collinstown Industrial Park into the most advanced industrial campus in Europe.
Over 4,000 people work at the Leixlip, County Kildare campus. Additionally, there are over 200 people employed at Intel Communications Europe located in Shannon, County Clare, which is the Ireland product
development arm of our Communications Product Group.
Our Leixlip campus is the location of our Fab 10 and Fab 24 semiconductor wafer fabrication facilities. Fab 10, a 200mm facility, is currently equipped to produce high-mix low-volume products-three times more
individual products than any other Intel 200mm facility worldwide. The Fab 24 facility produces 300mm wafers on multiple process technologies and is one of Intel's most technologically advanced, high-volume
manufacturing plants in the world.
The core advanced manufacturing capability at the Leixlip site is a key enabler for numerous research and development initiatives including Silicon Nanoelectronics Research. The Ireland campus is also home to
other Intel businesses including the Innovation Open Lab — Ireland (IOL) and
the Health Research and Innovation team.
Intel Ireland incorporates environmental performance goals throughout our operations, seeking continuous improvement in energy efficiency, emissions reductions, resource conservation, and other areas.
Corporate responsibility at Intel Ireland reflects our deep respect for people and for the communities around us at both a local and
national level. This means listening to, learning from, and communicating openly with all of our stakeholders. Intel Ireland employees are deeply involved in a number of activities and programs with local
communities and are committed to making positive contributions to them.
In 2009 Intel celebrated their 20th anniversary of operations in Ireland — we look forward to the next 20 years of success working as a team on the Ireland site and across our community and country.
