IoT Solutions Malta

IoT Solutions Malta designs and builds the small, rugged, battery-powered sensors that let a business watch tanks, meters, generators, fridges, car parks and vehicles from a phone or laptop. The company is based on Marsa Industrial Estate, a short distance from Valletta, and its mission is to make the Internet of Things, usually shortened to IoT, accessible to everyone through engineering innovation.

For a UK reader, IoT simply means everyday equipment fitted with a sensor and a mobile connection so that it can report its own condition. A water tank can tell you it is nearly full, a generator can warn you before it runs out of diesel, and a cold room can raise an alert before the stock spoils. The company is listed on VisitMalta.co.uk with our other IT companies in Malta, and it is most useful to operators of infrastructure, hotels, marinas, contractors and facilities teams.

Company background

IoT Solutions Malta Ltd was founded in 2017 as a hardware and software development company based in Malta, within the European Union. It forms part of the M. Demajo Group, which was founded in 1910 and today spans 35 companies in sectors including consumer goods, industry and infrastructure, tourism, IT, financial services and manufacturing. Together with other shareholders, the group co-founded the company with the aim of becoming a global leader in low-power IoT technology. Readers interested in that wider business landscape can browse our overview of financial services in Malta.

The company designs and builds low-power, autonomous hardware devices, embedded firmware and cloud platforms from the ground up, which means the devices, the software and the support come from one maker. Its focus is product supply, development, customisation and system integration. Sensors collect real-world data that is combined with cloud-based artificial intelligence, to help governments, municipalities and private businesses become more efficient and sustainable.

The founder and managing director is Ing. Reuben Camilleri, and the team includes sales and marketing executives and a customer relations and support lead. A technical operator vacancy is open and is an equal opportunity employer.

The IoT Pro hardware platform

Everything the company sells is built on its IoT Pro hardware platform, a family of modules that each handle one sensing or data-gathering job. There are modules for radar and tilt sensing, submersible level probes, tilt detection, a pedal module for checking that safety equipment is in its housing, industrial input and output, RS485 and RS232 connections to older equipment, generators, diesel tanks, energy meters, water meters, location tracking, temperature, temperature with humidity, and in-ground parking sensors.

Customers choose power, connectivity and fittings to suit the site. Power can come from an external DC supply with a small backup battery that reports power loss and restoration, or from an internal battery rated for up to 10 years of operation in typical low-power monitoring. Connectivity options include NB-IoT, 4G LTE Cat-1, LoRaWAN, Wi-Fi and Sigfox, with NB-IoT recommended where it is available because of its battery efficiency and deep indoor and underground coverage.

Devices can be preconfigured at the factory so they connect as soon as they are fitted. On site, activation takes a press of a button in a mobile app or the removal of a peelable magnet. Location tracking through satellite positioning is optional and is recommended only for moving assets, since it adds cost and power use. A traceable calibration certificate is available for temperature modules.

Water, fuel and energy monitoring

The water and wastewater system gives live visibility of cesspits, drainage networks, water tanks, wells and meters, with level and consumption readings, instant alerts and historical analytics on one cloud platform. Sensors suit tanks, reservoirs, manholes and mobile tankers, and the same radar module can monitor parking spaces.

Diesel tank management tracks fuel level in real time, with alerts and detailed refuelling logs that help stop misuse, detect theft and avoid unexpected run-outs. Generator monitoring reports diesel level, run time, battery health, power events and test runs, across any brand or model, to a central dashboard. Both are useful for construction sites, fleets and any building with standby power.

The energy management system centralises single-phase and three-phase meters, so you can spot waste, check power quality, understand how long machines run, allocate energy costs and prepare carbon reporting. Demand for cooling and water rises in the heat, and our Malta weather guide shows how temperatures change through the year.

Cold chain, parking and yachts

Temperature and environment monitoring covers fridges, freezers, cold rooms and other temperature-critical equipment, with instant alerts and automated reports ready for HACCP food-safety checks. A temperature and humidity version suits warehouses, regulated environments and storage such as museums and document archives, where both readings must be tracked together. Heritage sites like the Ħal Saflieni Hypogeum show why stable conditions matter for fragile places, though the company does not name that site as a client.

Parking management brings on-street, indoor and marina parking together in one platform. It monitors live occupancy, supports enforcement and helps increase availability and revenue, using in-ground sensors that cover paid and timed bays, resident and permit zones, disabled and priority bays, EV charging bays and no-parking zones.

Vehicle and asset tracking follows vehicles, drivers, equipment, refrigerated transport and marine assets from one secure platform. It aims to reduce fuel costs, improve driver behaviour, automate alerts, manage maintenance and compliance and share live arrival times. The yacht monitoring system watches shore power, bilge activity, batteries, location and onboard security, so an owner can check a vessel from anywhere. Boat owners and buyers can also look at 73 Marine, a yacht broker in our directory.

Who uses it and how it connects

The company groups its work by industry: water utilities and distribution, energy utilities and power infrastructure, industrial and manufacturing, construction, projects and rentals, retail and hospitality, smart cities and urban mobility, logistics and transport, commercial property and facilities, and marine and yachting. Its blog discusses how IoT helps hotels in Malta monitor energy, generators, cold storage and water systems from a single platform, which is a useful read if you are weighing up hotels in Malta from the operator's side.

Customers can use the IoT Solutions cloud platform, which offers dashboards, alerts, reports and a REST API for connecting to other systems, or an on-premise version for large or special deployments that need full control of their data. Software integrators can instead take the hardware alone, as a one-time purchase with no subscription, and send the data to their own systems. A mobile app and a product selector help customers specify the right module, and the company also works with software integrators, distributors and resellers.

A free 30 minute consultation and a live demo are available, and existing customers can raise support tickets for devices, alerts, reports or faults. If you are new to the island and exploring where the company sits, our Valletta guide shows the capital that Marsa borders.

Getting started

Because every site is different, the company does not publish a price list. Pricing, demos, new installations and project documentation are discussed once the team understands what you want to measure. The product selector asks about the power source, connectivity, antenna, SIM card, location tracking and integration route, and the engineers will recommend a set-up if you are unsure.

Nearby, you will find other business services in our directory, such as AE Business Advisors and AIB Insurance Brokers, which may help a company setting up in the area.
