A.P.C. Industries Co., Ltd. was established in 1969 by a group of Thai engineers to produce at first a jointless flooring materials with technology from Germany. A production plant was built on Ramindra Road in the eastern suburb of Bangkok. Gradually production was expanded to include emulsion paints, enamel paints, multi-coloured paints and several kinds of textured finishes for the building industries, and traffic paints and thermoplastic road marking materials for the road marking industries.

     In 1973 another company, A.P.C.I. Co.,Ltd., was registered by the group to carry out painting and road marking contracts using A.P.C. Industries' products. A.P.C.I. is an approved road marking contractor to the Thai Department of Highways for Cold Paint, Hot Paint and Thermoplastic Road Marking Contracts.

     In 1990 the company started a plant to manufacture reflective glass beads in Bangchan Industrial Estate, operating under the supervision of the Industrial Estate Authority of Thailand, in Bungkum District of Bangkok. Eventually all the paint and thermoplastic facilities were moved from Ramindra to Bangchan where the company has a total land area of nearly 16,000 sq.m.

     To meet increase in demand of its thermoplastic road marking materials and reflective glass beads, the group formed Prachin Traffic Products Co.,Ltd. to set up a factory for these products in Prachinburi, about 120 km. east of Bangkok, in 1996. After receiving the Thai Government Board of Investment promotional privileges, Traffic Products began production at the end of 1997.
