Anniversary

25 years of ARBURG Thailand

1:10 min Management, Asia Pacific
Loßburg, Germany

ARBURG (Thailand) Co., Ltd. was founded in 2001. Together with its previous representation through a representation, ARBURG can look back on a total of around four decades of sales history in Thailand. As part of the ‘arburgXcellence Day’ anniversary event on 9 October 2026, the 25th anniversary of the ARBURG subsidiary in Bangkok was celebrated, and Khun Ratree Boonsay, the long-standing Managing Director of the ARBURG subsidiary in Thailand, was bid farewell as she retired.

A decades-long success story

The first two machines were delivered in the 1990s to a Thai customer who has remained loyal to ARBURG to this day. In 1992, a representative office was opened in Thailand. The local presence and the importance of the South-East Asian market grew steadily, leading to the establishment of a dedicated ARBURG organisation in Thailand in 2001. Khun Ratree Boonsay, who had previously headed the representative office, took over as Managing Director. In 2019, the subsidiary moved to its current location in Samut Prakarn, a suburb of Bangkok. Covering 705 square metres, this is ARBURG’s largest showroom in South-East Asia. The ARBURG Thailand team now comprises ten employees.

At the “arburgXcellence Day”, the new electric ALLROUNDER TREND machines were presented to customers and partners. In addition, the customers Polynet Public and Unique Sea Products were honoured with the “Partnership Excellence Award” in recognition of their long-standing and close cooperation with ARBURG Thailand. Another award went to the Thai-German Institute in Bangkok/Chonburi, a non-profit educational institution and technology transfer centre. It was an emotional moment at the end of the thoroughly successful anniversary celebration when Khun Ratree Boonsay was bid farewell as she entered her well-deserved retirement, to loud applause from everyone present.
