PDIC
Phelps Dodge Thailand Ltd. (PDTL) was established in 1968 as a joint venture between an existing Thai firm and Phelps 
Dodge Corporation. We have been pioneers in the local industry and have been the first to introduce the majority of new processes, products and technology related to wire and cable used today. We manufacture a complete line of copper and aluminum wire and cable products for the transmission, distribution and industrial application of electrical energy, as well as for a wide range of telecommunication applications.
We manufacture world-class quality wire and cable, not only for the local market but also for international markets, complying with strict international standards. We are proud of our customer service and long-term business relationships.

Plant Profile
Bangplee Plant
Phelps Dodge's facility at Bangplee, Samutprakarn, is one of the most modern wire and cable plants in Southeast Asia with world class manufacturing capabilities. Built in response to the increase in demand for wire and cable products, the plant incorporates the latest technology and highest quality control standards throughout the production process. At present, the complex features a vertical continuous vulcanization (VCV) tower, which is the first vertical cross-link high voltage insulating unit in southeast Asia and one of the few of its kind in the world. The facility can also produce low voltage power cables, internal and external telecommunications cables, and local area network cable. This plant has been carefully designed to ensure a dust-free environment for the production of high quality Medium Voltage, High Voltage and Extra High Voltage XLPE cables.
