DTAC Logo PNG
DTAC is the common name of Total Access Communication Public Company Limited. It is known as the third-largest GSM mobile phone provider in Thailand.
Meaning and history
DTAC was founded as a limited company in the summer of 1989. It aimed to provide wireless telecommunications services under a “Build-Transfer-Operate” concession.
2002 – 2007
The previous logo showcased the short name of the company in large sans serif letters. Interestingly, the “TAC” part was at the forefront. Also, it was written in a bright, eye-catching shade of blue. While the “D” was the initial, it was somehow overshadowed by “TAC” both due to the palette (the “D” was dark blue) and the position (the “D” was “hiding” behind the “T”).
The thin dark blue frame, into which the text was placed, was shaped like a SIM-card. This created a link with the industry to which the company belonged.
2007 – 2018
The font is similar to Marsden Text Condensed Regular in the previous logo was replaced by a finer font with thinner strokes that otherwise looked the same. The three-petal shape no longer had a three-dimensional look. It was made smaller and done using a solid sky-blue color. The accent in this logo was placed on the company’s name. The lack of a gradient somehow made the logo look more modern and stylish while preserving a brand image that became recognizable.
2018 – 2023
Following the acquisition by Telenor, DTAC adopted a new emblem. This time, it was based on the logo of the new parent company, Telenor.
The updated DTAC logo was dominated by the blue three-part shape from Telenor’s emblem. Next to it, there was the word “DTAC” in lowercase letters. The type was very light. Both the size of the letters and their weight worsened the legibility. Such logos are typically intended for consumers who are already familiar with the brand.
