On July 1, 1979, the first production line of the plant was launched in Bila Tserkva. In 1996 the company was reorganized into PJSC Tribo, later into Tribo Ltd.[6]

In 2005, Tribo Company founded the representative office in Kazakhstan and in 2009 a production of the brake pads for the freight and passenger cars was established here too. Tribo is the only manufacturer of these products in Kazakhstan.[7]
