Rubber is an unsaturated organic compound made of carbon and hydrogen. Natural Rubber is collected from wild plants or plants cultivated on plantations. It is made from a secretion of certain plants that is called latex.
The production of rubber and products made of rubber is a large and diverse industry. Rubber industry is an important resource based industry sector in the world. It has witnessed a steady and strong growth over the years. Because of the wide application of rubber in both tires and non-tire applications, the present scenario as well as the future of the rubber industry is tied to the global economy.
