Rising Demand for Tyres to Drive the Market Growth of Natural Rubber

The natural rubber market is being driven by the increasing demand for tyres as well as latex goods like gloves, belts, catheters, condoms, and other industrial durables, among others. The growing market for these products is fuelling the demand for natural rubber as well.

The demand for natural rubber is aided by the growing economies like India and China, among others. The tyre manufacturers are planning to shift their production base to low-cost producing nations, like India, China, and others. This will help them garner more demand from the consumers as it would be more cost-effective. This plan would also drive the overall automobile sector further and provide an impetus to natural rubber demand. The demand for natural rubber is being supported by the rising demand from developing nations and their rising GDP.

The growing environmental consciousness is leading to the wide utilisation of natural rubber instead of synthetic rubber as it is plant-based, biodegradable, renewable, and has a minimal environmental impact during harvesting and manufacturing as no artificial colouring or chemical softeners are used. The advantages of natural rubber, like cost-effectiveness, flexibility, low odour, water resistance, and high tensile strength, are contributing to the natural rubber market expansion. The antibacterial characteristic of natural rubber is resulting in its increased utilisation to produce footwear and gloves that remain in close contact with the skin. Natural rubber is also considered ideal as a flooring material as it is slip-resistant, waterproof, easy to maintain and durable. The government initiatives towards offering financial assistance to motivate the growers to take up rubber cultivation and ensure the sustainability of the raw material are providing impetus to the market development. For instance, the National Rubber Policy 2019, India highlights the government’s efforts to bolster the production of natural rubber in the country. The report also mentions that a study team from Auto Tyres Manufacturing Association (ATMA) visited Tripura, an Indian state, to explore possibilities of augmenting the natural rubber production.
