Europe Natural Rubber Price

The market followed an upward trend in late 2023, although it experienced some fluctuations due to inflationary pressures and increased input costs. In the Netherlands, consistent domestic demand helped sustain price increases, but broader European market conditions were affected by global logistics issues, including disruptions in the Red Sea impacting the transportation of goods through the Suez Canal. These challenges led to increased logistical costs and delayed deliveries.

North America Natural Rubber Price

The market exhibited a positive trend, influenced by increased demand notably from Asian markets, which spurred a rise in natural rubber prices early in the fourth quarter. This increase in prices was countered by early price increases by downstream businesses especially as they anticipated the winter demand. In addition, the obstacles like ports’ congestion, lack of containers, and the rise in shipping costs because of political tensions and disruptions in the key sea channels including Suez Canal added to the difficulties, elevating costs.

Natural Rubber Market Analysis 

The global natural rubber industry size reached US$ 17.4 Billion in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 27.8 Billion, at a projected CAGR of 5.30% during 2023-2032.

  • The global natural rubber market is primarily driven by the rapidly growing automotive sector. With the gradual shift towards electric vehicles (EVs) and the continued growth of the automotive industry there is a steady increase in the consumption of tires which are one of the largest end-use applications of the natural rubber.
  • For instance, according to the Indian Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), India could be a leader in shared mobility by 2030, providing opportunities for electric and autonomous vehicles.
  • As countries worldwide are implementing stricter regulations on vehicle emissions and fuel efficiency standards manufacturers nowadays are increasingly opting for the tires with higher natural rubber content due to their superior performance and eco friendliness as compared to synthetic rubber alternatives.
  • The growing middle-class population in the emerging economies particularly in Asia-Pacific regions like China and India is driving the demand for automobiles further stimulating the global natural rubber market.
  • The construction industry is also driving the natural rubber market. For instance, according to market reports, the construction industry entered 2023 marked by a 7% increase in nominal value added and a 6% increase in nominal gross output compared to the previous year. As of the third quarter of 2023, nominal construction spending maintained a steady upward path.
  • Rubber products, such as hoses, seals and gaskets are extensively used in construction applications for their enhanced flexibility, durability, and resistance to weathering. As global infrastructure development projects continue to rise, mainly in urban areas and developing countries, the demand for rubber-based construction materials is expected to increase.
  • The increasing focus on sustainable building practices and green infrastructure is stimulating the use of natural rubber, which is renewable, and biodegradable as compared to synthetic rubber alternatives. This trend is further stimulated by the government initiatives promoting environmentally friendly construction material and renewable resources.
  • The growing healthcare industry is also driving the natural rubber market. Natural rubber latex is extensively used in the manufacturing of medical gloves, catheters, and other medical devices due to its excellent durability, elasticity and bio compatibility.

Natural Rubber News

The report covers the latest developments, updates, and trends impacting the global natural rubber industry, providing stakeholders with timely and relevant information. This segment covers a wide array of news items, including the inauguration of new production facilities, technological innovations, strategic market expansions by key industry players, and significant mergers and acquisitions that impact the natural rubber price trend.

Latest developments in the natural rubber industry:

  • In June 2023, Pirelli signed an agreement to acquire 100% of Hevea-Tec, the biggest independent processor of natural rubber in Brazil, for an Enterprise Value of around 21 million euros. With this acquisition, Pirelli plans to increase Hevea-Tec's production volumes and launch innovative projects focused on non-fossil-based materials for tires.
  • In February 2024, the Indian government increased funding for the sustainable development of the natural rubber sector by 23%, raising the allocation from ₹576.41 crore to ₹708.69 crore for the financial years 2024-26. The rate of assistance for growers has also increased from ₹25,000 to ₹40,000 per hectare to cover rising production costs. In traditional rubber-producing states like Kerala, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu, 12,000 hectares will be cultivated, while 3,752 hectares in non-traditional areas such as Andhra Pradesh and Odisha will also see rubber cultivation.

Product Description

Natural rubber, which is scientifically known as latex is a versatile and renewable elastomer. It is derived from the sap of Hevea brasiliensis tree, which is generally known as the rubber tree. The milky white liquid is harvested through a process called tapping where the shallow incisions are made in the bark of the tree allowing the latex to flow into the collection cups. Upon exposure to the air the latex undergoes a natural process called coagulation which results in the formation of solid rubber. Natural rubber exhibits remarkable properties such as resilience, high elasticity and tear resistance making it an indispensable raw material in various industries all across the world. It is extensively used in the manufacturing of automotive parts, conveyor belts, medical gloves, tires, footwear and other ranges of consumer goods.
