Natural Rubber and Gums Market was valued at USD xx million in 2021 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of xx% to reach the value of USD xx million by 2027.
Natural gum rubber is a renowned non-marking rubber material owing to its soft, supple texture and exceptional flexibility. It is a natural product generated from the sap of rubber trees that can be found in South Asia and South America. As its raw materials are obtained from trees, natural gum rubber is also an eco-friendly elastomer. One of the most significant discoveries of the modern age was the beginnings of this "green" elastomer and its contemporary version. Natural Rubber material is obtained by the method of tapping where latex is harvested from the Hevea Brasiliense tree often known as “rubber trees”. Tapping is a process in which incisions are created in the trunk of the rubber tree to allow latex material to drip out into collection bins. Natural Gum Rubber material is created after further processing.
Natural Gum Rubber has unique chemical and physical properties. It generally resists most organic salts, ammonia, acids, and alkali salts. Unlike synthetic rubbers, it does not have high levels of chemical properties and is temperature resistant. Apart from the great elasticity of its flexible rubber, it possesses other physical properties. It has a low compression set, high tensile strength and tear resistance, better surface friction and shock absorption, great resilience and abrasion resistance, and also a high coefficient of friction. This makes natural gum rubber one of the most adaptable natural materials available as it will leave less residue on whatever surface on which it is applied.
Increasing demand for the biodegradable form of rubber products or latex products such as catheters, gloves, and belts is the root cause of accelerating the growth of the Natural Rubber and Gum Market Size. Natural rubber is preferred over synthetic rubbers as it is tear resistance and possesses vibration dampening and high tensile strength properties thereby creating a demand for them in the construction and automobile industry. Furthermore, growing rubber plantations, rising applications of Rubber and Gum in food, textile chemical, and other industries are the factors fueling the demand for the Natural Rubber and Gums Market Growth.
Fluctuations in the currency rates, high transportation and packing costs will restrict the growth of the Natural Rubber and Gum market Share. Adapting the substitutes such as synthetic rubbers due to lack of awareness about Natural Gum Rubber in some areas are hampering the growth of the market.
Bridgestone launched a new race tyre “Firestone Firehawk” made with natural rubber derived from guayule, a desert shrub grown in the American Southwest. Bridgestone aims to carbon neutrality and the production of tires from 100% renewable materials by 2050, adhering to the “Emotion”, “Ecology”, and “Energy” values of the Bridgestone E8 Commitment.
Michelin launched its first tire recycling plant in collaboration with Enviro, a Swedish company that has developed a patented technology to recover oil and gas, carbon black, and steel from the expiration tires.

Natural Rubber and Gums Market Regional Analysis:
North America
Europe
Asia-Pacific
Latin America
Middle-East & Africa
Asia-Pacific is considered to grow substantially as the countries such as Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and others are the major suppliers of natural rubber across the world. The growing economies like China, India, and others are also playing an important role in increased demand for the Rubber and Gums market in the region. Most of the Tyre manufacturers are shifting from their production base to low-cost manufacturing nations like China and India ultimately resulting in increased demand from the customers. The excessive use of natural rubber-based products in food, textile chemical, health care, and other industries such as medical gloves by health care industry is accelerating the growth of its market value.
