The Size of Global Natural Rubber and Gums Market is anticipated to grow from USD 21.07 billion in 2024 to 25.39 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2024 to 2029.
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 fuelling 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.
