What It Is: Natural rubber scrap is derived from the latex of rubber trees (Hevea Brasiliense) and is known for its excellent elasticity, flexibility, and weather resistance. It is often used in various industrial and consumer applications.

Examples: Waste generated from the production of rubber products such as gloves, footwear, and balloons. Examples include trimmings and leftover materials from manufacturing processes.

How It’s Used: Natural rubber scrap can be reprocessed and remolded into new products or blended with synthetic rubber to enhance performance. It is commonly used in the production of rubber mats, gaskets, and seals, contributing to a circular economy by extending the life cycle of rubber materials.
