In many applications there are very high demands on the performance of rubber, both mechanically and chemically. Many of the current recycling processes are not capable of producing these high performance rubbers. However, there are already bio-based ingredients that can produce a rubber of similar or better quality with a much lower carbon footprint and lower demand on fossil resources. We see the future of rubber as one where the ability to produce high quality rubber with bio-based or recycled content will increase, and where the use of recycled and bio-based materials for less demanding rubber applications will become standard practice. So that there will never be a day when we cannot produce rubber due to a lack of resources.
