TARRC, through its consultancy unit Rubber Consultants, provides R&D and testing for rubber, elastomers, and polymer systems. We support clients across automotive, construction, energy, healthcare, and manufacturing, combining laboratory testing with practical engineering experience. Our services cover analytical and materials characterisation, product and material testing, product and compound development, engineering and design, as well as contract research, technical support, specialist training, and tyre testing. We work closely with clients to solve material challenges, from failure analysis and performance issues to new product development and validation. A key strength of TARRC / Rubber Consultants is the ability to link detailed materials science with real-world application—turning data into practical, commercially viable solutions. Our laboratories are equipped with a wide range of mechanical, chemical, and surface analysis techniques to support this work. We are also involved in collaborative research and innovation projects, including work related to the circularity of rubber, such as evaluating and using recycled materials where appropriate. Our approach is straightforward and responsive—focused on delivering clear results and solutions that work in practice.
