Market Definition
Industrial rubber refers to natural or synthetic elastomers that exhibit elastic deformation under stress and return to their original shape once the stress is removed. These materials are valued for their high durability, flexibility, and resistance to heat, chemicals, and abrasion. Industrial rubber plays a critical role in the automotive sector, where it is used in tires, seals, gaskets, and vibration-dampening components. Beyond automotive, it finds wide application in building & construction, industrial manufacturing, polymer modification, wire & cable, electrical & electronics, bitumen modification, coating, sealant, & adhesive, medical & healthcare, and others. Its versatility and performance characteristics make it essential across a broad range of industrial uses.
