INDUSTRY PROFILE:

In its native Central America and South America, rubber has been collected for a

long time. The Mesoamerican civilizations used rubber mostly from Castillo elastic. The Ancient

Mesoamericans had a ball game using rubber balls (see: Mesoamerican ball game), and a few

Pre-Columbian rubber balls have been found (always in sites that were flooded under fresh

water), the earliest dating to about 1600 BC, According Bernal Diaz del Castillo, the Spanish

Conquistadores were so astounded by the vigorous bouncing of the rubber balls of the Aztecs

that they wondered if the balls were enchanted by evil spirits. The Maya also made a type of

temporary rubber shoe by dipping their feet into a latex mixture. Rubber was used in various

other contests. Such as strips to hold stone and metal tools to wooden handles, and padding for

the tool handles. While the ancient Mesoamericans did not have vulcanization, they developed

organic methods of processing the rubber with similar results, mixing the raw latex with various

saps and juices of other vines, particularly ipomoea Alba, and a species of Morning glory.

In Brazil the natives understand the use of rubber to make water resistant cloth. A

story says that the first European to return to Portugal from Brazil samples of such water

repellent rubberized cloth so shocked people that he was brought to court on the charge of which

craft.

When samples of rubber first arrived in England, it was observed that a piece of

the material was extremely good for rubbing out pencil marks on paper. This was the origin of

the materials are still used for this purpose, and known as Rubbers in British English, causing

occasional amusement to speakers of American English, to whom a Rubber is a condom

(usually made from latex) (American English uses Eraser to refer to the rubber block).

The Para rubber tree initially grew in South America, where it was the main source of

what limited amount of latex rubber was consumed during much of the 19th

century. About 100

years ago, the Congo Free State in Africa was a significant source of natural rubber latex, but

after repeated efforts (see Henry Wickham) it was successfully cultivated in Southeast Asia,

where it is now widely grown.

Indian scenario

Since the establishment of the first rubber goods manufacturing unit in 1921 at

Kolkata, the Indian rubber industry has maintained its forward march, particularly during the

post-independence period. It has achieved overall expansion through increase in the range of

products manufactured, in the number of units, in technological sophistication and self-

sufficiency. Besides catering to the entire domestic demand, the industry is breaking new

barriers on the export front. It projects tremendous growth in the 21st century. The factors

responsible for this phenomenal expansion are vast internal market, rapid industrialization,

on-going economic reforms, and improved living standards of the masses.

India is the fourth largest producer of natural rubber and second largest

consumer of natural rubber; and fifth largest consumer of natural rubber and synthetic rubber

together in the world. India is the worlds largest manufacturer of reclaim rubber. India is

first in productivity of natural rubber. The per capita consumption of rubber in India is only

990 gms. against 9 to 16 kilos in Japan, USA and Europe. This envisages tremendous growth

prospects of the industry in the years to come.

With around 6000 units comprising 30 large scale, 300 medium scale and

around 5670 SSI / tiny sector units, manufacturing 35000 rubber products, employing

directly 400 hundred thousand people, including around 22000 technically qualified support

personnel. The Indian Rubber Industry plays a core sector role in the Indian national

economy. The industry has certain distinct advantages like - an extensive plantation sector;

indigenous availability of the basic raw materials, like natural rubber, synthetic rubber,

reclaim rubber, carbon black, rubber chemicals, fatty acids, rayon, and nylon yarn and so on;

large domestic market; availability of cheap labor; training facility in various technical

institutes; improved living standards of the masses. All these ground support help the Indian

rubber industry to poise for an all round development and a quantum jump in production and

technology up gradation in near future.

The wide range of rubber products manufactured by the Indian rubber

industry comprises all types of heavy duty earth moving tyres, auto tyres, tubes, automobile

parts, footwear, beltings, hoses, cycle tyres and tubes, cables and wires, camelback, battery

boxes, latex products, pharmaceutical goods, besides moulded and extruded goods for mass

consumption. The products manufactured also cover hi-tech industrial items. The important

areas which the industry caters to include all the three wings of defense, civil, aviation,

aeronautics, railways, agriculture, transport as also textiles, engineering industries,

pharmaceuticals, mines, steel plants, ports, family planning programmes, hospitals, sports,

i.e. practically to every conceivable field.

India rubber industry is basically divided into two sectors - tyre and non-tyre.

The tyre sector produces all types of auto tyres, conventional as well as radial tyres and

exports to advanced countries like USA, EU etc. The non-tyre sector comprises the large,

medium scale, small scale and tiny units. It produces high technology and sophisticated

industrial products. The small-scale sector accounts for over 50% of production of rubber

goods in the non-tyre sector. The Indian rubber products have been exported to around 190

countries in the world including USA, Russia, UK, Bangladesh, Italy, Nepal, Germany,

Oman, France, Saudi Arabia, UAE, African countries etc. and exports have gone up

manifold.

The yardstick to measure the growth rate of the industry is rubber consumption. Besides

yearly consumption of rubbers - natural, synthetic and reclaim, there are other raw materials like

carbon black, rubber chemicals, tyre cords, plasticizers, process oils, zinc oxide, stearic acid,

titanium dioxide, and other miscellaneous chemicals which are mostly available indigenously.

This apart, almost all types of major rubber machinery are being manufactured in the country.
