Products

RSS - Ribbed Smoked Sheets

Made from coagulated latex sheets, the grades of RSS are RSS1 to RSS5 and vary by  elasticity, color and purity on the basic per International Standard of IRQPC (Green Book). These grades are determined and classified through visual examination by experienced sorters and inspectors.

  • RSS 1
  • RSS 3

TSR - Technically Specified Rubber

Also known as Block Rubber, TSR can be produced from both field latex and field coagulum of NR (cuplump) or a blend of both. Block Rubber is graded accordingly to precise technical parameters including dirt, ash, nitrogen, volatile matter and its properties such as Wallace Plasticity (PO), Mooney Viscosity, Lovibond, and Plasticity Retention Index (PRI). We represent factories qualified under the major TSR schemes including Standard Thai Rubber (STR), Standard Indonesian Rubber (SIR), Standard Malaysian Rubber (SMR) and Standard Vietnamese Rubber (SVR).

Latex

Derived from field latex,  it is processed using centrifuge methods. It contains 60% of Dry Rubber Content (DRC). Types of latex are differentiated by varying the amount used of preserved ammonia used such as High Ammonia (HA) and Low Ammonia (LA/LATZ). The concentrated latex are marketed under strict technical specification, based on dry rubber content, non-rubber solid, alkalinity, mechanical stability and other parameters relating to ISO2504 specification.
