Rubber as a commodity: many end uses Rubber is a widely used material, in both naturally and synthetically sourced forms. Companies use it in the manufacturing of tires and tubes, rubber gloves, latex condoms, erasers, in adhesives and coatings, nozzles, as elastic material in clothing, and more. Accordingly, rubber is an important commodity due to its numerous uses in everyday items.   Rubber prices and rubber producers As with other internationally traded commodities that have relatively low market prices, low rubber prices have a negative impact on the rubber producers themselves. The resulting issues of poverty for natural rubber producers has led to the creation of the Fair Rubber Association (FRA), which is a multi-stakeholder association that aims to improve the lives and working conditions of the primary producers by utilizing Fair Trade principles.

 Influences on the rubber price in Japan At the beginning of 2020, manufacturing ceased worldwide due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. When production resumed, the demand for raw materials such as rubber increased, and the rubber price rose as well. At the end of 2021 and beginning of 2022 the rubber price peaked due to concerns of a rubber shortage as a result of the pandemic. Other factors that kept rubber prices up were supply chain disruptions and labor shortages in rubber-producing countries due to the pandemic. Furthermore, the demand for rubber increased as rubber products such as rubber gloves were more needed.

Rubber industry in Japan Industrial supplies and vehicle tires represented major products manufactured by the rubber industry. Japan's rubber industry has a strong position in automotive products since it is an important supplier of tires. Bridgestone ranked as the largest rubber company in Japan. In recent years, the Tokyo-based company was one of the largest global rubber tire producers, but it also produced a wide range of other rubber-based products such as rubber belts and hoses.

Rubber prices and producers worldwide Global rubber prices have experienced significant fluctuations in the 21st century, peaking in 2011 due to a higher demand from emerging markets, and supply constraints. These prices gradually recovered due to an increase in rubber tree cultivation and a slowdown in global demand. The increase in synthetic rubber production in China and the United States over the last two decades has similarly helped facilitate the stabilization of the global price of natural rubber through a supply increase. In 2023, Thailand was the largest natural rubber exporter in the world, with an export value totaling 3.6 billion U.S. dollars. This accounted for roughly 30 percent of the global value of natural rubber exports in 2023. The second-largest exporter in 2023 was Indonesia, which exported 2.5 billion U.S. dollars of natural rubber.

Supply constraints of rubber Accounting for about half of global rubber production, natural rubber is an agricultural product produced from rubber trees in Southeast Asia, home to the most natural rubber exporting countries worldwide. Being an agricultural product, the trees take numerous years to mature before being harvested, a process dependent on climate and weather conditions.
The amount of replanted rubber trees in Thailand, the largest exporter of natural rubber, has decreased year-on-year since 2019 due to a slowdown in global demand. However, land-use for natural rubber harvest area is forecast to increase globally year-over-year, reaching a maximum additional 5.1 million hectares in 2030.
