Rubber
Rubber
Rubber is mainly produced in Asia and shipped to Hamburg on pallets. Because of the relatively large and constant profit as well as the sharply increased prices at present there are also many new plantations in (West) Africa. High demand and constant quality mean that a large proportion of rubber imported can be sent directly to industry.
Rubber needs to be kept in a very warm temperature-regulated warehouse and in a warmth chamber. Before storing care should be taken that there is no typical transport damage to the tropical products, including rubber- specific attributes, such as wood splinter pollution.
