Rubber futures traded around 218 US cents per kilogram in late July, continuing to move within a tight range since early this month amid the absence of a clear market direction. Trading remained subdued as lower oil prices following a pause in hostilities between the US and Iran reduced the cost advantage of natural rubber over synthetic alternatives. Demand concerns also persisted as the EU's anti-dumping duties on Chinese car and light truck tires continued to weigh on the outlook by raising the risk of weaker Chinese tire exports and lower consumption. Meanwhile, ongoing supply constraints in Southeast Asia due to El Niño continued to provide underlying support, offsetting some of the downward pressure on prices. Elsewhere, Thailand's natural rubber exports, excluding compound rubber, totaled 1.203 million tonnes in the first half of 2026, down 13% from a year earlier.

Rubber fell to 213.50 USD Cents / Kg on July 30, 2026, down 1.66% from the previous day.

Rubber
Natural rubber is high resilience, extremely waterproof, and stretchable material. Is used extensively in many applications and products, either alone or in combination with other materials. The biggest producers of rubber are China, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. Others include Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, and India. Rubber Futures are available for trading on several exchanges including Osaka Exchange, Singapore Exchange (SGX), the Malaysian Rubber Exchange and the Shanghai International Energy Exchange.

Rubber Futures Ease
Rubber futures eased to around 217 US cents per kilogram in late July, trading within a narrow range since early this month, as weather-related disruptions in key rubber-producing countries had little impact on the broader seasonal increase in supply. Thailand, the world's largest rubber producer, has entered its peak tapping season, with output in the south beginning to recover as rainfall eased in late June and early July. Adding to downside pressure, EU anti-dumping tariffs on Chinese tire imports fueled concerns over weaker demand for natural rubber, while China's slowing economy and a ninth consecutive monthly decline in vehicle sales in June further dampened the demand outlook. Meanwhile, elevated oil prices limited some losses by making synthetic rubber more expensive, boosting the competitiveness of natural rubber.

Rubber Trades at 3-Week High
Rubber futures rose above 218 US cents per kilogram in mid-July, reaching a three-week high as rainfall in key producing regions disrupted near-term latex harvesting. Still, analysts noted that the weather-related disruptions are unlikely to offset the broader seasonal increase in supply. Thailand, the world's largest rubber producer, has entered its peak tapping season, with output in the south beginning to recover as rainfall eased in late June and early July. Elevated oil prices also supported natural rubber by making synthetic alternatives more expensive. However, gains were capped by EU anti-dumping duties on Chinese tire imports, raising fears of weaker natural rubber consumption. Additional pressure came from China's slowing economic growth and a ninth straight monthly decline in vehicle sales in June.
