Rubber Companies in Malaysia

Rubber companies in Malaysia are responsible for the production of natural rubber in the country. Malaysia is the world’s third-largest producer of natural rubber, with a production volume of 1.63 million metric tons in 2018. The majority of Malaysia’s rubber production is exported, with the United States, China, and Japan being the main destinations.

The Malaysian rubber industry is dominated by a handful of large companies, which are mostly publicly listed on the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange. The three largest rubber companies in Malaysia by market capitalization are Malaysian Rubber Board, Malaysian Rubber Estates, and Malaysian Rubber Development. These companies are all involved in the production and processing of natural rubber.

The Malaysian rubber industry has been facing challenges in recent years, due to declining rubber prices and competition from synthetic rubber. However, the industry is still an important contributor to the Malaysian economy, and is expected to continue to grow in the future.
