A way forward for sustainable Rubber Products

through specially developed Rubber Process Oils

Mr. Mehul Patel – Technical Director

 Sustainability

 Definition

 Sustainability is a societal goal that broadly

aims for humans to safely co-exist on Earth
over a long time.

 Zero waste , bio degradability are good

examples of sustainability.
 Sustainability in Rubber
Industry

 Reusable , Reduction of
Carbon Emission, Bio
Degradable products,
decrease in deforestation,
transforming Carbon Dioxide
into fertilizer etc.
