Natural rubber in India is mainly produced by small holder farmers and being the highest foreign currency generating agricultural commodity is of great importance for the Indian economy. Nevertheless, due to the lack of appropriate dryers, more than 80% of the total production has to be sold as low-grade Ribbed Smoked Sheet (RSS) for a relatively low price. 

Smoking the sheets produces Ribbed Smoke Sheet grades of rubber, which sell for considerably more money than unsmoked sheets

Our Product Features

It is quicker than sun-drying and does not cause oxidation by ultraviolet radiation. Inside the smoke house, there is only limited supply of air and it is mostly filled with smoke and carbon dioxide. Hence chances for oxidation of rubber are very limited, provided the temperature is within limits. Also, the creosotic i.e. materials present in smoke, get deposited on the surface of the sheets thereby preventing mould growth on sheets
