Rubber Thread

Rubber Thread is an elastic thread considerable elasticity and high mechanical strength, both to traction and to breakage.

Among all the Latex Products, Natural Rubber Thread – with custom code 40.07.00.0000 and 40.07.00.0010 –is the noblest one. Rubber Thread is the one that depends more on the technology, the process and the methods used for its manufacture.

Rubber Thread

a Natural Product

Rubber Thread is a Natural product.

The main raw material is Natural Latex, which is harvested in the Rubber plantations, where rubber tree (scientifically called “Hevea Brasiliensis”) is grown. The scientific name of the rubber tree refers to Brazil and the Amazon forest.

As a consequence of the discovery of rubber vulcanization and its many applications, during the 19th century the commercial exploitation of rubber made the fortune of Manaus and Belem, Brazilian cities on the Amazon River.

The story then saw several attempts to grow the Rubber Tree outside Brazil until the success obtained in 1876 by the British botanist Henry Nicholas Ridley in the botanical gardens of Ceylon and Singapore, allowing the development of Rubber plantations among the territories of the British Empire.

The latex collected in the plantations – also called brute latex – is stored in liquid state and sent to a centrifugation process that allows obtaining the centrifuged latex, essential raw material for the production of different rubber latex articles such as, indeed, catheters, rubber thread, latex gloves, condoms, medical items…

Centrifuged latex used in the production of rubber thread must meet precise specifications, as the natural latex rubber thread is the most particular among all the latex products.

Uses of Natural Latex Rubber Thread

Round Section Natural Latex Rubber Thread is used for the production of multiple products according to its main characteristics such as diameter, color, elongation, mechanical strength and type of compound used for its manufacture.

The main sectors of use of Natural Latex Rubber Thread are Textile Industry, Automotive Industry, Orthopedic Industry, Medical Industry and Food Industry.

Several finished products contain Natural Latex Rubber Thread. Among the products containing Rubber Thread, we can find Medical Articles, Sanitary Articles, Sporting Goods, Elastic Bandages, Hosiery, Elastic Straps, Sofa Straps, Elastic Ropes, Elastic Cords, Bungee Jumping Cords, Rubber Elastic Yarns, Spiral Yarns, Covered Rubber (Mono and Double Covering), Underwear, Knitwear, Elastic Ribbons, Elastic Lace, Food Nets, Industrial Elastic Nets, Orthopedic Nets, and Elastic Fabrics.

How to produce

Round Section Natural Latex Rubber Thread

Rubber Thread is produced in suitable and dedicated production plants, where the main raw material – the centrifuged natural latex – is properly processed.

The production process applied together with the technology used and the type of machineries utilized in the production of rubber thread are the essential keys to obtain a Round Section Natural Rubber Thread that satisfies the specifications of the end customers and can meet the international standards.

A Long Experience and Expertise

of Our Company

Our company has a long experience in the design, construction, commissioning and start-up of both the Rubber Thread Production Plants and the Rubber Thread Extrusion Lines.

The Rubber Thread Plants realized and the Extrusion Lines started produce High Quality Rubber Thread – Export Oriented.

Every year more than 45,000 Equivalent Tons / Year of Rubber Thread are produced, using the Extrusion Lines and the Rubber Thread Plants with the Technology by Process (PE).

Rubber Thread: the Offered Products

We offer the Rubber Thread produced in the plants with the Technology by Process – the RT Plant by PE – which, in fact, use the production process, the machinery and production lines we entirely built in Italy.

The Rubber Thread produced in the Plants with the Technology by Process is produced in all the Counts requested by the market (from Count 20 up to Count 100), with different types of compounds (Low Module, Medium Module, High Module), in the different colors usually requested by the market (White, Super White, Gray, Black), in special colors requested by users.

Rubber Thread: Sales Capacity

The References of the Rubber thread Plants with the Technology by Process built over the years have a portfolio of 8 Plants and a number of Installed Lines higher than 18 lines.

Thanks to the long relationship and the excellent connection that has always linked us with the producers who have installed the Technology by Process, we can meet the potential requests coming from the consumers of Rubber Thread.

RUBBER THREAD

Markets and Types of Available Products

The particularity of the Process and of the Rubber Thread Plant with the Technology by Process allows the production of High Quality Rubber Thread and, especially, the Rubber Thread with High Module (HIGH MODULUS), the Rubber Thread for Food Use (FOOD GRADE) and the Special Products.

Commercial services for the supply of Rubber Thread focus on the sale and supply of:

  • Rubber Thread for Food Use,
  • Rubber Thread with High Module,
  • Special Products to be done in collaboration with Final consumers such as, for example, Fire Resistant Rubber Thread (FLAME RETARDANT)

NOTES and CLARIFICATIONS

Origin

The certain origin of the plant is not clear. His story is lost in the many stories and / or legends that accompanied the Spanish conquest of the new world.

The Name

The word “rubber” did not exist in Spanish.
The Spanish term “hule” to indicate the rubber was invented by Spanish conquerors, adapting to Spanish the name used by some natives when they played with rubber balls.
