ANRPC releases Monthly NR Statistical Report, July 2025

I am pleased to present our analysis of the global natural rubber (NR) market for July 2025. This month, the natural rubber prices experienced a fluctuating trend due to several factors such as trade tariffs, geopolitical tensions, along with adverse weather conditions affecting production. After a period of low demand and favourable supply, concerns over supply disruptions led to increased purchasing activity. Here's a summary of the latest trends in the NR sector:

Recent updates from ANRPC member nations indicate that global natural rubber (NR) production is projected to rise modestly by 0.5% in 2025 compared to 2024. Concurrently, demand for natural rubber is expected to grow by 1.3% in 2025. This anticipated growth occurs amid increasing worries about a possible global economic slowdown, driven by the complexities of U.S. tariff policies and a forecasted decline in demand growth. 2025 is shaping up to be one of the slowest years for global economic expansion since the pandemic, largely due to the ripple effects of U.S. tariff hikes.
