Storage & Handling

Storage and Handling

• Temperatures greater than 30 °C and exposure to sunlight, results in activation of the rot-causing bacteria.
• Avoid any fire exposition as natural rubber is readily combustible due to its high hydrocarbon content.
• Rubber should be stowed in such way as to avoid the risk of crushing.
