We source natural rubber cup lumps and process it into technically specified rubber in Côte d’Ivoire.

Côte d’Ivoire is one of the largest exporters of natural rubber globally and our team sources naturally coagulated cup lump rubber from over 15,000 smallholder farmers. We then process this into Technically Specified Rubber (TSR) and export to destinations in Europe, Americas, and Asia.

Committed to Growing Responsibly

As part of our commitment to support farmer livelihoods, we map our smallholders’ land. We overlay agri information such as the number of trees and their age, with social factors like the number of children and access to clean water, healthcare, and education. Information is collated on our own technology platform which helps with traceability to the sourcing region.

We help farmers to improve yields, minimise environmental impact and improve livelihoods through tailored plans. For our businesses and customers, we can mitigate risks, estimate future production, and predict the properties of the harvested latex.

Gouassou Recognition Programme

There are two financial pinch points for rubber farmers – April, when they need fresh tools for tapping and September, when fees and books are required for the new school term. The “Gouassou” programme – which translates to ‘bonus’ – supports farmers with materials such as tapping tools and school kits. Previous awards have included trucks, motorbikes, tricycles and safety boots.
