As China's economy grows, market demand for natural rubber continues to be released. China has been the world's largest natural rubber consumer for many years, but China's domestic natural rubber production capacity can only meet less than half of the domestic market demand, and most natural rubber needs to rely on imports. The publisher expects that China's natural rubber imports are expected to continue to grow in 2023-2032.
