FAIR RUBBER – MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE
Fair Rubber e.V. is committed to fair trade and the sustainable production of natural rubber.
Its key tool is the Fair Rubber seal, awarded to products that meet Fair Rubber’s standards.
The association sets a cultivation standard to promote greater sustainability in rubber farming and supports smallholders and tappers by paying a premium of €0.50 per kilo of dry rubber.
The Fair Rubber premium benefits the people who tap or grow the raw material and who meet the Fair Rubber standards. They decide for themselves how to use the funds – to improve living and working conditions and adopt more sustainable farming methods.
The association brings together companies that use rubber, civil society organisations (NGOs) and individuals who wish to drive improvements in the rubber sector.
