Natural rubber price in USD per kilogram (IMF). Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia produce ~70% of global natural rubber. Despite synthetic alternatives, natural rubber remains irreplaceable in high-performance tires (airplane, truck, racing) due to heat resistance. EVs with heavier battery packs wear tires ~30% faster than ICE vehicles, creating a structural demand tailwind that the market has yet to fully price.
