The proprietary formula of Linatex^® Premium Rubber includes a unique liquid compounding phase which maintains the natural state and characteristics of the 95% natural rubber product. The formula has remained unchanged since it was developed and patented in 1923 by Bernard Wilkinson. To ensure a consistent high-quality product, Linatex^® Premium Rubber routinely undergoes rigorous testing throughout the entire manufacturing and delivery process.

Linatex^® Premium Rubber is the most sustainably manufactured rubber on the market. The natural and renewable resource (pure latex is 100% sap of the rubber tree) is complemented by sustainable processes, minimal waste and a renewable solar energy system at the site.

Stephen Frendt, Managing Director Weir Minerals Malaysia: “Linatex rubber is a very sustainable product. Firstly, it's a very natural product based on 95% natural rubber latex. Secondly, the process in which it is manufactured is very sustainable: very little effluent, very little waste. More broadly across the site, we have implemented a range of sustainability initiatives such as solar panels, rainwater harvesting and a rubber recycling program.”

Charlie Stone, VP Sales and Business Development: "We are thrilled to celebrate a century of delivering leading value, performance, and sustainability benefits to our customers around the world. Linatex premium rubber is unparalleled in the industry and we look forward to another successful 100 years and more.”
