Guayule - A New Source for Natural Rubber

 

Guayule: A New Source for Natural Rubber

Bridgestone is leading the charge for alternative and renewable sources for natural rubber. We’re currently exploring uses for the guayule shrub, which has qualities almost identical to those of natural rubber, making it a potentially valuable source for tyre-grade rubber in commercial applications. Through this innovative project and others like it, we’re moving closer to achieving our long-term vision of manufacturing products from raw materials that are fully renewable and sustainable by 2050.
