Invitation to the IRC 2025

The International Rubber (IRC) 2025 will be held in Bangkok, Thailand from 1 to 3 December 2025. This is the first time that the IRC will be o rganised in Thailand.

The Conference provides a forum for sharing new developments in the science, technology and engineering of rubbers and rubber products, including the issues of health, safety and environment in connection with sustainability of the modern rubber industry.

The objectives are to encourage and promote international exchange, co-operation as well as involvement of the younger generation for sustainability of the rubber industry. An exhibition of rubbers, rubber chemicals, rubber products, laboratory equipment, technical services etc. will also be rganized at the IRC 2025.

A tour of natural rubber plantation and natural rubber processing factories as well as key cultural sites will be organized as well.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to Thailand and to your participation and support.
