SUSTAINABILITY

Communities

Yulex maintains an unwavering commitment toward socially responsible practices in the production of our products.

The market demand for natural rubber has led to expansion of rubber tree plantations and a driver of deforestation, carbon emissions and biodiversity loss as well, as well as human labor rights abuses. FSC® certification ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social and economic benefits.

Yulex plantation partners are FSC®-certified and ensure and monitor for abolition of child or forced compulsory labor, discrimination and right to collective bargaining. Our products are made of rubber from well-managed FSC®-certified forests that also provide schools location with computer labs, medical and dental care, nutritional guidance career counseling, and placement for plantation workers outside the sector.
