Throughout our certified raw material supply chain, we make responsible choices for both people and planet, helping you create responsible products. Here’s how we do it.
We use only deforestation-free raw materials. Our partner plantations are certified by internationally recognized forest certification programs, PEFC and FSC, minimizing environmental impact through responsible forest management.
With our Equitable Ag program in Thailand, we share over 50% of our profits from raw materials sales with the rubber smallholders.
Our raw material partners worldwide are compliant with the European Deforestation Regulation or EUDR and can provide such documentation at point of purchase. So, when you purchase Yulex Products, you will be able to know the geo-coordinates and origins of your rubber products and that it does not come from deforested regions.
All Yulex Products are FROM THE TREE and compliant with the new European Union Regulation on Deforestation-Free Products upon request. Raw materials from renewable rubber trees reduce our reliance on non-renewable energy sources like oil. Rubber trees also sequester (use) CO2 and help remove GHG from the atmosphere.
Our proprietary purification process removes up to 99% of impurities including those known to cause Type 1 latex allergies.
YULEX PURE is used to make our YULASTIC filaments.
YULEX PURE is certified & compliant with the EU Deforestation-Free Products regulation.
Our raw material partners are PEFC and/or FSC-certified and our YULEX foam & YULASTIC filament producers only use certified raw materials such as YULEX PRIME or YULEX PURE latex. We perform internal audits and visit our authorized manufacturing networks at least once a year. Our foam and filament suppliers are Oeko-Tex certified.
We work with rubber smallholder farmers all the way to brands and their nominated Tier 1 producers- working closely to bring value to each supplier & replace synthetic foams and filaments for Yulex Products.
Yulex natural rubber raw materials are from renewable rubber trees & biodegradable.
