La NANHAI améliore ses matériaux en caoutchouc pour répondre aux normes de l'EUDR

The European market is entering a new era of stricter environmental regulations. With the introduction of the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), products that rely on natural rubber must now meet higher sustainability and traceability standards.

NANHAÏ has taken proactive steps to adapt to these changes. We have upgraded our rubber materials et built a fully traceable supply chain to ensure full compliance with the EUDR. By doing so, NANHAI strengthens its competitive edge and provides customers with reliable, eco-friendly, and regulation-ready products.

What Is EUDR and Why Does It Matter?

Le EU Deforestation Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2023/1115) came into effect in 2023 and will be fully enforced in 2025. Its goal is simple but ambitious:
to prevent products linked to illegal deforestation or forest degradation from entering the European market.

For industries that rely on natural rubber — including défenses marines, airbags de lancement de navires, tires, and other rubber-based components — the EUDR introduces three key requirements:

• Deforestation-free sourcing: All natural rubber must come from legal and sustainable plantations.
• Full traceability: Companies must collect and submit the exact geographical coordinates of the production sites.
• Due Diligence Statement (DDS): Businesses must provide a detailed declaration proving that their products comply with EUDR standards.

Put simply, products that fail to meet these requirements will face restricted access to the EU market.

NANHAI’s Proactive Response

At NANHAI, we understand how vital the European market is for our global customers. Instead of waiting for the regulation to take full effect, we launched a comprehensive rubber material upgrade program as soon as the EUDR was announced.

Our actions focus on three major areas:

1. Building a Traceable Supply Chain

• Partnered with certified, EUDR-compliant rubber suppliers.
• Collected exact GPS coordinates for all rubber plantations involved.
• Adopted a digital tracking system to ensure every batch of raw material is fully traceable from plantation to production.

2. Optimizing Rubber Material Formulations

• Selected deforestation-free natural rubber verified by independent authorities.
• Improved material formulas to enhance durability, weather resistance, and aging performance.
• Balanced sustainability and product performance, so customers enjoy eco-friendly solutions without compromising quality.

3. Achieving Third-Party EUDR Certification
