Vishnu Bhimrajka, Chief Convener of IRE 2024, said, “We are well aware that rubber, as an essential component in most sectors, has immense growth potential in India. Keeping this in mind, a large-scale event as this will present the perfect opportunity to explore new innovations, products, and technologies that can contribute to the growth of this industry.”
Ramesh Kejriwal, President of AIRIA and Co-Convener of IRE 2024, said, “Like every year, this time too, we are expecting participation from some of the biggest rubber traders from across Asia. The newer entrants can leverage this opportunity to expand their network, market their brand, and exchange ideas with the established players. Ultimately, facilitating collaboration between entities and paving the way for collective action to achieve ambitious objectives is what IRE aims to do.”
The other purpose of the expo will be to discuss different government policies regarding the rubber sector and showcase new products, programs, and technology to the right audience. It will also provide a chance to network with industry leaders, prospective partners, key decision makers, and current clients, as well as attend seminars, conferences, and workshops held by the best minds in the business.
The rubber industry, which has a turnover of approximately Rs12,000 crore, is poised to grow rapidly due to its highly diversified application in sectors such as Automobile, Railways, Defense, Energy & Infrastructure, Mining, Transport, Agriculture & Food Products, Textiles, Paper & Printing, Construction, Machinery & Equipment, and Healthcare.
