Rubber prices on March 27th recorded an upward trend on Asian exchanges, while the domestic market continued to remain stable, with no significant fluctuations compared to previous sessions.
World Rubber Prices
In Japan, on the Tocom exchange, RSS3 rubber prices increased across most maturities. The March 2026 contract reached 361 JPY/kg, up 3.59%; the April contract was at 360.5 JPY/kg, up 0.78%; and maturities from May to July fluctuated between 365 and 370.9 JPY/kg, up from 0.5% to 1.62%.
On the SHFE (Shanghai) exchange, natural rubber prices rose slightly. Futures contracts from April to August 2026 fluctuated between 16,410 and 16,505 CNY/tonne, with increases ranging from 0.18% to 0.64%.
Meanwhile, on the SGX (Singapore) exchange, TSR20 rubber prices fluctuated in opposite directions. The April 2026 contract reached 197.8 cents/kg, up 0.51%, while contracts from May to August saw slight decreases of 0.24% to 0.40%.
In the physical market, the price of Thai export-standard smoked sheet rubber (RSS3) increased by 1.28%, while block rubber prices rose by 2.19%.
The continued high price of synthetic rubber continues to support natural rubber, encouraging producers to switch to natural raw materials to optimize costs. Notably, butadiene rubber prices on the SHFE this week surpassed natural rubber prices for the first time since August 2024, according to aggregated data from LSEG.
Domestic Rubber Prices
In the domestic market, rubber latex purchase prices at many businesses remain stable. Specifically, Ba Ria Rubber Company reports purchase prices for liquid latex at 420 VND/TSC/kg (applicable to TSC from 25 to under 30); DRC coagulated latex (35-44%) at 14,600 VND/kg, and raw latex at 18,100 VND/kg.
MangYang Company purchases liquid latex at 458-463 VND/TSC (Type 2 - Type 1), and mixed coagulated latex at approximately 404-459 VND/DRC (Type 2 - Type 1).
Phu Rieng Company offers stable purchase prices for mixed latex at 390 VND/DRC and liquid latex at 420 VND/TSC.
Binh Long Company offers stable purchase prices for rubber at the factory at 432 VND/TSC/kg; purchase prices at the production team at 422 VND/TSC/kg; and stable prices for mixed latex (DRC 60%) at 14,000 VND/kg.
In the short term, domestic rubber prices are likely to continue to remain stable, following the market's trend of stability. Meanwhile, although the global market shows signs of recovery, it still lacks sufficient momentum, meaning any upward trend will be slow and uneven across regions.
