Gas Malaysia Sdn Bhd - Total Energy Solutions for the 21st Century

RUBBER INDUSTRY

The manufacturing process for rubber products consists mainly of latex dipping, heating and drying.

Natural gas is the main energy source used for heating in the leaching process, which uses hot oil or steam. For drying and curing processes, natural gas powered infrared burners are used to enable direct heating.

Rubber end products include surgical and examination gloves, neurological catheters, fingerstalls and decorative balloons.

Drying & Curing

Direct heating produced from infrared burners or hot exhaust gases are used in this process to ensure better thermal efficiency. The heat from direct heating also immediately produces a uniform oven operating temperature. Moreover, the cleanliness of natural gas exhaust gases improves the quality of products.

Steam & Oil Heating

The high combustion ratio for natural gas eliminates the problem of soot formation on the heat transfer tubing thus increasing the thermal efficiency prolonging the equipment lifespan.
