EUDR Compliance for Rubber Importers, Including UK Forest-Risk Preparedness
Natural rubber used in tyres and industrial rubber goods is a named EUDR commodity group, and the UK's own proposed forest-risk commodity regime (expected 2027) is set to cover similar ground. AVN Earth builds plot-level evidence for rubber plantations so UK and EU importers alike can show a deforestation-free chain of custody, well before the UK regime is confirmed in law.

What this covers
Why rubber needs plot-level evidence
Rubber is disproportionately traded through smallholder tapping rather than large estates in several origin countries, which means the same cooperative-aggregation traceability gap seen in cocoa applies here too.
How AVN Earth verifies your rubber supply chain
For rubber, this means mapping each tapping plot individually and verifying it before latex is pooled with other smallholders' output at a collection point.
This runs through the same four steps we use for every commodity: a field technician maps and GPS-records the plot, we verify it against EU deforestation baselines, every record lands in your AVN Earth dashboard, and you generate a compliant Due Diligence Statement in a few clicks — ready to file with TRACES NT or your own filing system. The UK's proposed forest-risk commodity regime (expected 2027) is set to require broadly the same evidence, so this work isn't wasted if you also trade into the UK.
