The global Buna-N Rubber market continues to demonstrate steady growth, with its valuation reaching US$ 1.2 billion in 2024. According to latest industry analysis, the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.9%, reaching approximately US$ 1.6 billion by 2030. This growth is primarily driven by increasing demand from oil & gas, automotive, and medical industries where Buna-N’s excellent resistance to oils, fuels, and chemicals makes it indispensable.
Buna-N Rubber (also known as Nitrile Rubber or NBR) has become a critical material across multiple industries due to its superior mechanical properties and chemical resistance. Its ability to maintain flexibility across a wide temperature range (-40°C to +108°C) while resisting petroleum-based oils and fuels has made it the material of choice for seals, gaskets, hoses, and other critical components.
