IRSG to replace 'International Rubber Digest' with new publication

WEMBLEY, England (July 3)—The International Rubber Study Group will cease publication of its monthly "International Rubber Digest" this month, replacing it with a new, monthly "Rubber Industry Report," the group said. The "Rubber Industry Report" will be an extended version of the Elastomer Industry Report, which has appeared in the outgoing digest. The new, more comprehensive publication will monitor all aspects of the rubber industry, IRSG said, providing forecasts, global pricing trends and influences, sector-specific and end-user news and macroeconomic analyses. A related publication, the IRSG's "Rubber Statistical Bulletin," will continue to be available with content largely unchanged, the group said.
