What RSS 1 Stands For
Ribbed: The rubber sheets are pressed into a ribbed (grooved) form, which improves drying efficiency and prevents the sheets from sticking together.
Smoked: The sheets are dried in traditional smokehouses, a process that helps preserve the rubber, prevents mold, and gives the sheets their distinctive brownish color.
Sheet: The final product is shaped into flat sheets, making it easier to grade, package, and transport.
Grade 1: This designation represents the highest visual quality in the RSS family, with the fewest imperfections such as oxidized spots, air bubbles, or foreign matter.
Key Characteristics of RSS 1

Durability and Performance
It offers high tensile strength, elasticity, and resistance to wear and tear, ensuring long-lasting performance even in heavy-duty applications.
Uniform Appearance
The sheets are light-colored, evenly smoked, and structurally sound, reflecting superior processing and consistent quality.
