  • In this video we take you on an epic journey to learn how rubber is harvested and value-added in Sri Lanka to meet the worlds increasing demand for rubber products.
    From seedling to tapping to create the final product in this video we partnered with Dipped Products PLC to show you how this industry has evolved over the past century in Sri Lanka.
    If you enjoyed this video make sure to check out the rest of our industries series for more inspirational stories of Sri Lankan export industries.
    Special thanks to our partners DPL for helping us make this video

      Welcome to Sri Lanka. I used to know a girl from Zurich. Her parents welcomed my dad and me to Zurich airport for a drink and a snack. Her father was a Swissair pilot so we did not need to go through immigration. I hope you are able to fulfill your wish

    We at DPL couldn't agree more, Shenelle! "The milk that runs the world" perfectly captures the essence of Sri Lankan latex!
    It's been an honor partnering with you to showcase this incredible journey, from the "golden milk" to the innovative solutions used globally. We're thrilled for the world to discover this story.

    Hello Shenelle, if you remember I visited Sri Lanka and made some vlogs and I am still posting 1 every week.
    I would like to give lots of Love to all the lovely people from Sri Lanka, who showered love and helped us on our visit and vlogs, FYI, I got more comments from Srilankans than Indian.

    I grew up in the wilderness of rubber trees. We had a small plantation of 0.25 acres of rubber. Used to love those trees. Their leaves would sway in the cool wind with a subtle hum. We used rubber branches for firewood. Rubber sap was pure white and the smell I used to love. We used rubber sap as gum as well. In the dry season in February, rubber trees shed their leaves, so we did not tap milk. During the period me and my friends used to play hide and seek among tall hefty rubber trees. The trees treated the soil so well that, dug up well water from the area was so pure and tasty. How I missed my golden childhood....

      So lovely to hear. part of the reason we create the stories we do is to remind people of how beautiful life in Sri Lanka really is. So much of the country still does have this way of living.

    Very professional & educative journey through the world's largest glove manufacturer ( if I am right ) which I have been following for many years. Since a few years back I have been picking up DPL Micro Mate Gloves & using them at my home (Australia) which is a good quality glove, a few days ago I wondered if these gloves had an inner protective material that could provide warmer comfort to hands would be an ideal glove to market as a ' Protection from Cold Weather' which Australia is experiencing at present. Since 'Micro Mate' is specially made
    for handling dishes from a Microwave or other hot items in the kitchen
    I would like to point out as follows.
    1) The Inner protective material used in 'Micromate Glove' isn't good enough to provide warmth to the hands during cold weather.
    2) The outer area of the (Palm) is too smooth ( slippery ) to handle glass or ceramic dishes. If the surface finish of the palm had been
    made ' Coarse ' finish would have been ideal for other kitchen work.
    Eg. Washing, Moving Dishes & other.
    3) In simple terms ' One Glove for Kitchen ' or ' Kitchen Mate".
    4) I am sure this kind of glove can be promoted in other countries that are facing more severe winter conditions.
    I am ready to help if a sample of the inner material which I suggest is required.
    Also can be part of the DPL promotional requirement from my end. In case a DPL staff member wants to get in touch with me by email.
    summa.dharmasena@gmail.com.
    I believe there's an appointed agent based in Melbourne for DPL products? I could not find DPL Electrician Gloves at any 'Safety Products Outlets".
