Fresh Latex collected from rubber plantation contains only 30 to 40 % dry rubber content, balance being mainly water. Fresh latex, because of the high water content and presence of non rubber solids, it is susceptible to bacterial attack and hence a perishable material.

Different types of latex concentrates with a dry rubber content of up to 60 % are produced either by centrifuging or creaming
