Update 16 July 1998

European Rubber Journal is produced for those involved in the European rubber industries. The magazine is primarily directed at senior management within the rubber industry whose activities include the manufacture of tyres, mechanical and industrial goods, hose and belting, footwear, and supply of chemicals, synthetic and natural rubber, plus the manufacture of rubber processing machinery. The readers include managers and executives in purchasing, corporate management, technical, production R&D, plant management, personnel, and sales and marketing.

Each issue carries a focus feature alongside a broad range of news and feature articles covering every aspect of the industry.

In addition to conventional display and classified advertising, we will shortly be launching a dedicated "Advertising Product Showcase" in which you will be able to target specific new products and services.
