Japan's natural rubber imports are estimated at 46,383 metric tons in September, up from 43,149 tons in the previous month, according to data issued by the Rubber Trade Association of Japan Friday.
The association didn't give any reason for the rise in imports but traders said the sharp fall in inventories in the last few months may have led to increased buying.
The rise in imports was mainly due to higher purchases of the RSS grade, which rose to 10,823 tons from 6,828 tons in August. Most of the RSS grade imports were from Thailand.
A bulk of the imports in September comprised the TSR grade at 33,133 tons, including 23,036 tons from Indonesia, but little changed from August.
Natural rubber imports in the January-September period were estimated at 433,035 tons.
