The first Rubber Technology Laboratory in our country for the purpose of teaching and research was established in 1955 in the Department of Applied Chemistry in IIT, Kharagpur under the collaborative program with the British Government (the Colombo Plan), the USA Government (Technical Collaboration Mission) and Ministry of Education, Government of India. The independent Rubber Technology Centre was established in 1981. The Centre acquired advanced processing testing and characterization equipment from Indo-British, IndoFrench Collaborative Programs and also a large number of research projects from government organization and industries. During last three decades since its inception this Centre has done pioneering work in research and education in rubber and polymer science and technology. In 2014 it was awarded as the best Institute for education and research in Rubber Science and Technology by the 'Rubber Asia' magazine.
