Atlanta, Georgia -- Vystar Corp. has signed an agreement with Centrotrade Minerals and Metals, Inc. and Centrotrade Deutschland, GmbH to distribute Vytex Natural Rubber Latex (NRL), worldwide. Vytex said its products virtually eliminate allergy-causing proteins found in latex. It can be used as a replacement for over 40,000 products that contain latex.
Centrotrade will market and sell Vytex NRL to manufacturers worldwide using its distribution network.
Vystar said it expects the industry to introduce the first products containing Vytex NRL this spring including condoms, exam gloves, and cold seal adhesives used in food packaging, with others to follow later in the year.
