Are the products that this consultant will work on already commercialized, being modified for rubber glove applications, or still under development?
Dimethyl silicone oil emulsion, hydroxyl silicone oil emulsion and high-molecular-weight silicone products are all mature commercialized silicone products of our company, not newly developed items dedicated to the rubber glove industry. Currently, the specific application methods and scenario compatibility of these products in the rubber glove field have not been fully confirmed. They are now in the expansion and validation phase for rubber glove applications, and the consultant will be needed to support the evaluation and optimization of practical application solutions.
Is Ruijiang currently at the product development, market validation, customer trial, or commercial launch stage for the rubber glove market in Malaysia and Thailand? Is the consultant expected to provide specific formulations, recommended dosage ranges, and process parameters, or mainly review and advise on trials conducted by the China-based team?
Our company is currently in the initial phase of market entry and product application validation in the Malaysian and Thai rubber glove markets, and has not yet entered large-scale customer trials or formal commercial rollout. Regarding the consultant’s responsibilities: the role is not limited to reviewing trials completed by the China-based team. The consultant is expected to provide specific application formulas, dosage recommendations and process suggestions, and conduct application evaluation and product positioning for our products in rubber glove scenarios. In addition, we expect the consultant to leverage local industry connections to assist with customer development and business coordination.
Could you also share which of Ruijiang’s products are currently being evaluated for these applications, such as silicone emulsions, release agents, hand-feel agents, anti-adhesive agents, or other auxiliaries? It would also be helpful to understand which specific manufacturing stages or technical issues these products are intended to address, such as glove stripping, surface tackiness, hand feel, donning performance, or surface treatment ?
Key products under evaluation: dimethyl silicone oil emulsion, hydroxyl silicone oil emulsion, and high-molecular-weight silicone products (which can serve as release agents, hand-feel agents and other related auxiliaries). Targeted technical issues in production: the products mainly aim to optimize demolding performance and improve mirror stain issues in rubber glove manufacturing. Meanwhile, we will also explore the compatibility and application value of these products in more production procedures.
Could you please clarify which specific rubber glove applications Ruijiang is currently targeting in Malaysia and Thailand? For example, is the company focusing on natural rubber latex gloves, nitrile gloves, neoprene gloves, or other types of gloves?
At this stage, we have not set restrictions on specific glove categories. All types of rubber gloves, such as natural rubber latex and nitrile gloves, fall within our target scope. We will narrow down the focus to specific categories later based on application validation results and market feedback.
Will the compensation be offered as a fixed monthly or weekly retainer, or will it be calculated based on a daily or hourly rate? If it is a fixed retainer, what level of time commitment, number of consultation hours, or deliverables would be expected each week/month? Could you also confirm the payment terms, including the payment frequency, payment method, and currency?
The compensation will be a fixed monthly retainer. There are no mandatory requirements on working hours or deliverable volume; we only expect timely responses to communications. Payment will be settled at the end of each month, in US dollars.
Is Ruijiang looking to introduce some of its existing silicone emulsions, release agents, and related additives into the rubber glove manufacturing market in Malaysia and Thailand? My understanding is that the China-based team will be responsible for product development, R&D, and commercial activities, while the this technical support consultant will provide industry-specific application know-how, formulation knowledge, testing methods, and local market intelligence. Could you please confirm whether this understanding is correct?
Our China-based team takes charge of the R&D and manufacturing of the silicone products themselves, with the core objective of launching our existing mature products into the rubber glove markets of Malaysia and Thailand. Beyond providing local application technical expertise and implementation solutions, we also expect the consultant to leverage their industry network to support local customer acquisition and business development, to jointly drive market breakthroughs.
