MRC Europe office was set up in August 2007 and is located within the Tun Abdul Razak Research Centre, the UK-based research centre of the Malaysian Rubber Board.

MRC Europe office plays an important role to facilitate exports of Made in Malaysia rubber products into Europe. In carrying out this role, it will monitor developments and changes in policies and new regulations concerning the importation and use of rubber products in Europe; and promote Malaysian rubber products by disseminating information on health and safety factors related to the use of rubber gloves, both natural rubber and synthetic rubber in healthcare facilities, as well as information on other rubber products to consumers and buyers in Europe.

The Europe office also acts as a trade and investment route to the Malaysian rubber product manufacturing sector, in particular assisting European companies in outsourcing and forming joint ventures with Malaysian suppliers. In relation to this, the Europe office maintains close contact with Malaysian government agencies in Europe such as the Malaysian External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE) and the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA).
