- df 1g 1€ Je 1 [C- TT |e a Rubber goods are made in some 20 factories, but the growth of the industry, particularly in the ‘tyre branch, is due mainly to the efforts of one firm—Englebert of Liége. 114. The imports and exports of rubber manufactures into and from Belgium in 1926, 1927 and 1928 are summarised below; further details of the exports in 1928 are given in Appendix IV, page 102.

Exports more than doubled in value in 1928 compared with 1926; in. imports little change has occurred in 1926, 1927 and 19928. Tyres form the greater part of the exports, being 83.6 per cent. of the total in 1926 and 86.9 per cent. in 1928. The chief markets for tyres in 1928 were Germany (£311,000), Netherlands (£270,000), France £256,000) and Great Britain (£108,000), the first three increasing greatly in importance compared with 1927. Imported tyres in 1928 came chiefly from France (£183,800), United States (£128,400), Italy (£98,540) and the United Kingdom £3,440). Mechanical goods are another growing export, chiefly to France and the Netherlands, but imports are also increasing; half the imports in 1928 came from the United States and about a quarter trom France. Exports of rubber footwear in 1928 were over B% times the value of the exports in 1926; about one-half went to the United Kingdom in 1928. Here again, imports are ‘larger than exports in value but, excluding goloshes (which formed one- sleventh of the value of exports in 1928), the weight of exports was much greater than the weight of imports.
