FlexiBrella is an innovative product that helps rubber tappers and rubber plantation owners to overcome their all-time problem of not being able to tap the trees during the rainy season.

FlexiBrella is a tree umbrella that provide full protection for the rubber tree trunk from rain and enable the rubber tappers to tap the trees during rainy season. This will help them to have consistent income even during the rainy season, without compromising the quality of the sap. This product is novel, can be produced at low cost and highly beneficial. It has the potential to be commercialised because rubber is still an important commodity in Malaysia. This innovation can help maintain continuous supply of high quality rubber sap and this will contribute towards the country's GDP.
