How are rubber buttons made?

Rubber buttons are typically made through a process called molding. First, raw rubber is mixed with additives to enhance its properties, then the mixture is heated and placed into a mold that shapes the buttons. Once the rubber cools and solidifies, the buttons are removed from the mold, trimmed if necessary, and may undergo additional finishing processes like printing or coating. Finally, the buttons are inspected for quality before being packaged for distribution.
