Open-Pit Mining Doesn't Wait for Replacements.

EP400–EP1600 heavy-duty bulk handling series

Crushing operations run 24/7. When a shredded belt stops the line, every idle hour is measured in tonnes lost and contracts missed. Our N17 heavy-abrasion compound and steel-cord reinforced variants are specified for primary crusher discharge, where impact forces peak and material temperatures spike.

FG-W and FG-B food-grade compound series

Food processing environments demand more than chemical resistance — they require absolute traceability, colour coding for contamination control, and surfaces that drain clean under high-pressure washdown. Our FG-W and FG-B compounds are formulated to FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 with no extractable plasticisers.

HR-series heat-resistant compound · rated to 400°F continuous

Cement clinker exits the kiln at temperatures that destroy standard belts in hours. Our HR compound integrates heat-stabilised polymer matrices with a woven breaker layer designed to prevent delamination under sustained thermal cycling. Specified for cooler conveyor discharge, kiln inlet, and clinker transport to storage silos.
