Saving the planet – one belt at a time

Never before have environmental issues presented a greater challenge, nor held such a high profile. We all have a part to play in ensuring greater sustainability – and here is how we can help.

Manufacturing steel conveyor belts uses huge amounts of both energy and materials and so produces a massive carbon footprint. This increases dramatically if you import your steel belts – 100kg of CO2 is emitted into the atmosphere for every tonne of imported belt.
The amount of steel belting we use (and discard) represents the single biggest influence on the continuous process industry’s carbon footprint. As a consequence, it also represents the biggest opportunity where every user of steel belts can contribute to reducing that footprint.
A huge percentage of the conveyor belts which are scrapped and replaced are done so prematurely due to damage. Reducing this damage could have a huge impact on the environment, representing tonnes of steel belts that no longer need be manufactured, transported and installed each year.

This is where we come in. We offer a huge range of products and services to extend the life of your steel belts and reduce your company’s carbon footprint, including:

• Belt tracking tensioning systems
• Cleaning brushes
• Pneumatic scrapers
• Belt edge spring loaded diablos
• Return rollers and belt support rollers
• Graphite stations and cast belt supports
• Non-product side belt ploughs
• Replacement drums
• Servicing and maintenance.

And even better news? Our value for money products and services will protect your investment in steel belts, saving you up to £200,000 on the costs of purchasing and installing a new belt and preserving your annual production budget.
Every individual and company has a responsibility to do what they can to prevent damage being done to our environment. With our help, a more sustainable future is in your hands.
