Synthetic Belts
Our comprehensive range of Synthetic Belts are able to fulfil the application needs for light to heavy processing and conveying applications.
Synthetic conveyor belts are made of fabrics with a coating on the top and/or bottom side. A belt consists of one or more fabric plies to give certain features such as strength, stability and impact resistance.
Coating Materials
The coatings used on Synthetic Belts are called polymers and can be made of various materials which have influence on the suitability of the belt in a certain application.
Polymers can be separated into two different groups: thermoplastic or thermoset.
Our Synthetic Belts are developed and produced in various locations around the world using the most modern techniques, based on our expert knowledge of the various application environments.

Different Features
Synthetic Belts are produced using different materials, thicknesses, colours etc. Therefore each belt has different features such as high grip, non-fray or wear-resistance for example.
Indications of Use
There are more usages for Synthetic Belts besides the normal A-to-B (horizontal) conveying of goods, where a specific belt is needed to get the job done.
Some examples:
- Curved conveying
- Troughed conveyors
- Inclined or declined conveying
Fabrication & Accessories - Synthetic Belts
Plain belt material is fabricated to customise the belt to your specifications, for example, cutting to the right length and width.
An important fabrication job is making the belt endless. Belts can be made endless by means of various splicing methods.
