Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) is a highly versatile synthetic organic compound. Additives, such as plasticizers and colorants, make the options for PVC virtually limitless. PVC is also widely available, making it an economic choice for conveyor belting.
The additives that make PVC food grade increase the resilience against fats, oils and some cleaning agents. As a thermoplastic material, PVC is easily fabricated for complete customization. These are just a few reasons why PVC belts can be a great solution from delicate operations such as fruit handling to demanding applications like hemp processing or recycling.
