So, how to correctly choose the conveyor belt material suitable for your industry and equipment?
If food is transported, such as candy, pasta, meat, seafood, baked goods, etc., the first choice is PU conveyor belt.
Reason:
1. The PU conveyor belt is made of polyurethane (polyurethane) as the surface, which is transparent, clean, non-toxic and odorless, and can be in direct contact with food.
2. PU conveyor belt has oil, water, and cutting resistance characteristics. The belt body is thin, tough, and resistant to tensile lifting.
3. Comply with FDA food grade certification
Polyurethane (PU) is a material that is soluble in nature and a green raw material. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) contains substances harmful to the human body. Therefore, if it is related to the food industry, it is best to choose PU conveyor belts from the perspective of food safety.
4. Considering durability, the PU conveyor belt can be cut and used with cutters after reaching a certain thickness and can be cut repeatedly.
PVC conveyor belts are mainly used for food packaging and transportation and non-food transportation. Its price is lower than that of PU conveyor belts, and its service life is generally shorter than that of polyurethane conveyor belts.
