Why Choose White PU Conveyor Belt For Food Industry
Date：2025-07-31 17:02:37 Browse :Food safety is a highly publicized topic. Many foods require conveyor belts for processing and transportation. The food industry places high demands on conveyor belts, requiring them to meet food safety and hygiene standards. These belts must be oil-resistant, non-toxic, odorless, easy to clean, have a smooth surface, and withstand direct food contact without sticking or discoloring.
To meet these requirements, PU conveyor belts are the preferred choice in the food industry for the following reasons:
1. PU conveyor belts are made of polyurethane (PU)—a transparent, clean, non-toxic, and odorless material suitable for direct food contact.
2. PU conveyor belts are oil-resistant, water-resistant, and cut-resistant. They are thin, tough, and highly resistant to stretching.
3. They are FDA-certified for food grade applications.
4. PU conveyor belts are cuttable and, once they reach a certain thickness, can be cut with a cutter, allowing them to be cut repeatedly.
PU conveyor belts are available in a variety of colors, including white, blue, and yellow. Since food conveyor belts must be colorfast, white is generally used unless otherwise specified. We also recommend using white conveyor belts for the food industry. This allows for a clearer view of belt cleanliness, allowing for immediate cleaning of any dirt. This ensures that a clean conveyor belt is maintained at all times, a commitment to hygiene and safety.
Of course, for some products, using white pu conveyor belts may be difficult to clean over time. In this case, blue food conveyor belts are easier to clean and are mildew-resistant and antibacterial. Therefore, using white conveyor belts is not a must in the food industry; it depends on the product requirements and the conveying requirements. The choice depends on your specific needs.
