We source raw materials globally. It includes the United States, Europe, and Asia.
We offer both jointed and seamless (no joint) types. Antistatic Fusing Belts are used in Flatbed laminator systems as double belt presses with both inline heating and cooling sections. The materials that they are used for laminated are often covered with a heat-activated adhesive, therefore, the PTFE belt has non-stick properties. more info
Most of our belts are made from PTFE which stands for Polytetrafluoroethylene. Also commonly referred to as Teflon which is a trade name of Du Pont.
PTFE coated glass cloth belts are the most common type Conveyor Belts In The Food Industry. We have a huge range of belts for this industry. Our Sales team would be happy to advise the right product for your application
