Belts with sealed edges provide additional safety and protection, especially for hygiene purposes in food applications. The sealed borders prevent oils and moistures from penetrating the fabric layer of the conveyor belts, thus avoiding microbial growth and ply separation. They also prevent fabric fiber from sticking out from the belt edges and contaminating the conveyed…
When selecting a belt for an application, it is not only important to know the breaking load of the belt or the maximum force that it can withstand, but it is also key to know how much it stretches before breaking. For optimal performance, a belt has to be well-tensioned to stay centered and stable…
A belt´s resistance to abrasion depends on its covers and the abrasive nature of the conveyed object, the cleaning system, brushes or scrapers, sidewalls of the conveyor etc. To compare the abrasion resistant property between different belts, in the Esbelt laboratory, we rely on a TABER abrasion tester to determine the most suitable belt for…
Frayless conveyor belts Esbelt Frayless (FL) belts are made with special fabrics that minimize belt fraying. This reduces the risk of contamination by fibers, that may detach from the fabrics due to lateral friction of the belt against the conveyor and mix with the conveyed product. Thanks to this frayless feature, in some cases, it…

Knife-edge Belt Applications TPU and TPE conveyor belts with high longitudinal flexibility, ideal for knife-edge applications for a smooth transfer from one conveyor to the other. Laterally rigid and suitable for small radius of 3mm. FDA & EU10/2011 food quality with excellent resistance to animal and vegetable oils and fats. Shiny, matt, patterned and textured…
Wick Resistant Conveyor Belts Wicking occurs when a fabric soaks up oils and fluids quickly like the wick of an oil lamp. Esbelt´s wick resistant conveyor belts prevent the absorption of water and oils, enhancing the hygiene in food applications. Even though the bottom cover fabric is not covered by thermoplastic, its wick resistant property protects…
Oil resistant The thermoplastic covers of most of our conveyor belts are designed to perform favorably when in contact with certain oils or greases. The oil resistant property prevents the belt covers from degrading prematurely and allows the belts to perform at their optimum efficiency. Our oil resistant belts are designed according to the applications…
Cut resistant Our cut resistant belts are made of topcover thermoplastics formulated to withstand repeated cuts from sharp objects, like glass and metal parts. Suitable for stamping lines, recycling lines, glass and stone polishing lines, poultry and meat cutting lines. Belts with this property include: PVC belts – BREDA 22CF, BREDA 30CF, KERAM 40RF and…
Anti-Hydrolysis Hydrolysis is understood as the breaking down of a component upon reacting with water, vapour or humidity. Among the different thermoplastics, PVC is relatively more resistant to water and performs well in applications where water is present. Although Polyurethane is an excellent product against animal fats and vegetable oils, it tends to degrade…
