Mesh belts
NK Technics have developed a unique pattern for good release and gentle grip of products conveyed.
Our belts will prove exceptionally efficient when handling Salad leaves where first pass is vital, coupled with proven dramatic reduction in water consumption during hygiene cleaning.
Construction
Our mesh conveyor belts are made from polyester fabric with monofilament warp and weft threads. The mesh spacing and the fabric's permeability can be changed by varying the number or diameter of these threads.
All materials are highly resistant to animal and plant fats/oils etc. and comply with the EU 1935/2004 and FDA (US Food and Drug Administration).
