EVALUATING OPTIONS
The two traditional solutions for food processor’s conveying needs: fabric based PVC / PU belts and plastic modular belts.
FABRIC BELTS
Fabric based belts and their construction carry major threats to modern food production facilities. The fabric layers are prone to contamination from blood and other liquids during product processing, which provide a perfect breeding ground for bacteria.
MODULAR BELTS
Modular belts have eliminated the fabric layers and allow for no absorption of any liquids by the belt. However, the modular system, which entails many gaps, hinges, and dead spots, makes perfect cleaning impossible.
CHALLENGES FOR PROCESSING PLANTS
The high water consumption, the manpower involved in the sanitation process and the high costs for BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand) and COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) are the main challenges for processing plants.
THE SOLUTION
REOclean is an advanced homogeneous conveyor belt that solves these shortcomings. The unique belt design features tensile members, sealed by thermoplastic polyurethane based materials. REOclean is easy to clean, carries heavy loads without stretching and cuts down sanitation time and cost tremendously.
