PU & PVC Conveyor Belts

Conveyor belts are the backbone of industrial material handling systems, and among the most commonly used types are PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) and PU (Polyurethane) conveyor belts. These belts play a crucial role in ensuring seamless, safe, and efficient movement of goods across various sectors, from food processing to pharmaceuticals and logistics.

​

1. Durability and Strength

Both PVC and PU belts are known for their high tensile strength and durability. They can handle a wide range of loads, from lightweight packaging materials to heavy industrial components, ensuring long-term performance with minimal wear and tear.

  • PVC Belts: Best suited for medium-duty applications.

  • PU Belts: Ideal for more demanding conditions with higher abrasion and cut resistance.

2. Hygiene and Safety

In industries like food processing and pharmaceuticals, hygiene is non-negotiable. PU conveyor belts are especially valued for their excellent resistance to oil, grease, and chemicals, and for being FDA-compliant, making them perfect for environments requiring the highest standards of cleanliness.

  • PU Belts: Preferred in food and medical industries due to superior hygienic properties.

  • PVC Belts: Also hygienic, but more suitable for dry food handling and packaging.

3. Flexibility and Customization

Both PVC and PU belts offer versatility in design and application. They are available in various thicknesses, colors, textures, and surface patterns to match specific conveyor requirements.

  • PVC: Offers good flexibility and cost-efficiency for general conveying.

  • PU: More elastic and adaptable to curves, ensuring smooth operation even in compact layouts.

4. Cost-Effectiveness

PVC belts are relatively more economical, making them an ideal choice for general-purpose applications. PU belts, while slightly more expensive, provide better longevity and performance in critical operations, reducing maintenance and downtime costs in the long run.

5. Resistance to Environmental Factors

Both types of belts offer resistance to moisture, chemicals, and temperature variations, but PU belts tend to outperform PVC in harsh and high-temperature environments.

  • PU: Superior in cold and hot temperature ranges.

  • PVC: Adequate for moderate conditions and dry environments.
