For non-heavy-duty applications where corrosion resistance, light weight, and quiet operation are priorities, plastic mesh belts offer an excellent alternative to metal. Constructed from engineering plastics like polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), or acetal (POM), these belts are inherently resistant to a wide range of chemicals and moisture. They are non-marking, making them ideal for conveying finished goods or delicate surfaces. Their lightweight nature reduces the power required for driving the conveyor and makes them easier to handle during installation and maintenance. Common applications are found in light industry, including the bottling and packaging sector (for conveying PET bottles, cans, and cartons), the textile industry (for moving garments between processes), and the electronics industry (for PCB assembly lines). In a plant that produces plastic bottles, a polypropylene mesh belt is used to carry the bottles from the molding machine to the labeling and packing stations. The belt is resistant to any water spills, is easy to clean, and will not scratch or damage the plastic containers. Plastic belts are also available in food-grade versions for applications in food processing and agriculture. While they have lower temperature and load limits compared to metal belts, their advantages in specific light-duty scenarios are significant. We offer a variety of plastic mesh belts in different materials and configurations for light industrial use.
