As one of the primary ways to mitigate risks and ensure that foods are safe for consumption, food grade belts are essential to your operation. Helping to reduce bacteria counts, these conveyor belts are often used for hours on end without interruptions. Because of this, you need to be absolutely confident that you’re utilizing the most dependable belts in the industry. You need belts that can withstand the rigors of your operation and, above all else, belts that will help you produce products that are safe for your customers. In today’s post, we’re going to look at three benefits of the belts available from Great Lakes Belting.
1. Improved quality standards
Food grade conveyors can lead to reduced contamination, breakage, and spillage. Since they contribute to a consistent, automated workflow, you can rest easy knowing that you’re taking the steps necessary to deliver products that are produced the same way, handled the same way, and delivered the same way.
2. Reduced labor costs
When you utilize food grade belts, you’re utilizing a tool that was purpose built for the task at hand. Engineered to be food safe, they can reduce labor costs by helping to reliably automate common processes and eliminating the need for workers to complete certain tasks.
3. Improve product safety
If you’re making food products, safety should be your primary concern. Our belts are both cut and abrasion resistant and, since they have no ply or hinged elements, there’s fewer places for them to harbor bacteria. The result is a cleaner, safer belt that ensures that you’re delivering the safest possible products to your customers.
