Fish and seafood processing applications
Where can Intralox make the difference for you?
ReceivingWithstand harsh receiving line conditions with the right belting solution
Fish and seafood receiving areas have many harsh conditions, including abrasion (from sand, grit, saltwater, etc.) and heavy product loads. Conveyor belts that can’t withstand these conditions can chip or break, leading to unscheduled maintenance and downtime, FMC risks, stress, and unpredictability.
Intralox conveyor belts for fish and seafood receiving have been developed with the right combination of durability, abrasion resistance, and drainage to ensure reliability and long belt life. Consult with our industry experts to determine the exact solution best suited to your unique receiving line conditions.
