Europe’s largest producer of baked savory snacks has used Volta for over 20 years. A post-seasoning conveyor was plagued with abrasion caused by salt which deposited miniscule plastic fragments from the belt into the product and wore the modular joints out in just over two years. A Volta 4mm positive drive belt was fitted in 2001 and gave over 13 years of consistent hygienic service. Similar belts were then installed on all the elevators used on multi-head weigher lines.
