Food Grade Conveyor Belt
Hygienic rubber belt engineered specifically for bulk food contact operations.
Food Grade Conveyor Belt
Food Grade Conveyor Belts are specially manufactured for applications where hygiene, safety, and product purity are of utmost importance. Manufactured as per IS:1891 (Part V), these non-toxic belts are produced in a white shade and are designed for direct contact with food products.
CORE COMPOUNDING
White shade Non-Toxic Elastomers (Natural Rubber, EPDM, CR, NBR) with low-stretch EP fabric reinforcing layers
Overview & Engineering Design
Manufactured as per IS:1891 ( Part V), there are Non-Toxic Belts, manufactured in a White Shade, used in applications, where there is a direct contact of the food product with the belt surface. These belts do transfer any Odour or Colour to the products conveyed. Hilton MF also manufactured Heavy Duty Elevator Belts for applications relating to Grain Silos, Sugar, Soyabean etc. There belts are made from Low Stretch EP Fabric, typically 3 ply to 5 ply, having High Strength and excellent bolt holding ability.
Core Product Features
Hygiene & Safety Standards
Manufactured as per IS:1891 (Part V) white non-toxic belts designed for direct contact with food products without transferring odor, color, or contaminants.
Heavy Duty Elevator Belts
Options available for grain silos, sugar, and soybean conveying, utilizing low-stretch EP fabric (3 to 5 ply) with high strength and excellent bolt holding ability.
FDA & Compliance Ready
Fabricated from FDA-compliant, non-toxic materials that prevent contamination and ensure food safety standards are met.
Easy Cleaning & Maintenance
Smooth, non-porous surfaces resist bacterial growth and allow for quick, thorough washdowns between production batches.
Resistance to Oils & Fats
Formulated to withstand animal fats, vegetable oils, moisture, and mild cleaning chemicals without degradation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Technical answers regarding our food grade conveyor belt configurations.
Yes, we provide official Certificates of Compliance showing FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 (for rubber compounds) or EU 10/2011 (for PU/PVC thermoplastics) conformity. These certificates are required for food safety audits and HACCP plan approvals.
Standard raw-edge belts have exposed fabric plies that can absorb liquids, fray, and harbour bacteria. We offer closed-edge or sealed-edge profiles where the thermoplastic cover material completely encapsulates the carcass sides, preventing liquid ingress and ensuring a fully cleanable, sanitary conveyor operation.
Polyurethane (PU) has exceptional resistance to animal fats, vegetable oils, and abrasive wear, and handles scraping well without micro-cracking, making it ideal for meat processing, confectionery, and bakeries. PVC is more chemical-resistant to acids and chlorine cleaners, making it suitable for fruit/vegetable washing and packaging lines.
Our specialized food-grade silicone and Teflon-coated belts can handle baking tunnels up to 220°C. For IQF (Individual Quick Freezing) lines, we supply specialized low-temperature polyurethane covers that remain flexible and crack-free down to -40°C.
Yes, our polyurethane (PU) and modular belts are designed to withstand warm water high-pressure washing and chemical disinfection. However, we advise maintaining a safe nozzle distance and avoiding acidic cleaners above pH 10 to protect the raw base polymers from hydrolysis.
