Which material should the food industry choose conveyor belt

The conveyor belts commonly used in the food industry are divided into PVC and PU, which is more suitable for the food industry?

The chemical name of PVC is polyvinyl chloride. After testing by the company, the detection value of phthalic acid part of PVC conveyor belt is very high. Strictly speaking, PVC conveyor belt cannot be used in the conveying mechanism that directly contacts food.

The chemical name of pu conveyor belt is polyurethane. After testing by the company, the phthalic acid value of pu conveyor belt has not exceeded the national standard and can meet the requirements of the food industry for conveyor belts.

Summary: PVC conveyor belt can only be used in the packaging of non-direct contact with the food transport mechanism, PU conveyor belt can achieve contact and non-contact transport.
