Conveyors & Handling Systems

Hygienic Conveyor for Sticky and Sensitive Foods

Main function

The sanitary Mat Top modular food conveyor provides continuous and stable transport of unit or packaged products in areas where hygiene, cleanability, and compliance with strict sanitary practices (e.g., frequent cleaning, sensitive zones) are priority requirements. It is designed with materials and finishes suitable for washdown, rinsing, and environments where cleanliness is essential.

Typical applications

· Transport of food products in areas requiring periodic washing and sanitation
· Integration into processing lines where strict hygienic requirements apply
· Conveying toward packaging stations in sensitive environments
· Connection between processing stations requiring frequent cleaning interventions

 

Key benefits

· Washdown hygienic design: Finishes and materials adapted to intensive cleaning cycles, with no retention areas that could trap contaminants.
· Coplanar Mat Top surface: Provides continuous product support, reducing the risk of snagging or food residue accumulation.
· Enhanced durability in wet environments: Materials and surface treatments designed to withstand water exposure and cleaning agents.
· Modularity and scalability: Easy to assemble, reconfigure, or extend according to line requirements and sanitary constraints.
· Simplified maintenance: Easier access to components for routine maintenance without complex disassembly. The version equipped with a drum motor allows the entire conveyor with its motor to be removed for cleaning and maintenance purposes.
