Secondary Manufacturing Processes for cigarette production require special belting properties. All applications with direct tobacco contact must have non-toxic solutions, while the transfer of cigarettes into packaging machines and of cigarette packets from bundlers / cartoners into case packers and palletizers require belts with low or high-grip properties.
Our product range covers all these applications.
