ContiTech has strategically reorganised its conveyor belt business to focus more on its industrial applications business in the future. For this purpose, the conveyor belt specialist has created the new segment, Industrial Belt Solutions. ?Our conveyor belt portfolio for industrial applications is growing steadily. Service and digitalisation also offer the business further potential. Furthermore, many of our customers are merging into increasingly larger units, meaning that our way of thinking and working is taking on new dimensions to meet their changing needs and requirements,? says Dr. Michael Hofmann of the ContiTech Conveyor Belt Group, who has taken on the role of segment head.

ContiTech wants to cater for conveyor belt customers in the raw materials processing industry more purposefully and directly and has therefore reorganised its industrial application business with the creation of the Industrial Belting Solutions segment.

It is therefore combining its skills from the industrial business and expertise from the development of special conveyor belts. The clear objective of the new industrial segment in the conveyor belt business is to cater for customers more purposefully and directly, focusing primarily on the raw-material-processing industry, power and cement plants, steel manufacturers, port operators, and the recycling and wood industries. With a portfolio of products comprising harvesters and work machines, the off-highway industry forms a second key pillar of the new segment.
