Conveyor Belts & Belting

Total Conveyor Confidence

Canning Conveyor is a trusted name with a long-standing reputation for delivering complete conveyor solutions you can rely on.

At the heart of our conveying excellence is the Cannoflex™ brand — engineered for demanding applications involving heavy, sharp-edged, or abrasive materials such as gravel, crushed stone, limestone, iron pellets, glass, coal, sand, and fertilisers.

Backed by over 60 years of belt manufacturing expertise, Cannoflex™ conveyor belts are renowned for their exceptional reliability and performance. Each belt undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it meets the highest standards in chemical composition, technology, structure, and manufacturing quality — guaranteeing only first-class products reach our customers.

Standard Flat Conveyor Belt

Engineered for Excellence

The Cannoflex™ Standard Conveyor Belt is manufactured to the highest standards of chemical, technological, structural, and production quality.

Constructed with E.P. (Polyester/Polyamide) fabric plies, the belt features abrasion-resistant rubber covers that comply with DIN 22102 and BS 409 specifications. The E.P. fabric is made from a synthetic woven blend — Polyester fibres in the warp and Polyamide (Nylon) fibres in the weft — ensuring superior strength, flexibility, and durability in demanding conveying applications.

Chevron Conveyor Belting

Versatile Sizes and Patterns

Cannoflex™ chevron belts are available in a comprehensive range of widths and pattern designs to suit virtually any application — including sizes beyond standard specifications. Each belt features integrally moulded cleats, formed as part of the top cover during manufacture, ensuring exceptional durability, strength, and performance.
