"DEPREUX, a world leader in the field of high tensile strength conveyor belts."

    In an underground mine, a conveyor belt is a strategic component of the utmost importance :

    it contributes to the overall safety of a mine, and therefore has to be flame- resistant and have anti-static properties. These rule out the possibility of a fire spreading, or of an explosion in the mine galleries.

    ?in the operation of a mine, conveyor belts transport large quantities of coal or other minerals from the face up to the surface. Any problem with a conveyor belt could have significant financial consequences,plus emergency breakdown services, and the repairing or replacement of sections of a belt is far more expensive underground than on the surface. DEPREUX's experience with some of the world's most exacting mines such as Ruhrkohle, Saarbergwerke in Germany or Charbonnages de France, RJB and Scottish Coal in United Kingdom, many others in Australia,together with our experience in countries where the industry is being expanded or reconstructed, such as South Africa , Poland, Ukraine or India, has enabled us to become one of the world leaders in belts for underground mining and to offer : solid -woven textile conveyor belts up to the type 3150 N/mm,

    belts with a technical and performance that goes beyond the norms and specifications of each of the countries with which we work (e.g. the norm BS 3289 in the United Kingdom),

    belts which are made to last, notably because of their high resistance to incidents such as the wearing down of edges, longitudinal tearing, or heavy impacts,

    belts with several other advantages such as a high resistance when used with mechanical fasteners.

    DEPREUX offers a wide range of products, made to comply with the norms and standards of the country in which it is to be used :

    multiply rubber belts,

    solid-woven belts with PVC covers,

    solid-woven belts with rubber covers (PVG) up to the type 3150 N/mm.
