Introduction
Forbo Siegling GmbH presents the Transilon ECOFIBER, a sustainable conveyor and processing belt solution. The document outlines the environmental benefits and technical specifications of the ECOFIBER belts, emphasizing their contribution to sustainability.

Specifications
The Transilon ECOFIBER belts are made with tension member fabric derived entirely from recycled PET bottles. This approach conserves raw materials and reduces energy consumption and CO2 emissions during production.

Procedures and Features

• Texglide Finish: The underside of the belt features a Texglide finish, enhancing sustainability by potentially reducing energy requirements by up to 50%.
• Bio-based PVC Coating: The top face of the belt is coated with bio-based PVC, which is comparable to conventional PVC but significantly reduces carbon emissions by over 60% during production.

Norms and Awards
The belts equipped with Texglide have been recognized with the “Best of Industry Award 2023” for their sustainability project, highlighting their energy-saving potential.
