INDICA offers a fully integrated product design and manufacturing process that offers our customers the following benefits:
- Complete in-house manufacturing process including yarn preparation, compounding, weaving, FRAS impregnation and coating, and the ability to provide rubber covers, when required.
- Solid woven carcasses are designed to meet tensile strength equirements, operate efficiently at rated working tensions, and above all safely. These belts also offer impact resistance, tear resistance, and excellent fastener retention.
- FRAS PVC compound impregnation and covers provide optimum longitudinal and transverse flexibility, whether the conveyor system is empty or fully loaded, and provides the required flame retardant properties.
- Ability to manufacture heavier FRAS Rubber covers on FRAS PVC solid woven carcasses that offer a higher coefficient of friction, longer wear, and more tonnage over the life of the belt.
- Unique solid woven carcass design protects belt edges and resists edge fraying.
- Excellent belt tracking on long center conveyors as well as multiple transfer points, both loading and unloading
- Each roll of belting is subjected to continuous in-process quality testing and must meet our stringent final quality standards, both physical properties and FRAS requirements
- Products can be designed to conform to any country-specific FRAS standards for use in underground mines as well as surface applications where there is a potential for fire
- Products can be spliced by mechanical fasteners or by a finger splicing using hot vulcanizing methods
- Excellent for elevator belt applications as well due to unique carcass design and Plastisol consolidation properties

While the USA and Canada continue to use imperial measurements, other countries have changed over to the Metric System. South Africa uses the word ‘Class’ for belt designations while many other countries use the word ‘Type’. We at INDICA respect each country’s unique nomenclature and measurement systems. We produce our products to meet your specific requirements.
- In addition to our standard product range, custom design products can be developed and manufactured on request.
- Our unique in-house R & D facility caters to each customer need to the best of our ability, providing custom formulations, specific widths and lengths, custom covers, colors and more.,/
- INDICA typically designs products to a Safety Factor of 10 (10:1), however, we are pleased to consider any requirement where a different Safety Factor may be required.
- INDICA designs, manufactures and supplies conveyor belts based on the users following standard industry installation, operating and maintenance practices. We would be pleased to provide detailed recommendations upon request.
- Physical characteristics of our standard products such as thickness and weight, as in the following table, are nominal values which can vary somewhat due to normal variations in the manufacturing process. Buyers are advised to get the nominal values reconfirmed before placing any orders.
- Details can be provided upon request before an order is placed.
