Reducing Downtime with the uni MPB C POM MD

A major juice manufacturer was facing expensive downtime and recalls. The use of a competitor’s plastic modular belt led to approximately $10K in downtime per month. In addition to the high cost of downtime and maintenance, the belt was difficult to clean and broken modules were contaminating the finished product, causing consumer safety concerns and/or expensive recalls.
