Fire resistant belts are designed to delay ignition, limit flame spread and support safe shutdown. They must be used together with proper fire safety systems and operating controls.
BOTON fire resistant conveyor belts are engineered to help reduce fire-risk uncertainty, limit flame propagation and support reliable operation in demanding surface and underground conveying applications.

Fire resistant performance must be proven before it reaches the site.
BOTON’s testing process evaluates how belt structures respond to friction, flame, static discharge, wear and splicing conditions — helping operators reduce fire-risk uncertainty and improve long-term conveying reliability.
UNDERGROUND STRUCTURE SELECTOR
Underground fire resistant belt selection starts with the structure you use today — and the limitation you need to solve.
PATH 01
Upgrade when troughability, flexibility, edge wear or wet/cold conditions begin to limit performance.
PATH 02
Upgrade when belt weight, splice quantity, lifting tension or energy use becomes the hidden cost.
Fire resistant does not mean fireproof
Fire resistant belts are designed to delay ignition, limit flame spread and support safe shutdown. They must be used together with proper fire safety systems and operating controls.
Why anti-static performance matters
In dust-prone or explosive environments, static discharge can become an ignition source. Anti-static performance is critical for coal, chemical, grain and underground applications.
Steel cord or solid woven?
Steel cord is typically used for high-tension, long-distance and main haulage systems. Solid woven PVC/PVG is widely used for mature underground applications with proven installation and maintenance practices.
When to consider FRS laminated belts
FRS is suitable when operators want an upgrade path from traditional PVC/PVG systems, especially where troughability, flexibility, corrosion resistance and wear performance matter.
When aramid becomes worth considering
Aramid becomes more compelling when reduced belt weight, fewer splices, lower energy consumption or steep-angle conveying can create clear lifecycle value.
Splice method and maintenance strategy
Splice design depends on belt structure, installation conditions and maintenance priorities. Correct splicing is essential for long-term fire-risk conveying reliability.
