At IntraPac 2025, to be held from 10 to 13 December 2025 at India Expo Mart, Greater Noida, Spectra Plast India, a manufacturer and exporter of modular belts, slat chains and a complete range of conveyor components, will highlight how the role of conveyor systems is rapidly evolving and moving towards automation beyond traditional material movement. 

According to S Ramkumar, managing director, Spectra Plast, this transformation is unfolding through smarter, more efficient, and sustainability-centred conveyor technologies.

“The industry is moving rapidly into automation,” Ramkumar said. “With rising production capacities across beverage and food plants, the conveyor system is becoming a vital element in ensuring high throughput, efficiency, and precision.”

The company is located at hall 9, stand A2.

Conveyors built for sustainability

According to Ramkumar, one of the most impactful developments at Intrapac will be the highlight of a new conveyor belting technology from its portfolio that operates without lubrication or water. “Water requirement in large bottling and beverage operations can be enormous,” he noted. “Our new-age conveyor material eliminates the need for lubricant and water usage to a certain extent, contributing to long-term sustainability gains.”

He noted that with resource efficiency influencing CAPEX decisions, especially in high-volume sectors such as beverages and dairy, these belts offer a direct path to reduced operating expenditure, a lower environmental footprint, cleaner and safer plant environments, and improved regulatory compliance. This shift showcases the broader packaging and food and beverage industry’s transition toward greener materials, recyclable systems, and energy-efficient machinery.

Ramkumar believes the future of conveyor technology will be fully intelligent and adaptive. “The future is not just conveyors, it is smart conveyors,” he stated. “With AI support, the conveyor line will be able to sort, grade, and label products automatically. Processes that once needed multiple units may now be executed directly on the conveyor path.”
