Sustainability is paramount at LBS Conveyor Belts. We have long been committed to making our operations more sustainable and minimising our impact on the environment. On this page, we would like to inform you about ongoing projects and the steps LBS Conveyor Belts is taking towards our sustainable future.

OUR DOT ON THE HORIZON

Our goal is to be fully circular by 2050, with a perfect balance between sound social, environmental and financial policies. This is an ambitious but necessary goal given today's global challenges.

THE REASON: WHY SUSTAINABILITY IS CRUCIAL

The world's population has grown enormously in recent decades, leading to increased demand for food and other products. To meet this demand, production has increased significantly, often even more than necessary. This has resulted in excessive use of natural resources, which the earth cannot keep up with, resulting in depletion.

Moreover, we use many polluting resources such as oil and gas on a daily basis. The large-scale burning of these, which is required for manufacturing, transporting and using products, causes CO2 emissions. This accelerates global warming and increases the likelihood of devastating natural disasters.

The effects of climate change are already visible and felt worldwide. Many animal and plant species are threatened with extinction, and natural disasters such as forest fires, earthquakes and floods are becoming more frequent. This leads to human casualties, billions of euros in damages and makes more and more areas uninhabitable, making a healthy future for future generations increasingly unlikely.

OUR MISSION: HIGH QUALITY, SUSTAINABLE AND SAFE

At LBS Conveyor Belts, we believe it is our responsibility to contribute to a sustainable and healthy future. For this reason, we have set up the GreenTeam, a group of colleagues from different departments focused on making our company and our environment greener and more sustainable.

Our mission is to sustainably develop and produce high-quality, custom-made plastic and rubber conveyor belts. Conveyor belts that meet tomorrow's requirements and contribute to a sustainable, healthy and safe world.

OUR VISION: WORKING TOGETHER TOWARDS A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

With our many years of experience and expertise, we help customers in the recycling, agro and food industry to improve their products and processes in a sustainable way. We continue to develop and innovate continuously, from good to excellent and from resistant to sustainable. Together, we strive for the best result, reliable continuity, optimum satisfaction and, above all, a sustainable future for ourselves, our customers and future generations.GreenTeam LBS
