Liberty Technologies, a worldwide industry leader and innovator of unit load and packaging systems, is adding stainless steel mat top conveyor to its portfolio of automated and semi-automated materials handling equipment and systems.

The first offering will be stainless steel conveyor products developed for the food and beverage industry. The line will include straight and curved conveyor sections and combiners as well as implementation services to integrate the conveyor with existing systems.
