Reinforcing\u00a0the\u00a0Commitment to the Belting Industry and Distribution Partners<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

AMMEGA Group, a global leader in power transmission and conveyor belting solutions, is proud to announce its return as\u00a0exclusive presenting\u00a0sponsor of the 2026 NIBA Annual Convention \u2014 marking the second consecutive year AMMEGA has held this role. This continued partnership underscores AMMEGA\u2019s long-standing support of the belting industry and deep commitment to serving our distributor partners across the Americas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Held annually, the NIBA (The Belting Association) convention brings together top professionals, manufacturers, and distributors to strengthen connections, share insights, and drive the industry forward. With its focus on distribution, NIBA remains an essential platform for AMMEGA to further its mission of being the local partner of choice and promoting innovation, collaboration, and customer-centric solutions in the marketplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cReturning\u00a0<\/em>as the exclusive presenting\u00a0<\/em>sponsor for a second year is a reflection of how much we value this community,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0said Ricard G\u00f3mez, Vice President,\u00a0US Conveyor\u00a0Indirect Sales Channel \u2013\u00a0AMMEGA.\u00a0\u201cOur commitment to the distribution channel isn\u2019t a one-time gesture \u2014 it\u2019s an ongoing investment. As our portfolio grows stronger and more unified, so does our ability to support our partners with the right solutions, delivered locally and backed by global\u00a0expertise.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strengthening the Conveyor Portfolio Through Brand Unification<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year\u2019s sponsorship comes at a pivotal moment for AMMEGA\u2019s conveyor business. Ammeraal Beltech, AMMEGA\u2019s conveyor belting brand, recently unified several long-trusted names in the industry \u2014 including\u00a0uni,\u00a0Chemprene, and Green Belting \u2014 under a single portfolio. Each brand brings decades of specialized expertise:\u00a0uni\u2019s\u00a0heritage in modular belting\u00a0and chains\u00a0technologies,\u00a0Chemprene\u2019s\u00a0material science strength in rubber-coated textiles and lightweight rubber belting, and Green Belting\u2019s specialization in high-performance PTFE and silicone-coated solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Together, this unification gives customers access to a portfolio spanning 10 product categories \u2014 including Modular Belts and Chains, Lightweight Rubber Belts, PTFE Solutions, Synthetic Belts, and more \u2014 all while preserving the technical know-how and engineering strength that made these brands trusted names in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Broader Portfolio, A Local Partner of Choice<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This unification reinforces what AMMEGA has long aimed to be: the local partner of choice for customers across the Americas. With one of the broadest portfolios in the industry \u2014 spanning conveyor belts through\u00a0Ammeraal\u00a0Beltech\u00a0and power transmission belts through\u00a0Megadyne\u00a0\u2014 AMMEGA is positioned to support customers across nearly every application, industry, and stage of their operations, all through a single, trusted relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Megadyne, AMMEGA\u2019s power transmission brand, further complements the belting portfolio, bringing decades of expertise in timing belts, v-belts, and specialty drive solutions that power manufacturing, automation, packaging, and robotics applications across the Americas. This reflects AMMEGA\u2019s broader commitment to strengthening local supply chains and supporting customers across the region: by combining manufacturing expertise with strategically positioned\u00a0inventory,\u00a0Megadyne\u00a0ensures both engineering know-how and immediate availability. This approach aligns with the company\u2019s Your Local Partner of Choice commitment \u2014 delivering reliable, responsive solutions designed to meet the needs of the Americas market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur focus has always been on strengthening our relationships with distributors and giving them the confidence that AMMEGA will deliver when it matters most,\u201d said Kyo Oh, Vice President of Power Transmission and Fluid Power Solutions \u2013 AMMEGA. \u201cWhether conveyor or power transmission belts, our commitment to service level is the same: the right product, in the right place, at the right time, backed by a team that understands our distributors\u2019 business as well as our own.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This sponsorship builds on the success of AMMEGA\u2019s Belting Technology Conference (BTC) and\u00a0further positions\u00a0the company as a thought leader and collaborative force across the belting industry. It also reflects AMMEGA\u2019s continued investment in localized U.S. manufacturing and customer\u00a0support: over the past several years, the company has expanded its domestic operational footprint to include 14 warehouses, eight customer solution centers, five manufacturing facilities, and three fabrication sites across the United States. These investments help reduce lead times, strengthen supply chain resilience, and provide customers with faster access to products and technical support. AMMEGA looks forward to engaging with attendees, sharing insights, and continuing to shape the future of belting together with our partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
