Fenner Dunlop Americas Receives
MSHA 30CFR14 Approval
Fire Boss® underground conveyor belting certified

Scottdale, GA, May 12, 2009 – Fenner Dunlop Americas announced today that it has received MSHA 30CFR14 B.E.L.T. approval for its underground Fire Boss® conveyor belts. The underground product line was specifically developed to exceed the new B.E.L.T. standards, making worksites safer for underground conveying.

The new Fire Boss® compounds were developed as key ingredients in Fenner Dunlop’s fire retardant belting to significantly reduce fire propagation and smoke density. The self-extinguishing properties of Fire Boss® aid in sustaining oxygen levels, in reducing smoke density and in suppressing carbon monoxide levels in case of a mine fire.
