IPCO is a world leader in the supply of premium-quality steel press belts for the wood-based panel industry, providing high-performance solutions to produce particle board, MDF, OSB, and laminated veneer lumber.

IPCO offers press belts in two primary steel grades (1100C and 1650SM) each designed to deliver an optimal combination of tensile strength, elasticity, thermal conductivity, and resistance to corrosion and general wear.

These high-performance belts are engineered to withstand the demanding conditions of continuous pressing, ensuring maximum productivity and longevity. Manufactured at IPCO’s state-of-the-art facility in Sandviken, Sweden, these belts meet the highest industry standards and are certified to ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001:2018.

IPCO can supply press belts in widths of up to 4,620 mm and thicknesses ranging from 1.2 mm to 3.5 mm, with the capability to deliver virtually any required length.

Belt maintenance is a key factor in ensuring smooth panel production, and IPCO is at the forefront of developing innovative service tools that allow for high-quality repairs. Belt damage is an unfortunate but unavoidable challenge in the manufacturing process, and IPCO’s advanced repair solutions ensure that belts can be restored as close as possible to their original condition.

The QuickDisc Plus 500 is a cutting-edge tool that allows for precise removal and replacement of damaged belt areas, minimizing downtime and ensuring continued performance.

The Shotpeener Pro, a portable and highly effective restoration unit, is designed to return deformed belts to a perfectly flat condition without interrupting production, helping manufacturers maintain efficiency and product quality.

IPCO’s latest technological breakthrough, the ProRelease system, sets a new benchmark in the application of release agents to press belts. This innovative process features a specially designed spray bar that produces an ultra-fine mist of release agent, ensuring uniform and precise coverage. The result is a cleaner belt, reduced sticking, and a higher-quality finished product.
