The D&D Difference: Vertical Integration from Start to Finish

Most belt manufacturers cut corners, outsourcing key components like rubber, tensile cords, and reinforcements. This leads to inconsistencies in quality, price fluctuations, and supply chain disruptions.

At D&D, we do things differently:

We Own Our Rubber Tree Plantations – Unlike companies that purchase rubber from third-party suppliers, we grow and harvest our own rubber, ensuring a sustainable and high-quality raw material for our belts.

We Don’t Use Cheap Fillers: –  We don’t use recycled materials, clay, talc, or hazardous compounds in our belts. This means low odor, superior durability, and cleaner air quality. Many competitors rely on cheap fillers that release toxic VOCs, leading to air pollution, respiratory issues, and faster belt degradation. With D&D, you get safe, high-performance belts built to last.

We Control the Manufacturing Process – From raw rubber processing to belt molding and vulcanization, we handle every step in-house, eliminating third-party inconsistencies. 

No Middlemen, No Markups – By eliminating external suppliers, we keep costs stable and pass the savings directly to our distributors and OEM customers without sacrificing quality.

Next Generation Manufacturing: Stronger, More Efficient Belts

D&D’s belts are produced using state-of-the-art Generation 3 manufacturing equipment, which improves:

• Durability & Wear Resistance – Proprietary rubber compounds reinforced with aramid and high-strength polyester provide extended belt life.
• Precision Engineering – Laser cutting and automated quality control ensure tight tolerances and consistent performance.
• Higher Load Capacity – Stronger tensile cords prevent stretch and improve shock absorption.
• Better Energy Efficiency – Our belts reduce friction, minimize heat buildup, and improve performance across industrial and automotive applications.

Cost Savings Without Sacrificing Quality

Because D&D owns every step of the production process, we eliminate the costs associated with middlemen markups, third-party supplier fluctuations, and supply chain delays. This doesn’t mean our belts are “cheap”—it means they’re competitively priced without compromising quality.

As an OEM, you get consistent pricing and reliable supply, so you never have to worry about sudden cost spikes or material shortages. Distributors can confidently sell a product that outperforms competitors and provides higher margins.

Quality Control: No Guesswork, No Inconsistencies

Many belt manufacturers quietly switch materials to cut costs, leading to unpredictable performance.
Customers often tell us, "We’ve used Brand X for years, but suddenly, their belts are failing. What changed?"

What changed? The materials.

At D&D, we never swap components just to save a few bucks. Our quality is consistent, tested, and trusted.

Faster Innovation & Customization = A Competitive Advantage

Because we own our manufacturing process, we can innovate faster. We don’t have to wait on suppliers and can test and improve products quickly. For those with customized belt needs, we adapt quickly. Competitors struggle to replicate our processes because we control them from start to finish.
