Building Belts Since 2006

The History of D&D

Research and Development

In our early years, D&D focused its Midwest work ethic on research and development, investing heavily in cutting-edge technologies to manufacture, process, and distribute belts at the highest standards of durability.

Through collaboration with leading material suppliers and ongoing refinement of our production techniques, we quickly gained a reputation for delivering superior products that met the rigorous demands of our customers.

Power Products Supply

D&D Global was established and founded in 2006 under the name Power Products Supply. Scott and Ken, both experienced industry experts, shared vision of delivering superior power transmission solutions at a reasonable price.

As they poured their life’s savings into this new venture they knew they wanted to create a family-based business where employees enjoyed coming to work, had fun, and all shared the desire to take care of their customers.

Doing It All

D&D started in a small, dark, cold, miserable building. Scott and Ken took care of everything from sales to shipping to customer service and warehousing.

Within the first couple of years, they quickly outgrew that building and had to bring on additional personnel. The company moved a couple of times before landing in our first owned real estate in Rock Valley, IA.

A Trusted Name

By 2014, Power Products Supply had established itself as a trusted name in the power transmission industry. With an expanding customer base, Ken and Scott established a business plan to purchase the worldwide rights to the D&D brand.

Outgrowing Our Space

In 2015, D&D partnered with a group in Texas to add our warehouse outside of the Midwest. As the business grew, a warehouse was needed in the southeastern United States. In 2021, an additional 32,000 sq ft warehouse in Macon, GA was purchased.

Soon after, in 2018, the Rock Valley headquarters needed more space as well, and a 40,000 sq ft warehouse was built on the east side of Rock Valley. Only two years later an additional 20,000 sq ft was added on.

Innovation & Advancements

D&D continues to innovate, leveraging advancements in materials, science, and manufacturing technology to develop next-generation belts that offer unparalleled performance and longevity. Our dedication to quality and excellence is backed by a commitment to maintaining the highest standards of product quality and customer service.

A Global Leader

Today, D&D Global stands as a global leader in power transmission solutions, with a presence in global markets and a diverse customer base spanning numerous industries. As we look to the future, we remain focused on our core values of integrity, reliability and enthusiasm to drive continued growth and success for our clients, partners, and our business.

100% Vertical Integration

We're the only brand in the industry to control our belt manufacturing from start to finish by owning rubber tree plantations and belt molds, manufacturing cord and fabric, and mixing chemicals to form proprietary compounds. This ensures the absolute best quality with no third-party sourcing or markups.
