Fenner Conveyors Recognised for Sustainability Leadership with Major Industry Awards
Fenner Conveyors is proud to announce that it has been named the winner of the 2026 Bulk Handling Awards Sustainability in Bulk Handling category, while also being recognised as a finalist in the 2026 Australian Mining Awards Sustainability Innovation category.
Both accolades acknowledge the company's work in advancing circular economy principles through the development of InfinitySeries, an innovative range of recycled-content conveyor belts manufactured in partnership with Australian resource recovery leader Tyrecycle.
Launched earlier this year, InfinitySeries® represents a significant step forward in sustainable conveyor belting. What began as an ambitious vision to create a truly circular solution for the conveyor belting industry has become a reality through Fenner Conveyors' partnership with Tyrecycle. By combining expertise in resource recovery, recycling, engineering and manufacturing, the two organisations have developed a process that recovers materials from end-of-life conveyor belts and repurposes them into new, high-performance recycled-content conveyor belts manufactured in Australia.
This collaboration demonstrates the power of industry partnerships in addressing complex sustainability challenges. Rather than viewing end-of-life belts as waste, InfinitySeries treats them as a valuable resource, keeping materials in circulation for longer and reducing the volume of conveyor belting sent to landfill.
The recognition was made even more meaningful by the opportunity to celebrate alongside members of the Tyrecycle team, whose collaboration has been instrumental in bringing the InfinitySeries® concept to life.
These awards reflect Fenner Conveyors' ongoing commitment to finding practical and scalable solutions that reduce waste and support a more circular approach to industrial manufacturing. They also highlight the growing importance of sustainability innovation across the bulk materials handling and mining sectors.
While the company is honoured to receive industry recognition for its efforts, Fenner Conveyors sees these achievements as motivation to continue exploring new opportunities for innovation. The success of InfinitySeries® marks an important milestone, but it is only one step in a broader journey towards more sustainable products, processes, and outcomes for customers and industry alike.
Fenner Conveyors congratulates all finalists and winners recognised throughout the awards program and looks forward to seeing how innovation across the industry continues to evolve in the years ahead.
