Conveyor Belts, Components & Wear Parts
The after-market and OEM-supply tier feeding every BHS: conveyor belting and modular plastic belt, drive and idler rollers, heavy-duty kingpinless and stainless casters, bearings, ball-transfer units, skate wheels, polyurethane elastomers and composite chute and conveyor components. This is a maintenance-and-spares buyer, not a capital-project one — high-frequency, multi-vendor purchasing driven by mean-time-between-failure and availability SLAs rather than terminal programmes. It is also the largest by supplier count as the catalogue grows, since these parts are common across baggage, cargo and wider intralogistics handling.
"The Gulf's giant 24/7 hubs (DXB alone runs tens of kilometres of conveyor) drive heavy wear-part consumption and a constant maintenance-spares spend that is largely independent of new-build cycles. Ground handlers like dnata and the airport authorities' MRO arms procure belting, rollers and casters continuously, and GCC heat and dust raise the premium on high-temperature and sealed-bearing component specs."

Why it matters in Gulf aviation
- The Gulf's 24/7 hubs run enormous conveyor networks (DXB alone runs tens of kilometres), driving heavy wear-part consumption.
- This is a maintenance-and-spares spend driven by MTBF and availability SLAs, largely independent of new-build cycles.
- Ground handlers like dnata and the airport authorities' MRO arms procure belting, rollers and casters continuously.
- GCC heat and dust raise the premium on high-temperature and sealed-bearing component specs.

Key evaluation criteria for Gulf procurement
- Wear life and MTBF: parts are bought to availability SLAs, so durability and change interval matter more than unit price.
- Heat and dust specs: prioritise high-temperature belting and sealed bearings for the Gulf environment.
- Cross-system commonality: rollers, casters and ball-transfer units shared across baggage, cargo and intralogistics simplify spares stocking.
- Lead time and stock: high-frequency, multi-vendor purchasing rewards suppliers with regional availability.
- Belt compatibility: confirm belting matches the installed BHS drive, sortation and chute design.
