Fenner Dunlop had the grand opening of its new conveyor belting distribution center. In line with the company’s growth strategy, as well as supporting the rapid growth of the western U.S. markets, the new distribution center will allow Fenner Dunlop to accelerate its efforts in providing the most innovative conveyor belting solutions to the North American market.

Strategically located in Phoenix, Arizona, Fenner Dunlop’s distribution center will offer valued customers immediate access to premium, North American made conveyor belting to meet the needs of their critical bulk material handling applications.

“At Fenner Dunlop, our goal is to manufacture the most durable, longest-lasting conveyor belts, which is crucial to our end users in fully optimizing the reliability and maximizing the productivity and profitability of their operations,” said Scott Frenz, senior vice president of Sales and Marketing at Fenner Dunlop.

“We’d like to make our products more accessible to the western U.S., which will allow this region to take better advantage of the benefits Fenner Dunlop conveyor belting has to offer,” added Frenz.

The more than 15,000 square foot climate-controlled facility will be fully stocked with heavy duty conveyor belting to support Fenner Dunlop’s western distributors and end users in various market segments including aggregates, construction, heavy metals, hard rock, coal mining, and other industrial bulk materials handling applications.

The facility will have cutting and slitting capabilities for quick response to distributor and end user needs, along with inventory intended to supplement the already significant levels of local conveyor belting stock held by the company’s expansive network of Total Conveyor Solutions Distributors (TCSDs) in the western U.S.

“With our western distribution partners continuously seeking to expedite Fenner Dunlop belting to their larger industrial customers, our new distribution center will make huge strides towards addressing this need,” said Gary Lang, Western executive account manager at Fenner Dunlop.

“Fenner Dunlop’s industrial partners certainly don’t have time to wait as they engage in expanding business opportunities in the west — the Western distribution center now brings Fenner Dunlop value much closer to them,”  added Lang.

For more than 150 years, the company’s continued growth has been rooted in the development of high-capacity conveying solutions with a heavy focus in research and development to manufacture conveyor belts that are extremely resistant to impact, rip and tear damage.

“We’ve seen significant growth in heavy mining opportunities such as precious metals and hard rock mining in the west and Fenner Dunlop understands that downtime is extremely costly for these operations. We are excited to now have the resources to better serve these markets,” said Darryl Kitzmiller, area manager at Fenner Dunlop.  

The new Fenner Dunlop distribution center is located at 21430 North 15th Lane, Suite 114, Phoenix, AZ, 85027 and opened to the public on July 6, 2023.
