Ltd. Wire Belt Company of America Wire Belt Company of America is a fourth-generation family owned business that manufactures wire mesh conveyor belts used in many different industries such as food processing, bakery, confectionery, textile, automotive and many others. We make conveyor belts, drive components, and conveyors for many industries. Most people will have seen our belts on the conveyorized pizza ovens or toasters in many fast food restaurants. Almost every chocolate-covered candy bar is made on belts like ours. We sell our products to all major food processors and manufacturers of food processing equipment. Virtually every bit of protein at McDonald's and all other fast food restaurants has been on our belt during its manufacture. Our various product lines are used for baking bread, coating products (candy), cooking, frying and seasoning, among other uses. Wire Belt employees are the most diverse aspect of the company, where you can hear as many as seven languages being spoken. Kind, hard working, fun and loyal people are what best describes the employees of Wire Belt. We hire for a wide- range of jobs, from professional positions (i.e. sales, marketing, finance, human resources, and engineering) as well as manufacturing positions, such as toolmakers and machinists, mechanics, and machine operators. Our most recent hires were a Technical Support Engineer and Marketing Specialist.

Families of employees are also invited to use, manage and take from the garden. Major supporters of the UpReach Therapeutic Equestrian Center in Goffstown, NH, we've spent years fundraising and volunteering for this meaningful program that helps the disadvantaged. Wire Belt employees have alone built two outdoor walking sheds for the therapy horses. We annually participate in Operation Santa, where just last year we provided over 160 children with gifts for Christmas. Wire Belt were the recipients of the Governor's Award for Pollution Prevention in 2010. We have also twice won Business NH Magazine's "Lean and Green Award. Being ISO 19000 registered (one of very few companies in NH to do so), reduce, reuse, recycle and remove is the way at Wire Belt. We have a one- stream recycling system at Wire Belt. At a scrap rate of 3.5, we recycle 100 percent of all stainless steel. Wire Belt's roof has a 275 Kilowatt photovoltaic system with hundreds of solar panels which generate a large part of our electrical needs. More is planned, and our goal is to be 100 percent solar powered in the future.
