Who we are
Glyn Aylward and Steve Wheatley founded Central Conveyors Ltd in 2007. Glyn has worked in conveyors for 34 years and Steve for 42. Today, we design and manufacture conveyors and automation equipment at our 15,000 sq ft factory in Loughborough.
Our own team handles sales, 3D design, machining, fabrication, control panels and PLC programming. Our electricians and mechanical installation crew fit the equipment on site.
We build single conveyors and complete systems for food production, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, warehousing and distribution, with support and service plans available after installation.
Choosing your conveyor, made easier.
We manufacture belt, roller, modular belt, chain and pallet conveyors for production, packing and distribution. Tell us what you need to move, the space available and your required output.
Standard conveyors typically take 4 to 6 weeks from order. We confirm delivery with your quotation and agree bespoke project schedules individually.
See our complete conveyor systems, bespoke belt conveyors, completed projects and planning guides.
For a standard horizontal conveyor, calculate a belt conveyor budget price. Prices start at £2,390 excluding VAT, supply only, for a 300mm belt × 1,000mm conveyor. CCL confirms suitability before you order.
Our Process
Start with your products, target output and available space. We’ll work with you to define the right conveyor system and prepare detailed 3D drawings for your approval before manufacture.
Your system is built at our 15,000 sq ft UK facility, with factory acceptance testing available before delivery. The engineers who help build it also carry out the installation, so your project benefits from continuity.
Once installed, our team provides ongoing support to help you keep products moving. From your first enquiry to aftercare, you have a clear next step and a team that knows your system.
Bespoke Conveyor Systems for Every Industry
We build conveyor systems for food and drink production, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, retail and warehouse distribution. Each job starts with your products and how they need to move through the site. We look at the load, required output, cleaning needs and the equipment already in place, then design the conveyors and controls to suit.
