Why Trinidad and Tobago needs elevator buckets
Trinidad and Tobago is the Caribbean's energy hub, with LNG, ammonia and methanol plants at Point Lisas and Point Fortin.
Belts, idlers, buckets and drag chains wear out in abrasive service, and a stopped conveyor stops the plant, so critical spares are kept on site.

Mines and processing plants in Trinidad and Tobago move ore on belt conveyors and bucket elevators around the clock. Spherical roller bearings, gear couplings, conveyor belts and idlers wear continuously, so reliable spares supply directly protects production.
