Company profile: The Starglide® passenger belt, pioneered and patented by Fenner-Dunlop for moving walkways, is supported by edge rollers which improves the ride quality for passengers (better for joints and emitting less noise). Airports also prefer the low pit depth requirements and improved traction, particularly when wet. With our integration with Michelin, we are developing a complete belt-based walk system that is focused on energy efficiency (~50% less) and reliability (less downtime and maintenance).
