Flexible Material Handling, Best Conveyors Unite as One Company

April 3, 2015

Flexible Material Handling, Suwanee, Ga., and Best Conveyors, LLC, Jonesboro, Ark., united and re-branded as FMH Conveyors, thus combining both company’s expertise and resources in the materials handling industry.

Both companies were brought together under one parent company, Duravant, Downers Grove, Ill., after an acquisition, and continue to serve their customers and the marketplace independently.

“Formally aligning these two great organizations was the next step,” says Kurt Huelsman, senior vice president and general manager of FMH Conveyors. “For years, we’ve both worked really hard individually, but we quickly realized we were a stronger, faster and more innovative solutions provider together as one customer-focused organization. Our top priority was to align our sales, engineering and applications design teams to our customer accounts.”

FMH Conveyors is made of NestaFlex, BestFlex, BestReach and MaxxReach brands.

FMH Conveyors debuted as a single-source solutions provider at this year’s ProMat show.
