Important: BISSC was purchased by The BEAG Group, making the BISSC standard no longer applicable.
BISSC, which stands for the Baking Industry Sanitation Standards Committee, is an independent body that was formed to establish and enforce voluntary sanitation standards for the equipment used in industrial baking.
When it comes to material handling, some situations are tougher than others. High heat, extreme cold, caustic chemicals, corrosive conditions, and more can all contribute to what are called harsh environments.
When you need a conveyor for such an environment, it’s important to know that the system you get will be up to the challenge. That’s why mk North America specializes in the creation of engineered conveyor solutions custom-suited to harsh environments and other special conditions.
Vacuum belt conveyors, or conveyors with a vacuum in them, are essential in today’s manufacturing environment. Vacuum conveyors can be used to hold flat parts to the belt’s surface, for elevation changes, or overhead conveying and are ideal for carrying small parts and operating at high speeds. A variety of vacuum sources can be used.
If you’re looking for a robust conveying solution to meet the needs of the modern fruit and vegetable handling and processing industries, mk North America offers a number of conveyor systems ideal for such challenges. mk’s CleanMove stainless steel conveyors are particularly well-suited to perform as fruit and vegetable conveyors.

The majority of industrial fires which begin on or around conveyor systems occur as a result of ignited coal dust in underground mining operations. But while the fire risks of the fossil fuel industry are well-known and documented, fires involving belt conveyors or other material handling systems are far from restricted to this sphere of production.
As modern manufacturing and research industries move toward increasingly sensitive areas of production, cleanrooms (or clean rooms) are becoming more widely necessary. Increased reliance on cleanroom production for industries like pharmaceutical research, food and beverage production, electronics manufacturing, solar panel manufacturing, semiconductors, and semiconductor wafer manufacturing has led to a corresponding increase in the need for cleanroom automation and cleanroom technology such as conveyor systems.
