Arrow Conveyor Equipment, INC

What Arrow Conveyor Equipment, INC does

Arrow Conveyor Equipment, Inc. is a privately held industrial equipment manufacturer founded in 1958 and headquartered in Webster, New York, specializing in conveyor systems and material handling equipment for food, beverage, pharmaceutical, personal care, container manufacturing, and household products manufacturers. The company designs, engineers, and builds a broad portfolio of products including table-top and mat-top chain conveyors, motor-driven roller conveyors, drag chain pallet conveyors, vacuum conveyors (using Intralox-approved belting), wash-down conveyors, depalletizers (XODUS™ low-level and ALPHA TURBO™ high-level), gripper and vacuum elevators, thermal processing equipment (spray coolers, warmers, pasteurizers, headspace sterilizers), case palletizers, and case turners/diverts/laners based on the patented ARB™ (Accumulative Rotating Belt) platform. The company also operates a Thermal Testing Lab that uses machine-learning-driven data collection to develop water reduction and thermal efficiency methods, and offers the ArrowSelect® Quick Ship modular conveyor program for faster standard deliveries.

The firm's revenue model is built on custom quote-based, project-driven capital equipment sales executed through a direct sales organization with no dealer or distributor intermediaries. Pricing is configured per application based on chain widths, modules, motor/drive selections, and customer specifications, with contracts typically structured as multi-year equipment purchases plus associated spare parts (Rexnord, Regina, Solus chain and component aftermarket). The company serves a diversified vertical mix spanning food and beverage as the primary segment, with secondary penetration into pharmaceutical, personal care, container manufacturing, and household products. Go-to-market relies on a corporate website with quote-request forms, telephone-based consultative selling, and a modest LinkedIn/Facebook presence; the operating footprint is United States-domestic with no confirmed international revenue.
