About Us

OUR STORY

Roach Manufacturing Corporation was founded in 1953 by Gay Roach Sr.

Originally, the company's sole purpose was to design and build a line of heavy-duty highly-specialized conveyors for weighing, transporting and storing heavy, bulky bales of cotton. The company continued to heavily rely upon this manufacturing concern until 1971, when the company began to market itself as Roach Conveyors.

Today, Roach Conveyors offers a broad product lineup by continually expanding its line of package, pallet and floor conveyors. The flexibility of Roach Conveyors features complete system integration. This includes designing, building and working closely with our distributors producing a mix of our standard product line and highly-specialized units.

The flexibility of Roach Conveyors features "complete system integration" including designing, building and installing a mix of our standard product line and when the need arises, highly specialized units, including supplying and again--installing all electrical controls necessary to complete the job--a complete TURNKEY project.

"Our proud past is the foundation for the strong, American Made, future of Roach Conveyors."

Since 1953 Roach Manufacturing has emerged as one of the most innovative conveyor manufacturers in the world. Over the last 70 years we have designed and built a multitude of equipment ranging from basic transportation to highly specialized equipment engineered to perform detailed tasks.

In the 1980s and 1990s, Roach Conveyors continued to grow and evolve, responding to changing customer needs and advances in technology. During this time, the company introduced new materials and manufacturing processes, and developed new products, such as hygienic conveyors for the food processing industry. Roach Conveyors also increased its investment in research and development, and worked to improve the efficiency and performance of its conveyor systems.

The basic guiding philosophy of Roach Conveyors is simple.

WHATEVER IT TAKES.

This simple philosophy has grown this organization from its simple bale-handling roots in 1953 into a major national conveyor manufacturer today. Roach is committed to do WHATEVER IT TAKES to meet customer needs.
