Flexco Selected as Finalist for the CONEXPO-CON/AGG Next Level Awards

Flexco is excited to announce its FXC™ Steel Cord Belt Fastening System has been selected as a finalist for the CONEXPO-CON/AGG Next Level Awards. This awards program honors outstanding achievement and breakthroughs in the construction industry, with submissions judged on innovation, application, engineering, scalability and impact. This recognition places Flexco among the most innovative leaders in the field, underscoring its impact in the industry and dedication to moving it forward. Flexco is one of ten finalists in the equipment category. These ten finalists will compete for the most attendee votes during CONEXPO-CON/AGG, March 3-7, 2026 in Las Vegas, Nevada. 

“Being named a finalist for the CONEXPO-CON/AGG Next Level Awards is an incredible honor, especially because it comes from our industry peers, the people who understand firsthand the challenges of reducing conveyor downtime,” said Franklin Moore, Heavy-Duty Mechanical Belt Fastener Product Manager. “The FXC™ Steel Cord Belt Fastening System was built to solve a problem that operations have struggled with for decades: what do you do when a steel cord belt fails and you can't afford to wait days for a vulcanized splice? In turn, we developed a simple solution that on-site maintenance teams can install on the same day. I encourage anyone at the show to stop by Booth C30914 and see the FXC up close for a hands-on product demo. We’re looking forward to conversations on how the FXC is helping sites turn multi-day shutdowns into uptime in less than a shift, and what that means for safety, productivity, and peace of mind.” 

“CONEXPO-CON/AGG is committed to celebrating innovation and recognizing those companies that are shaping the future of our industry,” said Dana Wuesthoff, CONEXPO-CON/AGG Show Director. “Being named a finalist for the Next Level Awards is a testament to the hard work, creativity, and excellence that organizations like Flexco bring to our sector. We look forward to showcasing these outstanding achievements at the show.”
