The Fenner® brand started life over 145 years ago in 1861 when Joseph Henry Fenner (J. H. Fenner) started his company to manufacture horse hair and leather power transmission belts. In 1921 Fenner began developing woven textile belting and was soon producing some of the finest transmission belting available in the market.
The J. H. Fenner grew consistently to become one of the largest suppliers in the country and the name became synonymous with quality hardwearing products, a feature that remains a corner stone of the brand today.
