Through its subsidiary ContiTech, Continental held a key-role in the maintenance of the 100 km-long conveyor belt that carries phosphate rock from the Bou Craa mine out to the sea, from where it is shipped to clients internationally. Continental's involvement in Western Sahara started in 1971, when the territory was still colonised by Spain.
