French term or phrase: rouleau de ceinture

CONTEXT:

"Les rouleaux de ceinture sont désormais présents dès la gamme 0".

It's talking about judo and karate, so I'm pretty sure "ceinture" refers to martial arts belts. I am translating it provisionally as "belt rolls", but I'd like independent confirmation that such a thing actually exists and that I'm not writing nonsense.

TIA.
