NEW AGE INDUSTRIAL K-12 Products
One of the major conversations during the height of the pandemic was how to make in-person school safe for children. While that debate continues, many schools responded by adjusting their meal service to promote safety, whether kids are eating in the cafeteria, their classrooms or picking up meals curbside. But investing in the equipment needed to accommodate those changes can be a hefty price for what will hopefully only be a temporary service change. Recognizing that, New Age Industrial is offering equipment to the K-12 market that has the flexibility to be used in many ways, retaining value even as operations return to normal. Some of the items that have been popular in the K-12
market include utility carts, pan racks, build-your-own carts and lug dollies. “Tey don’t have to reinvent the wheel and purchase a bunch of new items they may never use again,” says Megan Keiswetter, manager of marketing for New Age Industrial. “Tese are standard items, that many of them already purchased, used in new ways.”
New Age Industrial’s products are ideal for schools because
they are customizable, mobile, easy-to-use and multi-use, Keiswetter notes. Further, they are built to withstand heavy daily use. Te company is an aluminum extruder and fabricator with an in-house team of engineers capable of designing and manufacturing equipment to meet specific customer needs. Everything is manufactured out of a single location in Norton, Kansas, ensuring high quality and consistency.

Dolly carts have helped K-12 schools change lunch service from cafeteria-style to in-classroom as they make adjustments to accommodate COVID-19 guidelines.
