"Meat" Us in Milwaukee: Streamline Every Stage of Processing with Innovative Solutions at AAMP 2026

"Meat" Us in Milwaukee: Streamline Every Stage of Processing with Innovative Solutions at AAMP 2026

Fire up the smokers and sharpen those knives—the biggest event in the meat industry is headed to Brew City in the Cheese State! From July 9-11, 2026, the 87th American Convention of Meat Processors & Suppliers' Exhibition (AAMP) is taking over Milwaukee, WI. You’d better believe New Age Industrial is bringing the heat to Booth #635.

If you’re in the business of high-quality cuts and top-tier processing, you know the secret sauce isn't just in the seasoning—it’s in the workflow. We’re inviting you to stop by the Wisconsin Center, say hello, and see why our equipment is the heavy-duty backbone of meat rooms, butcher shops, and creameries nationwide.

The New Age Advantage: Built for the Real World

Smokehouse Sticks - Y-Shaped - Heavy Duty AluminumWhy do meat and dairy processors across the country rely on New Age every single day? We solve the unique environmental challenges of the food room with HACCP-friendly designs.

  • Rust-Proof & Brine-Resistant: Unlike steel that pits and flakes, our high-tensile, primary-grade aluminum is naturally resistant to rust, corrosion, moisture, blood, and salt. Even after years of heavy washdowns, your equipment stays pristine.
  • Gold-Standard Sanitation: Aluminum is non-porous and easy to sanitize, helping you maintain a sterile facility and pass USDA/FDA inspections with confidence.
  • Dairy & Cheese Grade: Being in Wisconsin, we know cheese! Our aluminum is ideal for high-moisture aging rooms and brine tanks, as it won't succumb to the corrosive effects of whey or salt.
  • American-Made Toughness: Manufactured in Norton, Kansas, our products are over-engineered for a higher ROI. Plus, we offer specialized caster upgrades, including stainless steel casters for corrosive environments and high-temp casters for smokehouses and heat-intensive applications.
