moraine park technical college Guiding Students, Building Community, Changing Lives
Being an adult student or making the decision to enroll in college isn’t easy. If any current Moraine Park student knows that, it’s Aurelio Rosas of Beaver Dam. Aurelio came to Wisconsin from Crystal City, TX in 2013. As a divorced father of two, he was looking for an opportunity to provide a life for his children. “I worked as a certified nursing assistant (CNA) in Texas,” he said. “I knew I wanted to further my education in healthcare, which is what brought me to Moraine Park.” He found a home in Beaver Dam with his brother, Armando, and enrolled at Moraine Park. He decided to pursue both the medical assistant and medical office support Technical Degrees. “I came to Moraine Park Technical College because I could obtain an affordable education in a short amount of time,” Aurelio said. “Also, the hands-on learning and one-on-one interaction with the instructors was important to me.” Life settled into a routine pace for Aurelio until his brother tragically died of a drug overdose. As a result, Aurelio ended up homeless and living in his car. He briefly relocated to Milwaukee to live with his sister but could barely afford the gas to get to and from school. “It was a horrible time,” he said. “I wanted to give up, but I knew my children needed me to keep going.” That’s when he connected with Karla Donohue, a counselor at Moraine Park’s Beaver Dam
campus. Together, they were able to find immediate solutions to help him get to class. “The College’s Foundation has emergency funding set aside to help students in situations just like Aurelio’s,” Karla said. “Once I met with him, we were able to work together to ease his life stresses so he could focus on his education and future.” Moraine Park support services, like counseling, are always free to students. “Connecting students to campus services helps to give students a sense of belonging, and they realize they aren’t alone,” Karla said. “I am impressed with Aurelio’s determination to overcome some major life barriers. He is a great example of strength.” The determination that Aurelio demonstrates in his personal life is also brought into the classroom and on campus. For this reason, he was named as the 2018-19 Moraine Park District Student Ambassador for the Wisconsin Technical College System. This role requires the student to actively serve as a member of student government, advocate for Moraine Park and the Wisconsin Technical College System as a whole, assist with college activities and events, and represent the student body within the community. Aurelio’s tenure in this position will soon end, and his final assignment as the Moraine Park student ambassador is to serve as a student speaker at the 2019 commencement ceremony.
Aurelio Rosas, the 2018-19 Moraine Park District Student Ambassador for the Wisconsin Technical College System “Aurelio is a great student and a deserving recipient of the Student Ambassador award,” Karla said. “Even more important, Aurelio is a great person. By nature, he is kind, compassionate, and relatable, which makes him a perfect fit for his selected career path.” Aurelio took advantage of career laddering opportunities at the College. He is a three-time Moraine Park graduate, and holds a medical billing specialist certificate, technical diplomas in medical assistance and medical office specialist, and is working towards his medical office
management associate’s degree. His overall goal is to become a registered nurse (RN). “I enjoy working in my community,” Aurelio said. “I have the God-given gift of speaking Spanish, and it makes me feel good knowing that I can help with translations if need be. Overall, I just like caring for people, regardless of who are they are, and I hope to continue to do so for years to come.” For more information on Moraine Park, visit morainepark.edu.

beaver dam unified school district Moving Forward
“Guiding students. Empowering futures.” The mission statement of the Beaver Dam Unified School District continuously challenges us to meet the ever-changing needs of our students and to ultimately prepare them as college and career-ready. After the community overwhelmingly supported a $48.9 referendum in November of 2016, we accepted an exciting challenge to renovate our existing high school and improve safety and security at all of our schools while remaining on-time and on-budget. Nearly two years later, we successfully completed that challenge. From the professional culinary-arts kitchen to the innovative fabrication lab; from the state-of-the-art field house to the oneof-a-kind agriculture area; from the updated auditorium to the acoustically-designed music suite; and from the large commons area with its natural light to the many “break-out” spaces scattered throughout the high school, Beaver Dam High School is truly an exceptional place to learn and work! Because the safety of our students and staff is a district priority, part of the referendum projects included secure entrances at the middle school and the six elementary schools. When the Wisconsin Department of Justice announced last spring that $100 million would be made available to support projects designed to improve K-12 school safety, the District applied
for (and was awarded) nearly $400,000 in grants to further invest in training and infrastructure to improve the safety and security of our schools. One of the requirements of the grant is a focus on student mental health and the integration of trauma-sensitive schools, and the State has made money available to help districts implement programs for students and training for staff. To further support the well-being of our students and staff, BDUSD has received a School Climate Transformation Grant, as well as a grant for School-Based Mental Health Services. The district has also established community partnerships to broaden the array of resources available to students in need of support. Mental health is one of the many facets of well-being identified by the Blue Zones Project, and several of the District’s schools have been recognized as Blue Zones Schools of Dodge County. In addition to the schools, the Beaver
Dam Unified School District was recently identified as a Blue Zones Project Worksite, which acknowledges the District’s dedication to the health and well-being of its staff. School districts across the state are challenged to fill their teaching vacancies, and BDUSD has been very fortunate to not only be able to attract teachers to the district, but also to retain highquality staff. The District is keenly aware of market conditions, and for 2018-19, many BDUSD teachers saw a salary increase of over 4%. The District also continues to work to make its benefits more affordable for its employees. While the District recognizes the importance of investing in its staff, it also acknowledges a fiscal responsibility to its taxpayers. Despite the $48.9 million debt from the referendum, the District adopted a mill rate of $9.39 for 2018-19, which is lower than most of its neighboring districts and lower than the state K-12 average of $9.46. The District continually looks for
cost-effective ways to provide unique learning opportunities for its students. This past year, the District secured grant funding for technical education equipment from the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development and the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation. We have also secured funding for our Early College Credit Program (formerly Youth Options Program), and we have applied for funding for Personal Electronic Computing Devices. As a school district, our success is measured by the growth and achievement of our students. Most of our elementary schools “Exceed” or “Significantly Exceed” Expectations according to the Wisconsin Department of Instruction (DPI) School Report Cards. Our high school continues to receive the U.S. News & World Report Silver Award. Last year, BDHS seniors were awarded more than $275K in local scholarships through the Beaver Dam High School Scholarship program and the Beaver Dam Scholarship Foundation. With the support of our community, we continue to lead the way in growth and achievement, and we welcome you to join us! If you would like to find out more about the opportunities within our BDUSD community and the excitement that infiltrates our district of destination and distinction, please visit our website at www.bdusd.org or contact the Educational Services Center at (920)885-7300 for more information.
Mischler’s Harley-Davidson & BMW Cruising into our 60th Year with BMW!
Mischler’s Harley-Davidson & BMW owner, Art Mischler said that after 61 years in business with Harley and 60 with BMW, he owes a debt of gratitude to his staff, who work hard to keep their customers happy. “We are a small dealership so I manage the overall function of the store, but each of my staff members help me keep every area running smoothly.” Art said. His son Eric is in the sales and parts department and son Dan works as a technician in the service department and also helps in other areas. The family owned business was started by Art’s father, Bill, in 1958. The business has changed over the years as Harley Davidson & BMW has expanded all aspects for the dealership and customers. Product quality and availability is at its best. The staff is continuously
searching for ways to improve customer satisfaction and offer the latest state of the art equipment. Throughout the year, employees also attend Harley and BMW seminars across the country, to become certified on the latest technology and current information regarding Harley and BMW cycles and merchandise.

Blue Zones Project Working for Well-Being
Since 2009, the unemployment rate in Dodge County has fallen steadily. Today, “Help Wanted” signs line downtown and industrial areas in communities across the county. A 2015 report from the State of Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development reported that businesses will be competing not only with each other for workers with similar skills, but also with employees of other disciplines. This highlights the versatility and cross-discipline emphasis in today’s workforce with 91 percent of Millennials expecting to stay in a job for less than three years, according to the Future Workplace “Multiple Generations @ Work” survey of 1,189 employees and 150 managers. Mindful of this, worksites throughout Dodge County are partnering with Blue Zones Project® to attract and maintain high quality, talented applicants and to do their part in improving the well-being of employees. Blue Zones Project (BZP) is a community-wide well-being initiative that has been brought to Dodge County by Beaver Dam Community Hospitals, Inc. The project focuses on impacting people, places, and policy so that healthy choices are easier for everyone. Worksites in Dodge County are making healthier choices easier by promoting the Blue Zones Project Power 9® principles which include Moving Naturally, Having the Right Outlook, Eating Wisely, and Connecting with others. To date, 16 worksites in Dodge County have earned the designation of Blue Zones Project Approved™ worksite. Each of these employers has demonstrated leadership in improving the lives of their employees as well as the bottom line of the business. The first worksite to achieve this designation was Dodge County’s BZP project sponsor, Beaver Dam Community Hospital, Inc. (BDCH). As one of the county’s largest employers, BDCH
has first-hand knowledge of the importance of well-being for individual health. With a mission of delivering excellence across a continuum of services and with the vision of being the regional destination for health care, BDCH sponsored Blue Zones Project to reduce chronic, preventable illnesses and empower patients to take charge of their own well-being. By going beyond diagnosis and treatment of disease to support life choices that benefit well-being, Beaver Dam Community Hospital is leading the way in reducing healthcare costs and creating a healthier, happier Dodge County. Horicon Bank, with branches located in three Blue Zones Project demonstration communities in Dodge County, is also enthusiastic about improving employee well-being. Employees had the opportunity to participate in Purpose Workshops during work hours, helping them to identify their gifts and individual purpose so that they can live and work with greater meaning and direction. Horicon Bank continues to develop innovative ways to engage employees and improve well-being. Large and influential employers across the county including John Deere Horicon Works, Clearview, Inter-Quest, Dodge County, and multiple school districts are among the growing list of employers demonstrating how much they care about their employees and their well-being by partnering with Blue Zones Project.
If you are an employee at a Blue Zones Project Approved worksite and healthier choices are now easier, we want to hear about it. Submit your story at go.bluezonesproject.com/ dodgecountystories for a chance to win a $100 gift card to Rechek’s Food Pride or Mayville Piggly Wiggly, Dodge County’s Blue Zones Project Approved grocery stores.

I am a start-up photography business whose first camera was from a Bazooka Bubble Gum wrappers I saved. I saw two turkeys sunning themselves on a silo, took my mom’s monocular and shot my first telephoto picture. Mailed my camera to Bazooka for development and when my dad saw my pictures he asked “who taught you how to do this?” My response “nobody daddy”. That Christmas Santa (a.k.a. Dad) game me my first REAL CAMERA, a Nikon. Mrs. Claus (a.k.a. Mom) gave me the tripod. I was eight years old.

JRC ENTERPRISES
Auto Repair & Machine Shop | Columbus Original NAPA Auto Center JRC is the largest independent full service auto repair in the Columbus area. We offer quality service with an emphasis on customer service which was the way we started our business 29 years ago and our current customers are noticing it. We have an accumulative of over 45 years of ASE endorsed industry service. We have a full time staff, but also part time employees with many years of experience. JRC is the only shop in the Columbus area that is AAA endorsed. This AAA endorsement can only be given to shops that have high customer satisfaction ratings. JRC is the Original Napa Auto Care Center in Columbus. We can make small repairs such as wiper blades, burned out light bulbs and have demonstrated too many customers that we can repair vehicles that other shops have not been able to fix right the first time. We pride ourselves in being able to do all repairs at our facility, while other shops may have to sublet portions of the vehicle service work. For example, tires do wear out, but in some instances, they get worn out due to worn suspension and misalignment. Also, a lot of new vehicles with stability control need special care when doing alignments. Here at JRC we have the most current alignment equipment to do an alignment, as the manufacture requires. We will diagnose your vehicle, educate and explain to you, as needed, our findings and give you a quote on the repairs. We have seven courtesy vehicles that can be used by you, the customer, while your work is being performed. The only restrictions are age; you must have auto insurance and replace the fuel that you use. Customers working in other towns find this to be a great value to them. We are open at 7:30 a.m. for vehicle drop off, and vehicles can be picked up after your work hours. We are happy to help with arranging the return of your vehicle. We accept Visa, Discover and MasterCard. We offer special deals where you can receive a free tire rotation after two oil changes. We do repairs on

Spray Tech
How can you make your home more energy efficient? By upgrading your home’s insulation with Spray Tech! Knowing the benefits that spray foam insulation can provide for your home and family, spray insulation is a far better option than other types of insulation.
Spray foam insulation is a powerful insulator and very efficient at keeping heat in or out of a structure. It provides an air tight seal, for better efficiency and heating costs. Over time, your house expands and contracts, so will the foam insulation, which eliminates cracks and spaces for warm air to escape. And spray insulation is also a great moisture barrier so if flooding occurs, it will not absorb water like other materials. Also, spray foam can deter mold, has a long life
span and is eco-friendly. There are two types of spray foam insulation – open cell and closed cell. Spray Tech offers both. Open cell spray foam is more dense than closed-cell spray foam insulation and is spongy to touch, providing an effective sound barrier and is less expensive than closed cell. Closed cell insulation, while more expensive is more efficient at keeping heat in or out of a structure. For more information and details call Lester of Spray Tech in Reeseville, at 920-988-3082. Set up an appointment and he will take a look at your insulation project, whether it be for your home, garage, shop, attic, basement or an outdoor structure. Lester will explain what would work best for your needs and give you a FREE estimate.

duffy grain, inc. Between our Columbus and Marshall locations, we have over 4.5 million bushels of storage space, which allows us to be in the grain receiving and shipping business year around, serving as a link between grain producer and end user.
Duffy Bros., Inc was established in 1928. The business focused on hauling milk for area farmers, and later branched out into livestock hauling. Over time, the focus of the business shifted toward operating as a grain elevator to help local cash crop farmers find a market for their grain. Duffy Grain, Inc. was established in 1976. In 2002, a second location was built near Marshall to reach new markets by rail.
We are a price neutral business, so we can meet the needs of producers and end users in a way that makes both more profitable. Our main goal is to help farmers consistently make a profit. Profitable farming brings more money from the market into our community making it a stronger community.
Duffy Grain is licensed by the state of Wisconsin as a grain dealer and by the federal government as a grain warehouse keeper. We offer our customers several marketing options including forward price contracting, minimum price contracts, deferred price contracts and grain storage. We also offer grain drying and we operate a fleet of trucks that allow us to offer grain-hauling services to our customers.

Columbus community hospital Veronica Minier, MD – A life of adventure leads her home to Wisconsin
As a child growing up in Wisconsin, Veronica Minier, MD tagged along with her mother, who spent the weekends on call as a home health nurse. It wasn’t long after that she decided to pursue a career in medicine. “I’ve always wanted to practice in rural medicine,” said Dr. Minier, who has practiced in Wisconsin since 2006 and joined the Prairie Ridge Health Clinic in Columbus in February of this year. Over the years her medical experiences outside of Wisconsin also contributed to her desire to become a family practice physician in a rural setting. “I once shadowed a physician in Tennessee who ran his own clinic. He did everything from x-rays to deliveries to pharmacy,” she explained. Dr. Minier started her medical career as a locum, which allowed her to travel. “I like adventure,” she explained. “As a locum, I was able to go to six different cities in Alaska, which was interesting and fun. When I was in Nome, we also went to some villages without electricity.” In addition, Dr. Minier traveled to Africa to do mission work. It is there where she experienced the challenge of working in conditions with limited resources and a lack of technology. Dr. Minier agrees that her travels have given her experiences that other physicians may not have, but what she enjoyed the most was caring for patients in a close knit community. “I like
small towns where you have the opportunity to get to know the families. I enjoy delivering babies and seeing the children grow up and working with the family.” Someday Dr. Minier hopes to go back to traveling and doing mission work, but for now she is happy being in Wisconsin. “I love hiking and spending time with my family,” she said. Dr. Minier specializes in family medicine with obstetrics and is certified in waterbirths. She received her Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Southern Adventist University in Tennessee and her Medical Degree from Loma Linda University School of Medicine in California. She completed her residency in family medicine at the Bakersfield Family Practice – Kern Medical Center in California and her fellowship in obstetrics and gynecology at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, San Bernardino County Hospital, and Riverside County Regional Medical Center in Southern California. Patients may schedule an appointment with Dr. Minier by calling the Prairie Ridge Health Clinic at 920-623-1200. The Prairie Ridge Health Clinic accepts most major insurances including Unity, Dean Health Plan, Physicians Plus, Blue Cross Blue Shield, The Alliance, WEA, and United Healthcare.

UWPG UWGP began production of fuel ethanol from corn nearly 15 years ago in April of 2005. We currently procure about 20 million bushel of corn per year from local producers and dealers to produce 60 million gallons of renewable fuel each year. The starch portion of the corn kernel is used to make the fuel ethanol while the nutrients from the kernel are preserved in the distillers feed and other co-products we sell. In addition to ethanol, UWGP produces about 300 ton of distillers feed, 100 ton of the high protein yeast ingredients (A+ProYeast), and 60,000
pounds of crude corn oil per day. UWGP ownership consists of over 900 member investors and employs 47 full-time employees. We are proud to be a part of this community and be able to add value to the agricultural business economy while feeding and fueling America. Look for ethanol blends such as E15, unleaded 88, E20, E30, and E85 when you pull up to the gas pump and be sure you grab the nozzle that will get you higher octane for a lower price while supporting rural America and reducing harmful tailpipe emissions. It’s truly a win for everybody!

LILAC FURNITURE GALLERY Celebrating 25 Years
Providing Quality Amish-made Heirloom Furniture & Handcrafted Wood Crafts 25 years, as we know, time has a way of getting away. As I have thought about it, having discovered that it is already 25 years that the decision was made to venture into woodworking.
• Then on March 21, 2007 there was a real setback, when fire burned the shop to the ground. With a small amount of items left in outside storage, we had some to setup in the house and started up again. That following weekend.
After some years of thinking about it and trying to do some pieces in the evenings and Saturday, I knew one cannot do it right, while working away from home five days a week, one cannot do two full time jobs right, one job is neglected or both.
• In fall of 2007 after some time of planning, a new building was started. With much rain, it slowed the time of getting the foundation and floor poured. They got building enclosed first of November, with snow early before we got roofing done.
History • Spring of 1994 I started staying home. We had been doing some sweetcorn and some other produces besides the woodworking, which kept us busy. • In 1995 we built a new shop with more space an a display area and kept on working as we could, which is another story.
• January 17, 2008 we got it to where we moved furniture in, a day before, it got bitter cold. A winter not to be forgotten to soon with around 98” of snow fall. And we were glad for that, as we were all tired and ready for a break. We than did work on doing the finish work afterwards. The siding outside and the lights and trim inside.
Things got better with the economy booming, we were very busy. While we tried to make things and have more items available we expanded our display.
Which brings us to 2019 All we can say is what a Merciful Amazing God we have the privilege to serve and be called his children.

widmer’s cheese cellars In Wisconsin, the cheese-making legacy runs deep and examples of third-and fourth generation cheese makers carrying on the family tradition are common. Joe Widmer, of Widmer’s Cheese Cellars in tiny Theresa, Wisconsin, is one such thirdgeneration example. Born into the craft and raised with his six siblings in their home above the cheese plant, Widmer has succeeded in building the business with a combination of strict adherence to tradition and savvy marketing. Widmer’s best known for producing Brick cheese and traditional stirred-curd Colby, both Wisconsin originals created in small towns nearby. In 2017 & 2018 Widmer’s won Blue Ribbons for ACS Aged Brick Spread and
that his grandfather used to press the whey from the cheese in their forms. Joe is credited as being the only cheese-maker in the country to continue to use real bricks as part of the make procedure. Today, Widmer’s cheeses are sold from coast to coast. The company has 22 employees, some who have worked there since Joe was in grade school. Widmer’s product line has expanded to include many flavored variations on Colby and Cheddar, as well as convenience products such as natural Aged Brick Cheese Spread. While Widmer is considering additional product development, for now, Joe says “We’ll keep doing things the traditional way…producing some of the best cheeses in the country!”
ACS Aged Brick Cheese. Joe carries on Widmer’s traditional Brick production making 385,000 lbs a year. He still uses the same open vats in the 15,000 sq. ft. facility that his grandfather bought in 1922. In 2016 they added another 4,360 square feet. And, he still uses the same well-worn bricks

4 strategies to help small and medium-sized businesses grow Did you know that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are the driving force of our country’s economy, and as such, their growth and prosperity are of the utmost priority. There are four main strategies that promote business growth.
1 2 3 4
Be customer-centric. Understanding and satisfying the needs of your customers is without a doubt the most important key to success. This builds customer loyalty and allows you to attract new clients. Build a winning team. Hire qualified employees or train your existing personnel. This will allow you to delegate important responsibilities and push your business’ limits.
Stay ahead of the pack. Understanding the needs of your customers is one thing; being able to fill them another. Innovation is crucial in adapting your business to the needs and demands of your clients. Invest to be the best. Increasing production capacity by purchasing new equipment and improving efficiency by adopting new technologies are investments that are often necessary for a SME to grow.
It’s worth noting that other strategies — such as e-commerce, partnerships with other businesses and developing new markets — can also contribute to SME growth.

Chris’ Floral & Gifts June 1st, 2018 marked the start of Chris’ Floral & Gifts 20th year in business. When the opportunity to keep a local business open arose, Chris took it and has been running a successful floral and gift shop ever since. With more and more people buying off the internet, Chris’ Floral has been taking care of people with her own personal care. You may order off the web but those companies don’t take into consideration that we have hot and freezing cold weather in our area. You place an order on the web and it might get to Chris’ Floral’s designing table to make and deliver when someone is home, but most likely a delivery service will drop a box with flowers and an empty vase at your door step--no matter what the weather is. Why not call a “real florist” who will take special care in getting your flowers and plants delivered alive to your loved one. Chris’ Floral offers a full line of sympathy stones, benches and angels, along with gifts for
birthdays, anniversaries, inspirational thoughts and garden decor. They can help find the perfect gift for every occasion. They also will custom make silk floral arrangements and decor, and gift baskets of any theme. Chris’ Floral & Gifts delivers all around the area including Markesan, Green Lake, Ripon, Princeton, Cambria, Randolph, Fox Lake, Waupun and in between. Something a little different at Chris’ is that they rent out tuxedos and suits for prom, weddings and any other special day you have planned. Call for an appointment for a fitting or to consult with your formalwear needs. Let Chris’ Floral help with any special occasion and tuxedo rental needs. Give a call at 920398-2641.

Flyway Mutual Insurance Company was formed in Waupun March 13, 1874 under the original name of Waupun Farmer’s Mutual Insurance Company; and on June 12, 1874 the business began. Fond du Lac, Dodge, & Green Lake were the first counties the company wrote business. Town Mutuals were started by rural property owners who could not afford insurance due to high premiums charged for the rural location of their property. Stock insurance carriers felt if a rural fire started it would be a total loss due to the time it took to get to the scene and the prices reflected this thought process. These community founded insurance companies were organized and continue to operate under the supervision of a Board of Directors elected by the company policyholders. Officers often know the policyholders personally because they spend their everyday lives among the policyholders. The concept of neighbor insuring neighbor was born. Our company wrote only fire coverage until 1960 when extended coverage was added. May 14, 1969 started the package policy. Our company now offered liability and property protection. Flyway Mutual has continued to grow with various mergers over the years. In 1971 Waupun Farmers Mutual Insurance Company and Ripon Town Mutual merged, with the company renamed Waupun-Ripon Mutual Insurance Company. November 1974 WaupunRipon Mutual and Town of Trenton Mutual
merged. The Company renamed to WaupunRipon-Trenton Mutual Insurance Company. In March of 1983, the name was changed to Flyway Mutual Insurance Company. The name is derived from the location to the Horicon Marsh migration pattern. In 1987, Beaver Dam-Woodland-Burnett Mutual Insurance merged into Flyway. The last merger was on March 21, 2012, at the Annual Meeting, Flyway Mutual Insurance Company members voted in favor of a merger with Rosendale Mutual Insurance Company effective April 1, 2012. Flyway Mutual Insurance Company offers insurance for Farm, Home, Mobile Home, Renters, and Fire. Currently we write coverage in twelve counties in the State of Wisconsin: Adams, Columbia, Dodge, Fond du Lac, Green Lake, Jefferson, Marquette, Sheboygan, Washington, Waukesha, Waushara, and Winnebago. The office staff consists of Ramona Monacelli as Manager, Cheryl Ziemke as Underwriter, and Carol Dillie as Office Assistant. The Rosendale Insurance Agency, LLC was acquired in 2012 with the Rosendale Merger. The agency offers Auto and Personal Umbrella. The office staff members are each licensed to quote your insurance needs. Our mission is to provide quality insurance services, with a personal touch; at an economical price, to the communities in our area. Our goal is to exceed our policyholder’s expectations in servicing the policies that insure their homes, farms, dwellings and other properties.

FILTERS, “AFTERMARKET” WHEN IT COMES TO
IS A DIRTY WORD.
PROTECT YOUR ENGINE AND OPTIMIZE PERFORMANCE WITH GENUINE NEW HOLLAND FILTERS. Protecting your engine with clean fuel is imperative for optimal performance. Today’s Tier 4-certified engines can be compromised by contaminants as small as 2 microns – that’s smaller than a red blood cell. Aftermarket filters allow as many a 16-times more particles to infiltrate your engine, while genuine New Holland filters use MicroLoc™ media technology to remove 99.7% of contaminants. Genuine New Holland lubricants and filters are engineered for performance. Discover the difference for yourself. Contact us today for more information.
