Taking Care of Newstripe Customers / Q&A with Andy Ducey

Between answering customer calls, managing our online chat, and working on product orders, we caught up with Account Executive Andy Ducey to learn how he makes sure Newstripe customers and dealers have a great experience working with us.

What is it like working at Newstripe?

Newstripe is a family-run company that manufactures great products right here in America and our customers are the best. I love helping them find solutions for their striping, industrial recycling, and stenciling needs. From when I get here in the morning to when I leave at the end of the day, I am constantly communicating with customers from all over the country. It’s exciting, I constantly get to meet new people, and every day is an adventure.

How is Newstripe unique in a competitive marketplace?

Our team is creative, responsive, and entrepreneurial. As a small family-run company, we are proud of our ability to stay focused on our customers and building quality products that satisfy real needs in the marketplace. While we started out in the pavement striping business 40 years ago, we have expanded into new product categories like athletic field stripers, industrial recycling products, and our extremely durable PolyTough plastic stencils.

I would also like to mention that, unlike many of our competitors, we manufacture all our products right here in Aurora, Colorado. It is great to walk back into the factory and see raw sheets of metal coming in the back door and finished products being boxed up to ship out to customers. Everything is done locally and in a high quality way.

Do you have a favorite Newstripe product?

While I enjoy talking with customers about all of our products, I especially like talking about our AeroVent 1X aerosol can disposal machine. It is loaded with great safety features like the Viz-a-Ball indicator and the processed can counter, and it is far better than competitive products from New Pig, Just Rite, and America Gas. In addition, our Safe2Vent Filter used on the AeroVent is the best in the marketplace for removing harmful gases from used aerosol cans.

Any closing thoughts you would like to share?

I want to thank the entire Newstripe team for their hard work. They are like family to me, and they help me shine when I’m interacting with customers. I would also like to thank our loyal customers for their business and for making each day at work so fun and exciting.

In-Depth Comparison and Contrast

The key distinction between these two models of baseball field equipment lies with the vehicle used — the 3-Point Hitch model requires a tractor with a 3-point hitch, catering to those who require precise control and power for intensive field maintenance. It’s particularly suitable for larger or professional sports facilities where field conditions must meet exacting standards.

Conversely, the Tow Behind model is designed for versatility and ease of use, catering to a broader audience. It can be employed by schools, community centers, and small sports clubs where access to specialized tractors may be limited or nonexistent. This baseball field equipment model offers a practical solution without compromising the quality of field maintenance.

Who Should Choose What Baseball Field Equipment?

  • For Large or Professional Facilities: The DirtDoctor 3-Point Hitch Infield Drag & Groomer is the go-to choice for larger facilities or those requiring the highest level of precision and control in their maintenance routines. It requires a 3-point hitch tractor. Its robust construction and precision capabilities make it a worthy investment for maintaining a professional-grade baseball field.
  • For Smaller Facilities: The DirtDoctor Tow Behind Infield Drag & Groomer offers an excellent balance of performance and convenience. It is especially beneficial for smaller facilities that still seek to maintain a high-quality field while using any vehicle to attach it to.

Conclusion

The maintenance of a baseball field plays a pivotal role in the safety and enjoyment of the game. Choosing between the DirtDoctor 3-Point Hitch Infield Drag & Groomer and the DirtDoctor Tow Behind Infield Drag & Groomer baseball field equipment comes down to the vehicle you will be using to pull it. Each model provides distinct advantages, with the 3-Point Hitch model delivering precision and durability, requiring a 3-point hitch tractor, while the Tow Behind model offers unparalleled flexibility.

By selecting the right baseball field equipment that aligns with your maintenance goals and operational capabilities, line striping and field maintenance companies can ensure their baseball fields are not just visually appealing but also provide a safe, high-performance playing surface for athletes and enthusiasts alike.
