MASON, OHIO (May 19, 2014) —Witt Industries recently partnered with the Charlotte Knights minor league baseball team in Charlotte, North Carolina to provide custom logo receptacles for the new $54 million BB&T Ballpark, which opened in Spring 2014. The 10,200 fan capacity ballpark is home to the Charlotte Knights, the Triple-A affiliate of the Chicago White Sox. Witt custom designed logo waste and recycling receptacles for the team to add to the atmosphere of the new ballpark. 

Witt Industries worked with the Knights to find a customized solution that also incorporated their recycling goals. A total of 200 receptacles were selected to provide waste and recycling service to the ballpark. Sixty custom logo waste and sixty recycling units are in the concourse areas of the ballpark, while the suites are outfitted with 40 aluminum indoor waste receptacles and 40 aluminum recycling receptacles. The overall look adds to the ambiance at the ballpark while keeping the facility clean and promoting recycling at the ballpark. 

“We chose to work with Witt because they are the leading supplier of custom stadium receptacles in the industry and have a reputation for excellent customer service,” said Mark McKinnon, Director of Stadium Operations. “We are very pleased with the receptacles we received and enjoyed working with Witt,” added McKinnon. 

Witt Industries has been providing custom logo solutions for stadiums, ballparks, arenas, municipalities and retail venues for several decades. These products are made in the USA from recycled content steel and designed for durability. 

“Witt Industries is honored to be a part of the success of BB&T Ballpark and the Charlotte Knights with the addition of our custom logo waste receptacle and recycling receptacles,” said John Winfield, National Sales Manager at Witt Industries. “We are proud to be the leading provider of custom stadium receptacles across the nation,” added Winfield.
