JOHN IS STILL ACTIVE.
STILL AVAILABLE.
STILL SOLVING PROBLEMS.
John K. Kalua’s winery work is not limited to the historical archive. Winery owners and operators can still bring John an equipment, process, mechanical, fabrication or operational problem for review today.
You do not need to know the solution. Start by telling him what is not working, what needs to work differently or what your operation needs to accomplish.

WINERY SERVICES & SOLUTIONS
Practical support for the equipment, systems and operational problems wineries deal with every day.
PARTS & MODIFICATIONS
Evaluate difficult-to-source or obsolete components and determine whether repair, modification, adaptation or custom fabrication provides an appropriate solution.
CUSTOM FABRICATION & BUILDING
When an appropriate solution cannot simply be purchased, NuTrend can develop and fabricate practical equipment, components, modifications and custom solutions for the application.
CONSULTING & PROBLEM SOLVING
Bring John the problem.
NuTrend can evaluate an equipment, process, mechanical or operational challenge, identify what is actually preventing the desired result, and help determine a practical path forward.
Consulting & problem solving
YOU DON’T HAVE TO KNOW THE SOLUTION.
START WITH THE PROBLEM.
Winery owners and operators do not need to arrive with specifications or a predetermined solution. They can bring NuTrend:
- Equipment that isn’t working correctly
- A component that is obsolete or unavailable
- An inefficient process or recurring bottleneck
- Equipment that needs modification
- An unusual mechanical or operational problem
- An idea for something they need but cannot find commercially
John’s role is to understand what needs to happen before deciding what should be built, repaired, changed or recommended.
