SVI Trucks

SVI Trucks is a fire apparatus manufacturer located in Fort Collins, Colorado.
SVI's origins can be traced back to the Super Vacuum Manufacturing Company, which built ventilation fans. In 1971, Super Vac built its first rescue truck for a local department. SVI Trucks later became a separate division of Super Vac.
SVI concentrates on specialized rescue, command and hazmat trucks, although they also build pumpers, tankers and brush trucks on commercial and custom chassis; as well rebuilding and refurbishing older trucks. It remains a division of Super Vac Industries; other Super Vac divisions include fan maker Super Vac and lighting tower maker Command Light.
