Business Wire
Arnprior Fire Trucks Corp. (“AFTC”) is pleased to announce that
they have been awarded the contract for the design and manufacture
of another tandem tanker apparatus. North Grenville Fire Services
awarded the tender to AFTC to be completed and delivered in late
summer 2012. Manufacturing of the truck will be at the company’s
state-of-the art plant in Arnprior, Ontario.
“We are confident that AFTC will build us an excellent truck.
The team of builders in Arnprior is skilled and offer outstanding
quality control measures in their trucks. With local service and
support North Grenville Fire Service will have a reliable apparatus
that will be safe and serve the community for years to come,” said
Paul Hutt, Fire Chief of North Grenville Fire Services.
AFTC boasts high end CNC machining capabilities, laser cutters,
laser welders and other precision machinery along with a very
experienced manufacturing team. The plant operates to the high
AS9100 Aerospace quality standards. AFTC shares the Plaintree
resources of almost 100 employees including professional engineers,
draftsmen, CAD operators, certified welders and support staff.
“Fire departments now have an alternative option when it comes
to service and quality products. Our goal is to provide the best
service and support locally and nationally. AFTC still manufactures
all possible components from tanks to pump boxes. We are truly a
custom builder and not just an assembly plant,” said Graeme Cross,
Business Development Manager for Arnprior Fire Trucks Corp.
Arnprior Fire Trucks Corp.
(www.arnpriorfiretrucks.net) was formed with
the key employees of Seagrave Canada (formerly Almonte Fire Trucks)
and they will continue building fire apparatus with the pride and
