View Photos

Holden, LA – Ferrara Fire Apparatus, Inc., America’s premier custom fire apparatus manufacturer, has finished expansion and renovation of their new fire apparatus delivery center.  The new delivery center is over twice the size of the previous facility and has three conference rooms at the customers’ disposal.  Architecturally appealing, the building is styled after a 19th century fire house with massive arched door ways, double bi-fold doors, copper downspouts and gas lights.  The conference rooms are equipped with wireless internet access, printer and phones. Even though Ferrara’s customers may be away from the office, they are still able to stay connected and work from their temporary office.  The delivery center is climate controlled for year round comfort and isolated from the noise that accompanies fire truck manufacturing.  Customers are able to thoroughly inspect their apparatus in a quiet, focused atmosphere.

Ferrara Fire Apparatus provides a complete line of fire and emergency vehicles, including their Inferno, Igniter, Ember and Intruder 2 custom chassis; pumpers and tankers; rear and mid-mount aerial ladders and platforms; rescue and incident command vehicles; Inundator industrial apparatus, law enforcement vehicles and the Strong Arm fire rescue vehicle.  A leading safety innovator in the industry, Ferrara takes pride in offering such firefighter safety items as On-Site Tilt Table Testing, Independent Front Suspension, Complete Airbag Protection, SmartWheel steering systems, and Crash Tested Cabs and Bodies.  To date, Ferrara is the only fire apparatus manufacturer to load test their fire body to the same standard as the personnel cab.
