Pierce to feature electric fire truck at FDIC 2022

Pierce Manufacturing, announced it will showcase an extensive selection of the latest standout fire apparatus and technology developments at the Fire Department Instructors Conference (FDIC) in Indianapolis, Indiana, April 28-30, 2022. A main feature will be North America’s first-in-service and fully US manufactured electric fire truck – the Pierce Volterra Pumper.

Attendees will find Pierce’s display in the north end zone of Lucas Oil Stadium (booth #8807),
which will feature 14 fire trucks and interactive opportunities to learn about the latest product
and technology innovations.

“The past year has been monumental for our company in advancing our objective to create the most progressive solutions in fire apparatus safety and efficiency,” said Lisa Barwick, Vice President of marketing for Pierce’s Fire and Emergency Segment. “We’re excited to welcome Fire Chief Steven Davis from The City of Madison Fire Department and EnTech Solutions to our 2022 FDIC booth. Visitors will have the opportunity to hear first-hand from these representatives about the performance of the Pierce Volterra electric pumper, its charging infrastructure, and the impact on reducing emissions and improving firefighter safety; all with no compromise on features, performance or functionality.”

Show attendees will not want to miss Pierce’s product and technology introductions taking place during an opening announcement on Thursday, April 28 at 10:00 am (EDT) in Pierce’s booth in Lucas Oil Stadium (booth #8807).

Barwick continued, “The launch and North American placement of our new Pierce Volterra electric vehicle was an incredibly important event for our company, but certainly not the only Pierce innovation which has taken place in recent years. In our FDIC 2022 booth, we’re eager to showcase and help visitors learn more about the many advancements which have been made available as standard or custom features on some of our most in-demand fire apparatus.”
