Rescue 1, was launched in 1985 and quickly became the premier quality manufacturer of Custom Heavy Rescue Apparatus. PL Custom Emergency Vehicles, the parent company of Rescue 1, has been manufacturing emergency vehicles since 1946. Rescue 1 was initially marketed to Fire & Rescue Departments in the Northeast. National distribution of Rescue 1 began in the late 1990’s to accommodate increased prod

uct demand. All rescue body layouts are custom designed for each individual fire department's requirements, supporting their needs for Extrication, Fire Support, Fire Command, Communications, Hazmat, Air and Lighting, etc. Rescue 1 constructs all rescue apparatus to comply with the latest NFPA standards. Rescue 1 specializes in state of the art rescue vehicles. The engineering and production staff dedicate 100% of their resources to the design and manufacture of the BEST rescue units available. Rescue 1, a small manufacturer by design, is able to focus on the customer’s specialized needs. Production schedules are tailored to permit individual Fire Departments to participate in the final design and layout of their Rescue Unit while it is in manufacturing. Rescue 1 maintains a manufacturing facility in Manasquan, New Jersey, less than an hour from a major airport, making vehicle inspection trips easy. This is especially important during the tool mounting phase.

Following the devastation in the wake of Hurricane Helene, we'd love to shed a light on some fantastic response efforts from our local New Jersey State Police and NJ-TF1. They are currently on scene in North Carolina providing much needed assistance to the locals being affected by the storm aftermath. Seeing our PL Custom / Rescue 1 Crew Carrier on scene reminds us of why we build these vehicles for our communities.
From New Jersey State Police:
NJ-TF1 Continues Critical Operations in North Carolina
NJ-TF1 remains on the ground in some of the hardest-hit areas of North Carolina in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. As anticipated, the team is facing challenging conditions, with strong winds, heavy rainfall, and treacherous terrain in the mountainous regions. Despite these obstacles, the team has been conducting wide area searches and water rescue operations, meticulously covering areas devastated by historic flooding.
The team is performing exceptionally well and currently has no unmet needs. We are grateful for your continued thoughts and prayers for those affected, as well as your unwavering support for the families and employers of our team members.
