MTECH designs and manufactures water storage and pumping systems for applications in the fire service and pest control industries. We build everything from five gallon chemical storage tanks and 5,000-gallon fire truck water tanks, to fire truck bodies and storage compartments -- all out of copolymer polypropylene plastic. Welded copolymer is highly impact resistant, durable, non-corrosive and light weight. From our facility in Chico, California, MTECH designs and manufactures products that are built to last.
MTECH's PolyTough™ fire truck bodies are the go-to option for firefighters wanting light weight, durability and strength-all in a corrosion-proof package. Every MTECH truck body is built of gloss-white copolymer polypropylene, a material that is extremely strong, dent-resistant and able to withstand expansive temperature swings. The single biggest question we hear when talking to potential customers about our copolymer bodies is, "Won't they melt in a fire?" The answer is simple: only after your tires, lighting and many other parts of the truck have already been liquified.

The subframe and body transferred to the Chevy with minimal modifications, and now...
