OCALA, Fla. – July 27, 2018 – E-ONE, a subsidiary of REV Group (NYSE: REVG) and a global leader in emergency response vehicles, is proud to announce the new TITAN 4x4 Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) vehicle has met or exceeded expectations in all categories of third-party advanced product testing.
In accordance with NFPA 414 (Standard for Aircraft Rescue and Fire-Fighting Vehicles), all newly-designed vehicles must undergo a series of (34) prototype tests followed by (13) operational tests for each production unit to validate compliance with industry recognized standards. Standardized test procedures as documented in NFPA 414 are followed to achieve repeatable results and prove the engineering design concepts.
The new E-ONE TITAN® 4x4 ARFF underwent testing at the Navistar Proving Ground in New Carlisle, IN, which included dynamic stability, brake system, vehicle accelerated durability, as well as engine performance and cooling testing.
Additional testing of the E-ONE TITAN® 4x4 ARFF was completed at the Center for Advanced Product Evaluation (CAPE). This included cab crashworthiness testing as well as seats and seatbelt anchor testing. These tests were based on the requirements of the ECE-R29 (Uniform Provisions Concerning the Approval of Vehicles with Regard to the Protection of the Occupants of the Cab of a Commercial Vehicle), SAE J2420 (COE Frontal Strength Evaluation), SAE J2422 (Cab Roof Strength Evaluation) and FMVSS 207/210.
The E-ONE cab is widely recognized as the strongest in the industry, and in testing, the new TITAN passed the Cab Roof Strength Evaluation at twice the required loading of the front axle capacity.
“The fact that the new TITAN has passed all the required testing to date without issue is a testament to the talented and dedicated design and engineering teams at E-ONE,” said Raff McDougall, Director of Engineering for E-ONE.
The new E-ONE TITAN® 4x4 passed testing in the following areas:
Matt Reda, International ARFF Product Manager for E-ONE commented, “These tests represent a major commitment in time and investment for us but are absolutely necessary to ensure the safest and most reliable performance for our customers.”
The new TITAN delivers on safety, performance and functional design -- providing a product that allows E-ONE customers a more advanced way to respond.

PAVIX: Proven Winner for All Airport Concrete Infrastructure
International Chem-Crete Corporation (ICC) manufactures and sells PAVIX, a unique line of crystalline waterproofing products that penetrate into the surface of cured concrete to fill and seal pores and capillary voids, creating a long lasting protective zone within the concrete substrate.
Once concrete is treated, water is prevented from penetrating through this protective zone and causing associated damage, such as freeze-thaw cracking, reinforcing steel corrosion, chloride ion penetration, and ASR related cracking.
This white paper discusses how the PAVIX CCC100 technology works and its applications.
