TYPE I AMBULANCE
At Custom Truck & Body Works, Inc., we know what makes a good vehicle for EMS: it must be a rugged, ergonomic, and high-performance tool. As one of the best custom ambulance manufacturers in the US, we specialize in Type I builds that prioritize crew safety and long-term ROI.
Built to Outlast
Our Type I units feature heavy-duty aluminum construction. This provides a superior strength-to-weight ratio, improving fuel economy and chassis longevity while offering a corrosion-resistant "safety cage" for your team. This durability makes our modules ideal candidates for future remounts, stretching your budget further.
Integrated Technology
We eliminate guesswork in the field by integrating VMUX electronics. This multiplex system centralizes control over climate, lighting, and diagnostics into a user-friendly interface. To ensure you command the road, we offer several lighting layout options including Whelen lights, providing the industry's most reliable 360-degree high-intensity warning signals.
Precision Interiors
Efficiency in the module saves lives. We offer a customizable cabinet layout, available in standard construction or aluminum. Our aluminum cabinetry is particularly popular for its ease of disinfection and impact resistance. We don’t believe in "one size fits all"—we layout the interior based on your specific clinical workflow.
Fleet Consistency
Your new unit should look like it belongs. We provide professional decal branding to match your existing fleet, ensuring a seamless transition and a professional image in your community.
