Company News

Thank you for your support of PAC products! Our staff is here to support first responders and all our partners around the world. Let us help with product selection and custom board design!

Did you know? PAC is rooted in the U.S. fire industry, but our users span several additional industries in over 30 countries. Other markets include landscaping, towing and law enforcement to name a few.

PAC is very excited to announce several new items, outlined in this newsletter!

Labor and material shortages continue to haunt PAC and all manufacturers. Be assured that PAC closely monitors lead times, quality, and production schedules. To quickly serve our customers PAC maintains healthy stock levels. As of this writing, few product shortages exist! Please call us with any concerns on availability.

Additionally, aluminum products are experiencing elevated costs. PAC has implemented modest price increases on aluminum products, effective May 1st, 2022. Contact us for your latest pricing.

Finally, FDIC 2022 was a great success! Our team did a fantastic job showing our truck and displays to thousands of visitors. It was great to be back in person again!

PAC continues to lead during the Coronavirus pandemic.
Following NYS & CDC guidelines, PAC maintains a 100% on-site workforce. Throughout the pandemic, PAC never stopped
critical functions. Our hearts go out to those affected by this illness or the lockdowns.

We know our customers require urgency – an apparatus out of service risks lives! That is why we recognize the entire talented
staff of PAC! Rest assured, our raw material supply is strong; thanks to our dedicated purchasing and quality team, along with US-based manufacturing.

Our industry-leading shipping speed continues set PAC apart from the competition. While outside of our control, Freight carriers have experienced several pandemic related issues. Therefore, we must accommodate more transit time for large, palletized orders. Please be mindful of this when ordering.

One final note – At this time, the PAC headquarters is continuing a policy of NO VISITORS. Send all purchase orders to
[email protected]. Our customer service staff IS ALWAYS AVAILABLE by phone or email. Stay healthy and God Bless!

Thank you for your support of PAC products!

Update on PAC shipping – what we’re doing to ensure timely delivery!

Just a quick update – We know that many families and businesses have been affected greatly by this ever-changing situation.  During these challenging times, PAC and our suppliers have worked relentlessly so our brave first responders continue to receive the products they need.  This update regards some recent issues with shipping from PAC to our customers.  Parcel shipments, via UPS, have been timely and no issues have been reported.  UPS has been doing a great job!!  There have been, however, recent issues with some freight (LTL) carriers.  Many factors are causing delays, lost shipments and damages.  We are monitoring the situation with our freight brokers and making adjustments to freight carriers where needed.  Thank you for your support of PAC tool mounting products!

PAC publishes final 2020 catalogs!

PAC publishes final 2020 catalogs!

PAC revises and published their catalogs 3 times per year!  We have just finalized and published the final revision for 2020 and you can find them online here.  In addition to the PAC Tool Board Guide, you will find catalogs for several industries – Fire, Law Enforcement, Utility and more!  Each catalog showcases different tool mounting scenarios with PAC tool boards and brackets.  Have a look, and see all the latest products.  This year, we didn’t get to show off our new products at trade shows,  but we’ll see you on the road soon.  Stay healthy!
