Thank you to Alex Air Apparatus, a 4-Bugle Sponsor of the MSFCA! 

In today’s fire service, technology evolves as quickly as fire conditions.
New equipment, updated standards, and innovative ways to protect firefighters and reduce health risks emerge every day. It’s a dangerous profession—firefighters put their lives on the line call after call. The last thing you should have to question is the reliability of your gear.

At Alex Air Apparatus, we’re firefighters serving firefighters. Built by those who’ve been on the front lines, we understand your challenges and know what it takes to stay safe, efficient, and ready for anything the job throws your way.

With over 400 years of combined experience in the fire service and more than 38 years in business, Alex Air has set the standard for quality products and unmatched service after the sale.

We’re big enough to meet your needs—and small enough to care.

We appreciate Alex Air Apparatus's continued support of the MSFCA!
