Raising the Standard

SEE YOU IN LAS VEGAS AT ARA

We'll be at The ARA Show™ so stop by our booth to see the newest work-ready STI service truck with Tiger Crane. Talk with Tim & Cory about why our solutions make good sense in the equipment rental market for '25 & beyond. We'll have a brand-new truck on the show floor so come see it!

White, Black, Red, Blue, Yellow, Green...we custom-match paint to your specs!

If you don't need standard white, we can color-match to your fleet's branding. Want the crane & compressor to coordinate like this sharp black unit? Custom colors, company logos & lettering, we can make it happen right off the factory floor.

Our bodies come with a 5-year rust-thru warranty, plus 3 years on paint & bedliner thanks to our PPG auto finish!

Best of all, an STI body will outlive a chassis or two — you can send it back to us to remount & repaint. We're here to help your truck &/or crane work as hard as you do!

Don't Let Old Man Winter Win

Do you work in an area that sees winter weather woes of snow & ice? Then you need to pay closer attention to your finishes to ensure rust can't find a weak spot to attack. The combo of sand, salt, & chemical anti- or de-icers put on roads can degrade unprotected vehicle finishes.

"Unlike the rock salt used before, today's chemical mix stays wet longer & absorbs more moisture from the air," says Doug Zabel, STI's Paint Supervisor. "That dent, crack, or scratch is all it takes to invite rust in!"
