Will this build meet all the health, safety, fire and other codes?
Yes, absolutely. We always build to the highest known standards in USA and Canada.

If you provide us with your local health department requirements we will make sure your truck or trailer meets all codes and regulations.
Do your trucks, trailers and containers meet N.S.F requirements?
Yes. Our products meet if not exceed all N.S.F (National Sanitation Foundation) requirements.
Do I have to have a fire suppression system?
Maybe not, your local health inspector may say you don’t need fire suppression, it is best to check with the Fire Marshall as they have higher jurisdiction. A fire suppression unit is an emergency extinguishing system in which nozzles are placed each piece of cooking equipment with an open flame. If the temperature exceeds a certain point, a dry powdered chemical is dispersed and the gas is automatically shut off. The system also comes with a K-class fire extinguisher.
How do I know what equipment I will need?
Tell us your menu, needs, and target audience and we will help to design a layout for your truck, trailer, or container to maximize workflow and profits.
