Federal Signal announced on October 28 that it completed the acquisition of substantially all assets and operations of Global Vacuum Systems for approximately $29 million.
The purchase includes the company’s manufacturing facility for about $15 million, Federal Signal said. Global Vacuum Systems is based in Navasota, Texas, and was founded in 1985.
The acquired business manufactures custom liquid vacuum tank trucks in carbon steel, stainless steel and aluminum. It generated approximately $12 million in net sales during the year ended December 31, 2025, according to the announcement.
Federal Signal chief executive Jennifer Sherman said the deal expands manufacturing capacity and the company’s presence in a segment of the vacuum-truck market it considers underserved within its portfolio. Its existing brands include Vactor, TRUVAC, Guzzler and Westech.
The announcement describes a completed asset acquisition rather than a proposal awaiting completion. Expected benefits remain management expectations, and the release identifies its financial information as unaudited.
