Grote Industries Debuts New Safety Circuit Roadshow Truck at Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week 2026

Attendees will have the opportunity to interact with one of the roadshow trucks in the booth

MADISON, Ind. (January 16, 2026) – Grote Industries is launching its new Safety Circuit Roadshow at Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week ’26 (HDAW), taking place January 19-22 in Grapevine, Texas. Consistent with this year’s show theme, “Eyes on the Road,” the booth will feature a road design with one of the two new show trucks as the main display.

Featuring over 70 Grote lighting and safety products, these Ford F-250s with Knapheide bodies will tour the country to demonstrate emergency lighting, warning and hazard lights, alarms and sirens, and work lighting. Throughout the year, the trucks will be at distributor and fleet events, where customers can interact with the products and learn about their operation and benefits.

“We’re excited to get these trucks on the road,” said Matt Forner, Director of Aftermarket Sales. “They’re a great way to bring our products to the customer so they can see the quality and performance we offer firsthand.” Forner said Grote will document the tour across social media while hosting demonstrations at customer locations and industry events. “We’ll be scheduling 10 months of tour stops for demonstrations, so customers still have time to contact their Grote representative to lock in a slot for their location or event.”

The truck will be in the Grote booth (#1623) during the HDAW show hours.
