Identification

Serial Numbers
Superior used a sequential system of numbers with the prefix SE to identify its products. After purchase by E-One, products ordered or sold by E-One or its dealer network also have an SO#. In addition, most if not all specialty apparatus (platforms, ladders) purchased by Canadian departments but manufactured in Ocala had an SE# appended to the vehicle information. Available information has SE numbers beginning at SE 20 and ending with SE 3677. They are mostly sequential, yet there are gaps where there are numbers or build information missing.

Logos
There were a number of logos used by Superior over the years. Prior to the purchase by American giant E-One they were all of a script type. Post E-One purchase they were changed to the apparatus market standard of an oval with the name on the interior.

Badging
Badging of Superior apparatus was variable. If a vehicle was destined for a Canadian department, badging was almost exclusively Superior. If a vehicle was destined for an American or overseas department, badging would most often be E-One, but American Eagle was used for many small and medium duty based apparatus.

When Superior first entered the American market, apparatus was badged Can∙Am, as there was already an apparatus manufacturer named Superior. There were also instances where an American customer specifically requested Superior badging.

Subsequent to the name change to E-One Canada in 2003, many apparatus were delivered in Canada with E-One badging.
