GapVax Inc. evolved from its sister company, GAP Pollution & Environmental Control Inc., was founded after the 1977 Johnstown Flood. Gary A. Poborsky saw a need to help with the flood cleanup around the city and he got to work with a used vacuum truck. From that point forward Poborsky’s business kept growing. Learning from the service company and operators what was needed to get the job done, Poborsky set out to build his own equipment, thus creating GapVax Inc. GapVax began custom building industrial and municipal vacuum equipment in 1989 and has continued to grow and become a leading manufacturer in the industry.
