Description
The rules of the game have changed! A revolutionary ice rink, radically different from anything seen before.
This rink is made from top-quality synthetic ice panels and can be used indoors and outdoors all year round, even in the height of summer.
Thanks to its unique material, it offers a glide 95% similar to that of a conventional ice rink and can host figure skating shows and ice hockey matches, among many other activities.
The panels come in different sizes, weights and thicknesses. All four edges are grooved so that they interlock into a strong, perfectly level rink surface, and the assembly system keeps them performing perfectly across a wide range of temperatures.

Technical details
The skating surface is made of panels of improved polyolefin with mineral fillers (graphite, glass microspheres, etc.) which, in the right proportions, give it outstanding resistance to abrasion and notching (up to 40 kg/mm² according to DIN 53453).
The material has a tensile strength of 24 N/mm² according to DIN 53455 and an elongation at break of over 700% (DIN 55455).
It has a Shore D hardness of 70 according to DIN 53405 and a thermal conductivity of 0.43 W/(m·K). Of particular note is its high coefficient of linear expansion, 2 × 10⁻⁴ /°C, which must be taken into account once the rink is installed.
As a general rule, the panels should not be exposed to temperatures above 80 °C.
The panels have been tested by the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the Mechanical Engineering Laboratory of the Seville School of Engineering, and the product is approved by the Spanish Ice Sports Federation.
Maintenance
Correct maintenance is essential to get the most out of the rink and extend its service life.
Maintenance is simple and can be carried out by non-specialist staff.
The three key maintenance points
- Keep the surface clean (vacuum daily).
- Apply glide fluid regularly.
- Keep skate blades sharp.
