Product Description
Product DescriptionWhat is synthetic ice?
synthetic ice is a high-tech plastic that you can skate on. It's a synthetic ice skating surface composed of specially engineered polymers that permit a skate blade to glide as smoothly as on real ice. The material is an ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) that goes through a unique pressing process.
How does synthetic ice work?
Skating on ice means gliding on a thin layer of water as the blade's friction generates heat and melts the ice surface. Skating on synthetic ice causes the same friction and heat, which releases lubricants chemically. This sets our synthetic ice apart from all competitors.
This exceptionally fast and smooth skating surface has minimal maintenance. Unlike other synthetic products that use spray-on gliding enhancer additives for sliding properties, Self-Lubricated Pro Synthetic Ice features low friction technology.ice unique formula eliminates sticking and allows the blade to glide smoothly at all times. This results in great glide properties without the need for messy, short-lived surface coatings or lubricants. It is also UV stabilized and inherently impact resistant to withstand extreme heat or cold temperatures, for durability and long life.

Advantages
Why Synthetic Ice?
Synthetic ice molecular weight must be more than 4 million , molecular weight is higher, anti-aging property & self lubrication property is better, flexibility is more suitable for ice sports. ice weight is above 10 billion, it is 95% similar to real ice.
Competitive advantages are :
1) Built with UHMW-PE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) for best performance and durability. |
2) Self-lubricating makes your rink usable in all conditions without any additives or add-on gliding enhancers liquids. |
3) Great agility with optimal grip and glide ratio |
4) Goalie creases, lines, face-off dots and custom circles can be permanently added to your rink. |
5) No special skates required |
6) Interlocking modular pieces enable easy and fast to build up and dismantle |
7) Maintenance free, the only necessary maintenance is cleaning. |
8) Chemical stability and apparence, repellent to staining, water or dirt |
FAQ
1. What is the coefficient of friction?
Most synthetic ice tiles are designed with a matte surface, which, when new, mimics a surface that has been seasoned from skating,
thus reducing friction to the blades. The skating experience is as pleasant and easy on day one as it is in year ten.
As the tiles are used, the matte surface is worn away and replaced with superficial scratches and scarring of the surface that enhances skating speed.
The more the synthetic floor is used, the faster it will skate.
2. How long does synthetic ice last?
The lifespan of most synthetic tiles is indefinite, under normal and expected use.
The tiles are nearly indestructible under even the worst of normal use conditions.
Some manufacturers provide written warranties with each floor, usually from 3 years to 10 years.
However, some floors have been used for 15 years, during which time the manufacturer received no warranty claims.
In addition, the tiles can be turned over and used for another 10+years.
3. Do we have to sharpen the skates using a special method?
No, you take care of your blades as normal.
On synthetic surfaces, skates need to be sharpened roughly twice as often, on average.
4. Are there any special application or floor preparation requirements?
Tiles can be installed on any sturdy, flat, level and firm surface.
Many floors have been installed in basements, parking lots, driveways, theatres, malls on floats and simple treated lumber decking.
Any imperfections or dips in your subfloor may be leveled with sand, pea gravel or concrete. Concrete, asphalt, and decks are commonly used as subfloors.
5. Does the synthetic ice surface stand up to practice skating such as braking, turning, pivoting etc.?
Yes, at least as regards to hockey. Any stops, drills, maneuvers, and turns that can be done on natural or refrigerated ice can be done on synthetic ice.
Synthetic ice allows for ice skating as well,
but to get the BEST use of synthetic ice for figure skating requires an ultra-dense surface with the lowest coefficient of friction available - 10% or less.
This is because speed is required in order to build momentum for the jumps and lifts.
The best would be the self lubricating ice which give sufficient natural glide and speed. Note also that the picks can damage a lesser-quality synthetic surface.
6. Can both sides be used to skate on?
Yes, at least as regards to hockey. Any stops, drills, maneuvers, and turns that can be done on natural or refrigerated ice can be done on synthetic ice.
Synthetic ice allows for ice skating as well, but to get the BEST use of synthetic ice for figure skating requires an ultra-dense surface with the lowest coefficient of friction available - 10% or less. This is because speed is required in order to build momentum for the jumps and lifts.

7. Can I make my rink bigger later on?
Yes. ice is modular. The rink can be made larger at any time by adding more units and expanding.
