Xtraice makes its mark on Asia

MIAMI - April 29, 2013 - PRLog -- In less than one year, they have sold seven ecological ice rinks in the United Arab Emirates and so many more all along the Persian Gulf.

The climate of this zone is characterised by extreme temperatures during the summer months, often reaching 50 degrees. Conventional ice requires a great deal of energy consumption, which can be costly and of course becomes more expensive depending on climactic conditions. Xtraice has through its innovative technology succeeded in creating plastic ice panels which have a strong resistance to external conditions, meaning that they can be used in a large range of temperatures from between -80 to 100 degrees.

Continual studies made by those who are interested in Xtraice’s panels have demonstrated the advantages of synthetic ice rinks in comparison to conventional ice:

·         Very similar response to natural ice

·         Whilst other brands of ecological ice require the user to sharpen the blade of the ice skate after 20-100 minutes of use, Xtraice allows the skater to skate without sharpening for 14 hours.

·         Xtraice has successfully minimised the problem of the emergence of shavings and abrasions in the plastic ice rink. This will mean a huge saving in terms of maintenance costs.

·         Xtraice has caught up with the best sliding level which currently exists on the market. The company’s ecological ice rinks are made from panels that lubricate themselves during use.

·         The sliding sensation, achieved by Xtraice is equal to real ice. Numerous professionals and specialists from the ice hockey sector and from the figure skating world have confirmed the optimal quality of their products.

·         Xtraice’s synthetic ice is 100% recyclable. The company cares a great deal about the environment and has therefore created an alternative to real ice with characteristics which are almost identical, avoiding the huge waste of energy that real ice requires. Additionally, the product is recyclable and does not contain toxic elements.

All of these arguments have supported Xtraice strong case, helping the company to achieve success in a total of 57 countries around the world. The company will be taking part in the following exhibitions in the Middle East in the coming months: DEAL Show in Dubai which will take place been the 23rd and 25th April, Project Qatar in Doha from the 6th to 9th of May.
