The skating rink is a favourite place for everyone who wants to spend time with their loved ones in a unique place of fun. And as you probably already know, activities on the active surface of an skating rink are usually automatically associated with cold days of the year.
What are the most important benefits of skating?
Skating stimulates the activity of all muscle groups involved in body movement. Moreover, gliding on such a surface requires synchronized leg movements, which leads to increased joint flexibility. This type of physical effort is excellent for the cardiovascular, respiratory, and digestive systems.
Strengthening muscles and improving joint health leads to much better balance. Learning the correct position to stay upright on the slippery surface works towards gaining better overall body control. Additionally, regular practice of this type of movement significantly enhances eye-limb coordination.
Skating plays a crucial role in optimizing the metabolic process. In approximately one hour of skating, an adult can burn up to 200 calories. Therefore, this type of sustained physical effort, combined with a proper diet, can be extremely useful for weight loss.
Time spent at the skating rink can contribute to reducing stress, as the body releases endorphins following the physical exertion. Furthermore, spending this time with friends and other skating enthusiasts can alleviate the intensity of social anxiety.
Due to these benefits, running a skating rink can be a very inspired business idea, especially considering that the eco-friendly rinks offered by Waterboyz can be used throughout the year. Take a short break now to discover the most important advantages of setting up these rinks compared to traditional ones.
How to choose a skating rink based on the most important criteria?
Consider the following criteria to choose the best skating rink:
Long-term business operation
If you want to engage in a certain economic activity, choose a model from our range of synthetic ecological rinks, as they are exceptionally resistant to collective use and have a long lifespan. The sliding surface of these products is made from a durable and reliable plastic composite material. Lifespan: over 20 years. Warranty provided: 10 years.
Moreover, such a skating rink is ideal for businesses held during outdoor festivals or fairs. Firstly, there is no classic ice surface that could be affected by heat. Secondly, this assembly is straightforward to relocate, and its components can be transported by truck to the next location.
Available space for installation
If space is a crucial criterion, carefully study our updated stock. We offer synthetic ecological rinks of various sizes, ranging from 50 m² to 800 m². You have the freedom to choose a solution that fits the space you have available. Regardless of the chosen product, its panels are easily assembled, much like puzzle pieces. Synthetic ecological rinks up to 120 m² can be installed and put into use in a single day, minimizing the impact of construction on the quality of life in the vicinity. Our skating rinks operate optimally regardless of the geographic area or the average annual temperatures recorded in Romania.
Operating costs
If you are looking for an efficient product in terms of usage costs, opt for a synthetic ecological rink. Operating such a perimeter does not require the use of resources such as water or electricity.
A traditional ice rink can consume approximately 20,000 euros worth of electricity in two winter months. In the case of a synthetic ecological ice rink from Waterboyz, the electricity bills for the same period are zero.
Furthermore, when purchasing a synthetic ecological rink model, we provide an extensive range of accessories to have more control over the budget required to start such a business: fencing, skates, skate racks, tools, and special maintenance solutions.
Compliance with UN Sustainable Development Goal 12:
The synthetic ecological rinks we offer in our online range have been designed to have an extremely low impact on the environment:
● Zero electricity and water usage costs.
● Assembled structures made from recyclable materials.
● Self-lubrication process based on environmentally-friendly oils.
The population's dependence on available natural resources has increased by about 65% since 2000, while large-scale production methods continue to affect the climate and natural ecosystems, reaching very high pollution thresholds.
By integrating synthetic ecological rinks into our stock, we aim to promote a business approach in line with UN Sustainable Development Goal 12, concerning responsible consumption and the use of sustainable production methods, out of concern for the conservation and regeneration of natural environments exposed to human actions.
