Instant Ice
The Instant Ice Portable Piping System was designed to take portable ice making to the next level. Instant Ice was born after years of research, listening to customers and formulating ideas to make ice making cost effective without reducing the quality of the ice sheet. Instant Ice is unique in its design as it eliminates the need for sand and ice paint – common to all other portable systems. This benefit means no additional labor hours required for levelling sand or painting the ice.
Instant Ice also boasts the largest heat transfer surface ever produced. It features a 1/2″ tube size to generate high flow rates with minimal working pressure. Instant Ice can accommodate the largest chillers and flow rates, and also the longest runs of any portable rink system while operating at a lower pressure. This results in unheard of ice making speed and lower energy costs.
No Sand or Ice Paint
Sand is a common component of all other portable rink systems. Sand acts as a levelling tool and also creates a surface to which the ice will bond. Instant Ice has eliminated the need for sand since ice will bond directly to the Instant Ice mat. The end result is that the yearly headache of purchasing and levelling sand is all but eliminated. Ice painting is another common element of portable systems that is eliminated with the use of Instant Ice. A white pigment is added to the proprietary materials during the manufacturing of the mat. This creates an all white mat surface that creates a clean and crisp white appearance.
Energy Efficiency
Instant Ice creates a larger surface of heat transfer due to its pipes being more closely spaced. The end result is a system that boasts a 35% larger heat transfer medium that conventional rinks. This results in less demand on the chiller and glycol pumps, and essentially more money in the owner’s pocket!
Less Setup Time
Because of Instant Ice’s unique design, setup and tear down time is reduced by 30%. Aside from actual energy costs, labour is the most costly line item. Instant Ice will pay for itself after only two seasons from the savings accrued from reduced labour and materials!
Porta Ice
Whether you want a seasonal rink, a toboggan/sled run, a temporarily-iced parking lot or tennis court, an ice show floor, or virtually any other ice need, you can rely on Porta-Ice for easy installation, versatility, an excellent ice surface, and economical operation.

Skating Tracks
Ice skating tracks are a new and unique adventure in the world of ice skating. Gone are the days of skating in circles at the local rink. Skating tracks have been a popular destination in Europe over the past five years and recently have been gaining popularity in North America. These attractions present a unique experience compared to public skating. Many tracks range from 300 to 400 meters in length, providing a twisting and turning path along the way.
Skating Tracks offer many advantages for the rink owner or municipality. The actual footprint is smaller compared to most portable rinks, reducing both materials and start up costs. Skating tracks are the perfect way to stage a winter wonderland or Christmas show.
When you decide to operate a seasonal ice rink you need a system that is versatile and long-lasting, a system that is quick and as easy to remove as it is to install. Our portable systems are able to adapt to almost any existing situation and are designed to install fast with minimal labor. Whether you have an indoor ice rink in Canada or an outdoor ice rink in Mexico, our portable installations will excel with the same level of quality you would expect from our permanent installations.
