Applications This ice rink solution, which has been tried and tested for decades and is permanently optimised, is primarily used for all ice rinks that are operated during the winter months at designated locations. During the ice-free pe- riod, the ice or SkateWay boxes with their pre-installed ice mats can be stored in a space-saving way (as they can be stacked). For permanent installations, a wide range of solutions can be offered for collector pipe installation: installed on the floor, in an on-ground or underground channel, on a wall or on the dasher board. The AST EPDM ice rinks are also very popular for multi- functional sports facilities. In such cases, the AST EPDM classic ice rink is removed during ice rink operation, rol- led up again during the summer months and stowed in a shaft provided for this purpose. AST IceBox The AST IceBox consists of a stable, hot-dip galvanised steel construction with an aluminium cladding. The PE collector pipes are already integrated in the ice boxes. The collector pipes consist of flow and return pipes. The ice mats are permanently connected to them. For trans- port, the rolled up ice mats are stored on the ice boxes. Removable transport brackets allow easy stacking of the ice boxes for transport and storage. The standard AST ice boxes at a glance: Width Mat length 2,5m 20m (ice surface/Icebox 50m²) 30m (ice surface/Icebox 75m²) 40m (ice surface/Icebox 100m²) AST SkateWay® The AST SkateWay® system is a further development of the AST IceBox technology. The SkateWay® ice mats are clipped onto the so-called connection panels. This connection technology enables us to achieve the requi- red flexibility in terms of width, length and shape of the ice rink. The width of the connection panels is selecta- ble (0.5m / 1.0m or 2.5m) - the mat lengths of the AST SkateWays are also selectable (10 / 20 or 30m).
