Company philosophy
“MR.SNOW sees itself as the environmentally friendly alternative to artificial snow, which is produced using a lot of electricity and water. Our textile ski slopes do not require cooling, irrigation or environmentally harmful silicones. Our mats are robust and therefore durable, can be used again and again and are also fully recyclable. Our mats are currently made of synthetic fibres, but we are researching and looking for solutions to increase the use of renewable raw materials. Our mats also enable localised winter sports – another aspect that protects the environment.”
SNOW ANYTIME! THANKS TO TEXTILES!
MR.SNOW textile slopes make winter sports possible even in summer – without any ice or snow. Whether downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, tobogganing or ski jumping ... the durable mats can be used anywhere and regardless of the weather. A highly gliding special yarn is processed into a patented structure. Thanks to this, skiing on the MR.SNOW slope is like skiing on real snow. What’s more, the sliding mats are environmentally friendly: they do not need to be cooled or watered and are fully recyclable. The ‘textile snow’ is produced exclusively in Saxony and delivered from here to an international customer base.
