Powderpack® and Tufglide® - the British made continuous ski surfaces have been developed from earlier surfaces tried in the rest of the world for various different applications including skiing. These surfaces have now been adapted and improved to our specification exclusively for use by Snowbusiness UK. The high specifications we insist on mean that Powderpack is possibly the toughest, but kindest continuous matting available for artificial ski/snowboard centres. It has been designed to look, feel and slide like snow. It is also ideal to cover unusual contours, such as jumps, moguls, ridges etc. To view our build project at Knockhatch Ski Centre (pictured above), the fastest build from start to finish in the world (only 9 weeks) click here.  To view images of our recent build at Folkestone Sports Centre (picture below) in Kent click here.

Tufglide® is used on toboggan runs for much the same reasons and gives toboggans a longer life. 

Accident Reduction a Certainty ... the ONLY surface giving a 5 year warranty !!

Powderpack®

A 2cm pile to give good edge grip, this is also the quickest of the grades, extremely tough latex backer with triple tehram style weave layers and overlap. Used for main ski areas, jumps and snowboard areas.

With 2 layers of polypropylene woven backer and one non woven geo textile with all tufts bonded through and sealed on the back. 

It is also jump practise friendly as the landing areas can be padded.  Both Powderpack® and Tufglide® are available in white or green 30m (100ft) x 4m (13ft) runs for simple, seam-free installations.

If it looks like, sounds like and feels like snow...it's probably Powderpack®!

Tufglide® Toboggan

A medium height pile, with limited edge hold developed especially for tobogganing and tubing as an ultra safe, low cost, good sliding surface.  2 layers of polypropylene geo textile web netting and tehram style non woven netting with all tufts bonded through all 3 backing layers to eradicate surface damage potential.

All these products will reduce the number of accidents on your slope and from the feedback we have received from customers who have skied on Powderpack it will also enhance the skiers enjoyment, even those experienced skiers who will not normally ski on a dry slope.
