Arctic out of Rijeka just flexed hard by building the biggest ice park Switzerland has ever seen right outside the Bossard Arena in Zug. The setup covers 1,650 square meters with an extra 350-square-meter skating track, and it costs around 900 thousand euros, split between the city and the EVZ Zug hockey club. Leo Ventin from Arctic said prep kicked off back in May because getting all the measurements perfect was critical for a job this massive.
The whole thing took four days to install, and Arctic had to train local staff to handle future setups themselves since this was their first giant project abroad. They beat out a bunch of older European competitors who have way more rinks under their belts, which is wild considering Croatia only has three total ice rinks compared to countries with dozens.
Arctic already handles Advent stuff in Croatian cities and dropped a 500-square-meter rink in Rijeka this year. They are talking deals in Canada, New Zealand, and the UAE after their LED RGB tech blew people away at some trade show in Cologne.
