Snow

Snow is usually required in summer, where the most difficult element is removing the sound of ice cream vans. Our in house developed equipment is capable of laying a light dusting of snow/frost as well as the more traditional deeper snow, capable of showing good footprints.

Different grades of snow products are available for indoor(fire retardant) and outdoor use (chemical free/untreated).
