PE Ice Rink Barrier
Request InformationProduct Details
Core Selling Points & Compliance
Standards Adherence: Explicitly meets critical international safety and performance standards:
ASTM F1043: Validates impact resistance for hockey puck collisions.
EN 1317: Certifies safety performance to minimize injury risk during player contact.
Customization: Offers tailored solutions beyond standard configurations—including size, color, transparency, and structural reinforcement—to meet specific venue or brand requirements.
Key Advantages vs. Traditional Fences
| Feature | Polyethylene (PE) Fence | Traditional Metal/Wood Fence | Benefit Summary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Impact Resistance | High elasticity absorbs puck impacts (compliant with ASTM F1043) | Prone to deformation; causes unpredictable puck rebound | Safer gameplay, reduced puck bounce, enhanced protection for players and boards |
| Low-Temperature Resistance | Remains flexible down to −40°C with no brittleness | Metal becomes brittle; wood cracks in freezing conditions | Reliable performance in extreme ice rink environments |
| Safety Protection | Smooth surface with no sharp edges (EN 1317 certified) | Exposed welds, splinters, or rough finishes cause cuts and abrasions | Significantly reduces risk of player injury |
| Corrosion Resistance | Resistant to UV radiation, moisture, and salt spray | Metal rusts; wood rots and requires chemical treatment | Long service life with no rust or decay—ideal for humid ice arenas |
| Maintenance Cost | Requires only water cleaning; no painting or sealing | Needs annual repainting, rust removal, or wood preservative treatments | Dramatic long-term operational cost savings |
| Installation & Repair | Modular design enables tool-free assembly and single-panel replacement | Requires welding, nailing, or complex carpentry for installation and repair | Faster setup and minimal downtime during maintenance |
