Synthetic Ice
WaJuFo synthetic ice is a completely new product. It is not installed by panel connection like traditional synthetic ice. Wajufo synthetic ice is installed by liquid pouring, which create a seamless connection. Our raw material is eco-friendly. You can also embed the lines under the ice before installation. As a result of skating, our ice rinks may develop surface scratches. Don’t worry. When the scratches are serious, we can install it again. Skating on Wajufo ice is very similar to skating on a real ice rink. In fact, only a professional skater will notice the difference. You can skate on our ice with any type of ice skates, including hockey or figure skates.

Any surface is suitable as long as it is flat, levelled and hard. Hence, you can build Wajufo synthetic ice rinks directly on concrete, wood, asphalt, marble etc.
- Performance similar to real ice
Skating on Wajufo ice is very similar to skating on a real ice rink because inside structure of our ice is similar to real ice.
In fact, only a professional skater will notice the difference. - Ok for any regular rink equipment. No need to buy new equipment.
Curling stone at 19.96 kgs is OK on our ice.
You can skate on Wajufo ice with any type of ice skates, including hockey or figure skates. - Able to perform movements as on real ice
On Wajufo ice, you can do whatever you do when you are on the real ice, even including professional figure skating action.
