DEVELOPMENT CENTER SOLUTIONS
Transform your development center with our sustainable, year-round synthetic ice ecosystem.
Dramatic cost savings. Exceptional performance.
THE CHALLENGES
Today's hockey development centers face critical obstacles that impact profitability and training effectiveness.
Rising Costs
A traditional 300m² ice surface costs approximately $31,962 annually just for cooling, with costs increasing each year.
Limited Availability
Weather conditions and maintenance requirements reduce available training days by up to 40%, limiting development opportunities.
Environmental Impact
Conventional ice systems have a carbon footprint 4.5× higher than sustainable alternatives, with significant water usage.
The Solutions
Our integrated, Swiss-engineered system combines three revolutionary technologies to deliver an authentic hockey experience without traditional ice limitations.
BENEFITS
Significant Cost Savings
Eliminate or reduce expensive ice cooling costs by incorporating OCEANICE synthetic surfaces. This sustainable approach dramatically decreases energy consumption while providing consistent, reliable training surfaces regardless of climate, season or location, delivering immediate operational savings.
Versatile Use & Full Scalability
OCEANICE works both indoor and outdoor, with weather not being a factor. Use an unused corner as an additional skating drill space or build a whole OCEANICE Arena for skating, stickhandling, shooting and small room games, adapting to your facility's specific needs.
Expanded Customer Base
Attract new clients interested in specialized training options on synthetic surfaces. The SHARKBLADES experience creates a compelling alternative that can distinguish your development center and appeal to players looking for additional training opportunities and skill development programs.
Extended Training Hours
Maximize facility usage with synthetic surfaces that require no resurfacing time. Tighter scheduling and expanded operational hours translate to increased revenue potential and more efficient use of your space, while players receive consistent training experiences year-round.
Lower Price Packages
Pass savings directly to your customers by offering lower-cost training sessions on OCEANICE surfaces. Without the overhead of ice refrigeration and maintenance, you can create more affordable training packages while maintaining profitability and expanding your service offerings to budget-conscious players.
Environmental Sustainability
Reduce your facility's carbon footprint with eco-friendly synthetic surfaces that don't require energy-intensive cooling systems. Support both business efficiency and environmental responsibility while demonstrating your commitment to sustainable practices and community environmental stewardship initiatives.

"It's new for me to be on these rollers. But it comes pretty close to the feeling on ice, which is really cool."
"You have to get used to it, but after three or four minutes, it feels very similar to ice. It's amazing. I never thought I'd have fun playing on synthetic ice."
"This really feels unreal. The experience is remarkable."
"The quality of the game became gradually better. You started to do step overs, skate backwards and try out more game elements."
"I was able to adapt really quickly. It's crazy how natural it feels after just a short time."
"As close to real ice as it can get. The transition is surprisingly smooth."
