DEMACLENKO has joined forces with 3CON to present the Snow4Ever 200, an unprecedented solution for efficient and powerful snowmaking when it’s not freezing.
“What’s revolutionary about Demaclenko’s technology is that real technical snow, rather than flake ice, is produced inside the system, regardless of external climatic conditions and with significantly reduced energy consumption.”
Snow4Ever 200 is the answer to perfect snowmaking above freezing point. DEMACLENKO’s new snow producer guarantees peerless snow quality, 365 days a year. What’s revolutionary about DEMACLENKO’s technology is that real technical snow, rather than flake ice, is produced inside the system, regardless of external climatic conditions and with significantly reduced energy consumption. That’s why, at a production volume of 200 m³ (260 Yd³) per day, the Snow4Ever 200 is the most powerful temperature-independent snow producer on the market, and its snow doesn’t differ in quality and texture from snow made by conventional snowmaking systems.

Produce High-Quality Snow
Another distinguishing feature is that salt and other chemical additives don’t need to be added to produce high-quality snow. All you need is water and air. You can also adjust snow density and, therefore, snow quality according to your needs. Adventure parks and event organizers, for instance, can produce dry powder snow, while ski venue operators can produce compact piste snow. All you have to do is press a button to choose the quality of snow to produce.
Innovative and Patented
This innovative, patented technology has yet another key advantage: the machine’s mechanical de-icing system means its components don’t ice up, so they keep on working without interruption. That eliminates waiting times and time-consuming de-icing. Thanks to its modular container design, the product can also be easily transported and used flexibly wherever it’s needed. No special prior knowledge or experience is required to operate it. It is controlled using DEMACLENKO’s Snowvisual 4.0 software, which is totally user-friendly and clearly displays all of the important operating processes and data.
Numerous Fields of Application
There are many ways of using the Snow4Ever 200. As well as ski resorts and winter sports centers, the product is ideal for winter sports events such as cross-country skiing, biathlon, alpine skiing, and ski jumping. DEMACLENKO’s technology is especially important for the last of these since flake ice is unsuitable for the steep slopes involved, where it would slide down due to its lack of grip. Snow4Ever is also ideal for snowmaking on glaciers, indoor snowmaking, and much more.
Redefining Snowmaking Above Freezing Point
This system was developed in collaboration with 3CON, the international technology leader in manufacturing high-end interior production systems for the automotive industry and its suppliers. Snow4Ever 200 is new territory for them, but they’ve got years of mature in-house expertise to draw on. Together with DEMACLENKO, a solution has been created that redefines the quality and efficiency of snowmaking above freezing point and sets the standard for the future.
Key Facts
Snow All Year Round – Regardless of climatic conditions, snow can be produced at temperatures above freezing.
No Flake Ice – Real, high-quality technical snow (the same production principle as snow guns).
Every Quality of Snow – Thanks to this ground-breaking technology, snow density and thus snow quality can be set at the touch of a button, from very dry powder all the way to moist spring snow.
No Icing – Innovative technology means the machine doesn’t ice up, so it can work without interruption. Defrost cycles can be defined on-demand and fully automatically.
No Additives – Salt and other chemical additives don’t need to be added to produce snow. All you need is water and air.
Mobile System – The product is easy to transport and flexible to use where it’s needed (modular container design).
Ease of Use – No special prior knowledge or experience is required to operate the product. User and maintenance training is available.
Numerous Areas of Use – Ski resorts, winter sports centers, winter sports events (cross-country skiing, biathlon, alpine skiing, ski jumping), glacier snowmaking, indoor, and much more.
