Analysts’ Viewpoint on Market Scenario
Rise in the popularity of outdoor sports and other recreational activities is augmenting the North America outdoor ice rink industry. Ice hockey, sled hockey, skating, and other winter sports are played on outdoor ice rinks across the U.S. and Canada. Increase in government investment in sports and urban parks is expected to drive market progress in the region during the forecast period.
High cost associated with refrigerated rinks is likely to limit the North America outdoor ice rink market growth in the next few years. Vendors in the market are investing significantly in the R&D of advanced and cost-effective products to expand their revenue share.
Ice rink is a frozen body of water or hardened chemicals where people can skate or play winter sports. It is used to play ice hockey, sled hockey, sponge hockey, and figure skate. Rinks can be bifurcated into two types: natural - where freezing occurs at low ambient temperatures; and artificial - where a coolant creates low temperatures on the surface underwater, causing the water to freeze.
Artificial ice rinks made of plastic are gaining traction in North America, as they are cost-effective and easy to install. Artificial rinks consist of a concrete slab. A pipe carrying the cooled liquid passes through this plate, causing the platform to freeze.
Winter sports are extremely popular in North America, especially in Canada. Ice hockey is one of the prominent sports that attracts a large number of fans. Presence of major ice hockey leagues in Canada, such as the Ontario Hockey League, Canadian Hockey League, and Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, is fueling the market statistics.
Rise in awareness regarding the health benefits of outdoor sports is likely to drive the demand for backyard ice rinks. This, in turn, is expected to propel the North America outdoor ice rink market development in the next few years. Skating has gained traction as a sport, art, and leisure as opposed to a means of locomotion. Ice skates have evolved significantly in terms of design and production. Ice skating is widely practiced and enjoyed on outdoor skating rinks.
The Government of Canada is progressively prioritizing and investing in urban parks. Emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic led to surge in awareness regarding urban parks for learning, recreation, and mental & physical well-being. The Government of Canada allotted US$ 130 Mn from its 2021 budget for the development of a network of urban parks in the country. Such investments are expected to offer lucrative opportunities for North America outdoor ice rink industry growth in the next few years.
Winter recreational parks are increasingly gaining traction as large number of people prefer to spend their time socializing with friends and family. Adoption of outdoor sports and recreational activities improves health and fitness. Rise in popularity of ice recreational activities and sports in the U.S. and Canada is prompting outdoor ice rink maintenance companies to offer robust design and installation services.
According to the latest North America outdoor ice rink market research, the U.S. is expected to gain significant share of the market during the forecast period. Demand for outdoor ice rink liners is high in several states in the U.S. such as Illinois, Massachusetts, and California, where it snows for longer periods of the year. The number of outdoor ice rink management companies is also growing in other states owing to increase in demand. Some companies manufacture rinks for both recreational and professional use. They offer skates and other accessories on a rental basis. Vendors organize skating courses to expand their consumer base.
Natural rinks require open spaces such as ponds, lakes, and canals. Ice accumulated on those water bodies is leveled and cleared to construct ice rinks. Leveling and paving of ice is a cost-effective approach and requires less labor. Thus, several vendors prefer natural ice rinks; however, they are available only for a limited time.
According to the latest North America outdoor ice rink market forecast, Canada is expected to dominate the industry during 2022-2031, followed by the U.S. Rise in participation in ice hockey is a major factor driving market expansion in the country. Ice hockey is a popular sport in Canada both as a hobby and a profession. Hockey Canada, an organization that works with sponsors, volunteers, and Hockey Canada Foundation, mentioned that hockey is one of the dominant sports in Canada and has 700,000 participants enjoying the game on a seasonal basis.
The North America outdoor ice rink market is moderately fragmented with a few large-scale vendors controlling considerable share. Manufacturers are investing significantly in comprehensive research and development activities, primarily to launch customized products with advanced technologies. They are also adopting partnership, collaboration, and M&A strategies to enhance their market share.
ICE N’GO, Custom Ice Inc., Cascadia Sport Systems Inc., Xtraice, Smart Rink, Iron Sleek, Inc., CTC Group Canada Inc., Synthetic Ice Solutions, Total Sport Solutions, Inc., and Ice Rink Warehouse are prominent players operating in the market.
