Acer Snowmec, the company that has put the snow in to Ski Dubai, half a dozen British indoor snow slopes, Xanadu's in Madris on both sides of the Atlantic in Madrid and New Jersey and many more venues worldwide has reported a surge in new interest in the past few months.

"From our perspective the last month has seen our biggest number of contracts signed," said Manaing Director Malcolm Clulow, "Our enquiry rate is back up to pre-recession levels and the future looks all white."

Acer Snowmec recently unveiled plans for a major new indoor snow centre in Blackpool (see other news) and has also had enquiries for three Snow Play Centres in India, two in the US, a second centre in Istanbul, a Central Government backed 60,000 sq m National Winter Sport Academy Centre in The North of England and a 35,000 sq m centre in Seoul Korea.

"These are all projects we have had to let go to sleep for 12 months but have now restarted with a vengeance." said Mr Clulow.

In another positive sign, Mr Clulow revealed that their latest UK installation at the Hemel Hempstead Snow Centre north of London has reported far better business in its first six months than projected in its business plan, despite the pressures of the strong recession in the UK.
