West Fraser has donated 100 SterlingOSB Zero boards to be used at Aviemore Ice Rink
The donation from the Inverness-based timber construction company will allow the Aviemore Ice Rink to be transformed for summer.
What are SterlingOSB Zero boards?
SterlingOSB Zero boards have no added formaldehyde, making them more environmentally friendly and consistent. The boards allow users to reduce waste with precision-engineered panels.
Each pack of SterlingOSB Zero boards contain high-quality boards with no knots, voids or delaminating problems, making the panels easy to saw, drill, and nail.
The boards will help protect the ice rink in summer weather
The SterlingOSB Zero boards will help cover the rink and protect the ice during warmer weather.
The same boards were also used during the recent Cairngorms Cycle Festival, which helped families in the community to safely enjoy off-road cycling in the area.
“Thanks to the kind team at West Fraser, we are now able to create a fantastic space for families to relax and enjoy over the summer break. We’re also looking to try and set up an off-ice curling lane to attract more people to enjoy ice-themed activities outdoors,” said Amanda Clinton, manager at Aviemore Ice Rink.
“Our community charity team are hugely excited to be able to continue using the boards for future events and occasions, so we know this donation will go the extra mile to help the local community as well,” she continued.
“We are always happy to support the local community, so we were thrilled to be able to provide our SterlingOSB Zero boards to the team at the Aviemore Ice Rink,” commented Stuart Hendry, general manager at West Fraser’s Inverness mill.
“By working closely with the team at the site, we were able to provide a perfect solution that can be easily placed and removed from the Ice Rink to be used as an easy to place and remove surface that could create the perfect event space,” he concluded.
