Rushden, Northants.-based Snowbusiness are the UK agents for Sun Kid, which has recently advanced from transporting skiers and snowboarders uphill to moving everyone else uphill as well - complete with their prams, pushchairs and wheelchairs!

Without the need for permanent attendance by staff and with a greater lift capacity than draglifts, the Sun Kid travelator offers reduced and simplified lift maintenance and less wear on ski mats caused by walking uphill with toboggans and tubes.

A further benefit is the travelator's 'magic eye' system, which switches it on as required, reducing electricity costs.

Making life a great deal less stressful for all an attraction's clients - with an increasing number of older visitors enjoying the excitement of toboganning and tubing - the Sun Kid system of hill climbing is easier, reduces lift injuries and can encourage regular, return visits.

Snowbusiness UK offers a full design and installation service and - for the first time in the UK - has a number of factory reconditioned travelators on offer at greatly reduced prices.
