More on Ice Rink Liner Tarps
Our ice rink liner tarps are specifically designed for hockey rinks and ice skating rinks. These tarps make it possible to set up a personal rink for hockey practice, figure skating rehearsal, and general outdoor winter fun.
Ice rink liners are always white because this color only absorbs a small amount of heat. So even if it’s a sunny day, the ice will not easily melt. These tarps are UV-treated so they will not easily deteriorate even when used constantly under the sun. They have arctic flexibility so they can absolutely handle the freezing conditions of the winter season.
There are grommets found along the sides of the tarp. These tough rings allow you to tie down the tarp. This cover will not tear easily. It can resist the tension coming from the grommets. This tarp is waterproof and acid-resistant, so it can resist the damaging effects of liquids. Even when it comes in contact with moisture, mildew will not form on this tarp.
In choosing an ice rink liner tarp, you need to have an extra 4 to 5 ft in length and width. For example, a 20 x 40 ice rink liner tarp should be applied to a 15 x 35 ice skating rink. The excess will be used for covering the sideboards. An extra liner is also recommended in case you have taller sideboards. Not all tarps are the same. When choosing a waterproof liner for an outdoor ice rink, make sure that there is a thick poly coating on the ice rink liner tarp.
Key Points for Ice Rink Liner Tarps
The dug-out hole for the outdoor rink should be as level as possible, and the tarp liner can hold the water evenly.
Ice Rink Liner Tarps provide the durable, waterproof foundation needed to create smooth, reliable outdoor skating surfaces. Whether you're building a backyard ice rink for family recreation, setting up a community skating area, or preparing a seasonal ice rink for schools, parks, or recreational facilities, a high-quality ice rink liner tarp helps retain water, protect the ground beneath, and support the formation of a consistent ice surface throughout the winter season.
At Tarps Plus, we offer premium Ice Rink Liner Tarps designed for dependable performance in cold-weather environments. Manufactured from heavy-duty polyethylene materials, these liners are engineered to withstand freezing temperatures while providing the waterproof barrier needed to hold water during ice formation.
Creating a successful outdoor ice rink begins with a reliable liner. Without a waterproof barrier, water can seep into the ground, making it difficult to build and maintain an even layer of ice. An ice rink liner tarp helps contain water within the rink area, allowing it to freeze more evenly and reducing water loss throughout the season.
Homeowners frequently use ice rink liner tarps to transform backyards into winter recreation spaces where families can enjoy skating, hockey practice, and outdoor activities. Properly installed liners make it easier to build seasonal rinks while helping protect lawns from excessive ground disturbance during freezing conditions.
Schools, municipalities, parks, and community organizations also rely on ice rink liner tarps to create temporary skating facilities for public events, winter festivals, physical education programs, and recreational leagues. Durable liners help support repeated seasonal use while simplifying rink preparation each year.
Ice rink liners can also help protect the underlying surface from erosion and excessive moisture during rink construction and seasonal operation. When spring arrives, the liner can be removed, allowing the area to return to its normal use after appropriate cleanup and maintenance.
High-quality ice rink liner tarps are manufactured from reinforced woven polyethylene with waterproof laminated coatings that resist punctures, tearing, moisture, UV exposure, and repeated seasonal use. Their flexible construction allows them to remain manageable during installation while maintaining dependable performance in freezing conditions.
Many ice rink liners are available in multiple sizes to accommodate small backyard rinks as well as larger recreational and community skating surfaces. Selecting the proper size allows adequate coverage within the rink frame while helping minimize water loss around the edges.
Proper installation is essential for building a quality ice rink. The liner should be placed on a relatively level surface within an appropriately constructed frame before being filled gradually with water. Adding water in thin layers over time often produces stronger, smoother ice than filling the rink all at once. Regular maintenance throughout the skating season helps preserve ice quality and extend the usability of the rink.
When the season ends, cleaning and drying the liner before folding and storing it helps maximize its lifespan. Proper off-season storage protects the material and prepares it for future winters.
