Why choose Nijdam for ice rink hire?

Nijdam began making skates in 1896. Since 1996, the brand has been part of Schreuders Sport International, whose history with skates in Leerdam goes back to 1918.

That history only matters when it makes a difference today.

For an ice rink, that is practical product knowledge, continuity, stock and spare parts that remain available.

Reasons to choose Nijdam

Designed with hire in mind

On several models, features like these are part of the product:

  • dual sizes;
  • clear size markings;
  • left/right indicators;
  • replaceable liners;
  • screwed-on buckles.

Several rental models use dual sizes. That reduces the number of size variants in a fleet and makes it easier for staff to hand over the right skate quickly.

Details that make a difference at the hire counter every day.

A stake in the product and the parts

Our skates, bob skates, liners, buckles and clips come from a factory we have co-owned for more than twenty years.

That gives us a lasting stake in both the products and the parts that go with them.

Stock in the Netherlands

The rental range is supplied from Schreuders Sport’s 55,000 m² warehouse in Leerdam.

Where the right models and sizes are in stock, this makes additions during the season possible.

Spare parts remain available

Parts for relevant rental models remain available for at least five years after purchase.

Used at permanent and temporary rinks
