We are the snow company of choice for the biggest names in the mall industry, working with Houston's (Texas) The Galleria, A Simon Mall, as Air Emirates kicked off a media campaign with a Snow Spectacular event. We helped promote business while gaining extra media publicity for this new ad launch. We helped The Galleria to stand out and becoming a local talking point, as wells as attracting new passing customers with snow that is virtually indistinguishable from the real thing allowing you to recreate falling snow flakes virtually any time of the year.

Theatrical
Snow is the Test
Dance companies, who try to avoid having anything on the floor that might
cause their performers to slip, stumble or fall, love the fact that they can
have a realistic fake snow effect without the worry of anything under their
dancers' feet. Rock 'n' roll bands and other entertainers have started making
use of fake snow to create blizzards over the audience without having to pay
exorbitant cleanup fees to the venue's management. Because the fake snowflakes
that the machine creates are mostly air, they behave more like real snow as
they fall and simply evaporate.
With our snow making machines we can leave on for an hour over a stage dance floor and we will have a dry floor with no residue.
For Ballet Dance Companies we can place two of our snow machines at trim height over the stage. We will leave them on as we take the director to lunch, an hour later when we return the stage will be dry and the snow will still be falling.
We would be glad to give you a demo of our simulated snowflakes. Schedule an appointment 813 689 6269.
Frequently Asked
Questions
What is Evaporative Snow made of?
Evaporative Snow ™ is a laboratory formulated foam based solution that
makes the brightest looking evaporative snow product. It is 98 percent water
and two percent surfactant. Surfactants are elastic chemicals that make the
hollow flakes. This solution, used in our snow machines, creates a realist
looking snowfall. The solution is air aerated at 1/10,000. The water starts
to evaporate within seconds making the flakes become smaller and lighter until
they disappear. The surfactant chemical becomes microscopic particles. The
surfactants used in our formulation are of the highest cosmetic grade possible.
They are non-allergenic, biodegradable, non-toxic and non-staining.
Will the Evaporative
Snow ™ stain anything?
When our machines are used properly, they leave no moisture. We have been
making it snow for years, and we have never received one compliant about staining.
Our fluid uses De ionized filtered water; this product was originally used
in the movie industry so that if the snow landed on a camera lens it would
not leave a water ring.
Is
it slippery?
The product, when used with the right settings, can run continually without
causing any damp or slippery surfaces. We need a starting height of 15 - 30
ft.
Can
it be used around food?
Many caters and event planners use this product as part of a display, entrance
ways to a party or as a “wow” effect as guests sit to have a full
course meal. It is also used for weddings as the bride and groom cut the cake.
It is even kosher.
Does
it have an odor?
No, it has no odor or taste.
So
what is it?
This is not ice or real frozen snow. The quick answer is its a fake snow flake,
which is dense foam blown through a special filter that creates small and
various sizes of tiny white bubble clusters creating the illusion of snow.
Once it falls to ground, snow will remain white for up to 90 seconds when
it will disappear DRY.

Static coefficient of friction
We are the only snow provider that tests snow fluid for wetness - slippage on various floor surfaces, a coefficient of friction meter test. We have had several independent tests recently with major theme park clients and past with flying colors. We also can provide coefficients of friction measurement slip tests for our clients when requested.
A 0.50 COF or above has been recognized as providing non-hazardous walkways surfaces which is accepted industry standards as adopted by UL, ASTM and OSHA. These agencies set many requirements for floor safety under 29 CFR-1910 referring to providing floors of anti-slip surfaces or maintaining surfaces in non slip conditions in commercial building. It is generally considered in the industry that a walkway surface with a coefficient of friction higher than 0.50 is non-hazardous.
In all cases,
the coefficient of friction value increased after running hours of falling
snow with Snowmasters Evaporative Snow® fluid brand.
Our snow fluid test results found that floor surfaces are rated drier by 0.20+
after we ran snow for a long duration cycles over time and tested the same
surfaces when dry. No particle accumulated weigh on the surface either. That
why you only see Evaporative Snow ™ machines and Evaporative Snow®
fluid brand only used in theme parks would wide.
