Today, there is several businesses up here in the north of Sweden that work with snow and use the renewable material snow as a resource. Some examples are skiing facilities, both downhill and cross-country, where the businesses prepare tracks for both tourists and professional skiers. Then we have testing facilities for vehicles and tires, where the testing entrepreneurs also prepare tracks for their customers with different snow types and different frictions.

Then we also have specific businesses like Arctic Baths and the Ice Hotel that uses ice and cold climate for fantastic experience.
