MND SNOW launches a new generation of snowmaking solutions
At INTERALPIN 2025 (Innsbruck, Austria), MND SNOW, the snowmaking division of the French group MND, is unveiling a strategic and technological overhaul of its offering, with a new range of snow guns and the introduction of a new fan snowmaker, redesigned to offer optimum performance at marginal temperatures.
INNSBRUCK, Austria, May 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --
Taurus, the benchmark lance snow gun, gives rise to a new range of solutions.
Robust, reliable and high-performance, the best lance snow gun on the market thanks to its production capacity has conquered the world's biggest ski resorts.
MND has redesigned its range, building on the strengths of Taurus while integrating the expectations of the market in terms of modularity, retrofitting, enhanced performance at marginal temperatures and adaptation to new production constraints.
- Taurus Line, a single-row lance, ideal for narrow slopes where precision is essential
- Taurus Pro, maximized reliability and unrivalled production, is the new gold standard.
- Taurus Advanced, the most efficient solution at marginal conditions, with three rows of nozzles and an extended coverage angle of 160°, for up to 40% more snow production at equivalent start-up temperatures than the Pro.
This new range ensures interoperability between models, simplified maintenance and easier integration into existing installations. It features integrated solenoid valves for more responsive control and lighter snowmaking heads.
MND SNOW unveils a new-generation fan snowmaker
Particularly efficient at marginal temperatures (+20 to +30% more production than a standard fan snowmaker), it is the ideal solution for low-altitude sites or those with limited hydraulic pressure. It combines a new design for better integration into the natural environment, with significant technological advances, while retaining the fundamentals of MND SNOW fan snowmaker success of robustness, reliability and ease of maintenance. It enables operators to choose the solution best suited to their land profile and energy constraints.
"With this new range of lances and new fan snowmaker, we offer ski resorts greater adaptability to today's climatic realities. These solutions meet the growing demands of operators to maximize production in ever-shorter weather windows. This reliable, high-performance and durable piece of equipment embodies our vision of anticipating change by providing ever more agile and high-performance technologies." - Stéphane GAL, Director at MND SNOW
