è il significativo nome di una innovativa linea di scioline che SOLDA' immette sul mercato.
Per la soddisfazione di quei sciatori, sia di livello amatoriale che agonistico, che si pongono l'obiettivo di armonizzare prestazioni tecniche eccezionali con scrupolosa attenzione alla sicurezza dell'utilizzatore e dell'ambiente.

is the evocative line of skiwaxes that SOLDA' brings to the market in the next winter, for the satisfation of thosr skiers, both amateur and racers, who set themselves the goal of harmonizing execeptional technical performances with the utmost care to safety for user and for the Environment
In 1934 Gino Solda launched a small company in Italy focused on the production of high quality ski wax. Solda waxes were produced, sold and used all over Central Europe using formulas that were primarily based on hydrocarbon paraffins with synthetic additives that enhanced the glide of skis on various snow conditions. In the mid 1980s Manlio Solda, a skier, wax maker and chemical engineer, discovered a process to combine fluorine with hydrocarbon waxes which made the waxes extremely hydrophobic ( reduced water adhesion ) and improved glide, especially in wet snow conditions. Other wax companies followed this lead and fluorocarbon compounds became common in ski wax applications, especially as additives applied for racing. It was a time when we did not know what we did not know.
We now know that Per-Fluorinated compounds with greater than 6 carbon/fluorine bonds on the molecular chain, have proven to be harmful to the respiratory systems of wax techs who were applying them to skis without the use of organic filtration respirators. There is also some evidence that fluorinated compounds of greater than C6 do not break down in the environment and may be hazardous to water quality, soil health and animal health. The collection of these data are ongoing.
In Europe, as well as in the USA, there is an increasing concern over the use of all Per-fluorinated compounds, regardless of their molecular structure,
