FUNBELT – A red carpet for the men and women in red, an innovation by FICAP MONTAGNE!

This year FICAP MONTAGNE innovates once again by unrolling the red carpet for the men and women that sprinkle the slopes with their red sweater uniforms! This season, the French Ski School (ESF) in Arc 2000 has chosen a FUNBELT® carpet lift to modernise its learning area. It's an unusual carpet lift that incarnates the red sweater spirit by having a conveyor belt that is 100% red! FICAP MONTAGNE encourages originality and makes it possible for each installation to be different and adapted to the personality of the ski school or of the resort.

A stylish elliptical protective gallery protects the youngest learners from bad weather, making sure that skiing remains an intact pleasure and offering optimal comfort for the very young. Discreet and elegant, this aluminium panoramic gallery offers children splendid views. For extra visual effect, the carpet reflects its colour all over the gallery!

Just like the carpet lift, all our galleries are customizable (colour of the frames, wood base, RVB LED lighting, visual communication on the windows, etc.) to best promote schools. FICAP MONTAGNE's research department staff call on their expertise to offer 100% customizable ski lifts.

FUNBELT® carpet lifts aim at conveying the mountain spirit and offering safe and effortless rides towards happy skiing!

The FUNSPEED® carpet lift : a multi-purpose ski lift

The FUNBELT® brand provides a comprehensive range of customised multi-purpose carpet lifts for passenger transport.

Ideal for skiers and very useful for snowboarders, these carpet lifts can also be used by pedestrians—whether they are carrying luggage or not. The carpet lift makes it a lot easier for golfers on the Haut-Poitou golf course to return to the club house. Summer mountain resorts use the carpets to transport passengers to tubing runs and also for getting mountain bikes and scooters up the hill with considerably less effort.

An engineering department studies the requirements and constraints of the installation to make it adaptable to your specific field :
- Ski lifts in ski stations (foot of the slopes, access to ski slopes higher up in the resort, etc.)
- Internal resort links
- Helping the youngest to learn to ski
- Installation of a toboggan run
- Summer mountain activities (off-road mountain scooter, tubing, etc.)
- Assistance for golfer mobility, etc.
- Various events (entertainment, theatre, TV, etc.)
