About Lenko and their Snow Guns

It's all about details

The beauty is in the details. Function is more important than form. We work hard to continuously improve on our snowmaking system and its components. We search for material solutions that combine function and reliability with your economy. When we design our products, we strive for a balance between aerodynamics and mechanical function,
between economy and perfection.
