The brief

Polar Ice has been supplying ice across Auckland and Northland since 1996, from party ice for barbecues to salt water flake for fishermen, with over 900 customers from airlines to dairies. Their old site ran on a tired template that did not match a brand with this much fun in it.

The goal

A bright, playful site that sells ice to party hosts and businesses alike. It needed to show the product range, make event hire easy, and let customers place an order online without picking up the phone.

The approach

A fresh build with more personality.

Rise Creative designed a bold, colourful look, and we built it in WordPress with Elementor. Products and event hire each have their own page, and we built a custom ordering form so new and existing customers can order ice straight from the site.

The result

Chilling out parties since 1996.

A site with as much personality as the brand, and a better structure underneath it. We host it and look after it.
