For NIKIN's founders, Robin and Nicholas, hockey holds a special significance. Both have swung their own hockey sticks for years. Admittedly, not on ice, but in floorball and street hockey. Thus, the request from Hockey Club Ambrì Piotta, or Ambri for short, hit the nail on the head for NIKIN. The question was not whether, but how we could form this "icy alliance."

Short Facts about Ambrì

An underdog with heart
Ambrì may be the underdog in Switzerland's top league, but that's precisely what makes the club special. With more cows than inhabitants, the small town of Ambrì is not only unique geographically, but also in terms of fan love. Many Swiss people have their favorite ice hockey teams, but if you ask them about their second favorite, you'll often hear the name Ambrì. The fact that Ambrì chooses a young, nature-loving brand like us as a partner says a lot about their attitude.

Birds of a feather flock together
For us, partnerships aren't just about business, but rather about shared values. For NIKIN, community is at the heart of everything we do – just like Ambrì. And learning that Ambrì also plants trees was the icing on the cake. For NIKIN, the collaboration with Ambrì Piotta is a milestone.
We look forward to future joint projects! Together, we are committed to a better, greener world—on the ice and beyond—and invite you all to be part of this exciting journey.
