About Dominator

Innovation, science and passion for snow sports since 1993

For over three decades, Dominator Wax has stood for innovative ski wax technology, scientific development and uncompromising performance on snow. Since its founding in 1993, Dominator has pursued a clear goal: to equip skiers and snowboarders with products that offer maximum speed, ease of use and ultimate reliability.

Whether you're a World Cup athlete, an ambitious racer or a recreational sportsperson, Dominator develops waxes and preparation products that work in the most diverse conditions and are based on decades of research.


What sets Dominator apart

Since its inception, Dominator has combined scientific research with practical experience from international racing.

Dominator stands for:

  • Development of high-performance ski and snowboard waxes
  • more than 50 international patents and publications
  • research and production in the USA
  • worldwide distribution
  • decades of collaboration with racers and service teams
  • early development of environmentally friendly and health-conscious wax technologies

From research directly to the slopes

Founder and Technical Director Dr. Thanos Karydas combines his passion for snow sports with his scientific background as a chemist with a doctorate.

The combination of laboratory research, practical tests and direct collaboration with athletes results in products that not only work in the lab, but also impress under real competition conditions.


Responsibility for Environment and Health

Already in 1994, Dominator set new standards in the development of safe ski waxes. While many competitors were still relying on older fluorine technologies, Dominator developed C6-based solutions early on and published guidelines for safe working practices in the wax room.

This innovative spirit continues to shape the company to this day and later led to the development of modern fluorine-free racing series such as:

From World Cup to recreational sports

Dominator has always focused on competitive sports, working closely with technicians, service teams, and athletes.

Today, Dominator products are used worldwide by:

  • World Cup athletes
  • Junior racers
  • Ski clubs

employed.
