SCHÖPP®-Champion tennis surface

Basic information

Introducing the Perfect-Glide Tennis Granules, a breakthrough in the tennis industry. In the past, sliding surfaces used in tennis courts had several flaws attributed to the granules employed. Quartz sand, for instance, proved to be too hard and caused rapid deterioration of the base coverings. On the other hand, various rubber granules were too soft and had irregular shapes, resulting in quick wear and tear. Moreover, both types of sliding media generated dust, leading to unpleasant side effects such as breathing difficulties. Additionally, they caused discoloration of clothing and required extensive cleaning in the tennis hall and social areas.

However, with the advent of a new manufacturing process, significant advancements have been made. The Perfect-Glide tennis granules are not derived from a rubber block like traditional granules. Instead, they are spun into threads using an extruder and then cut into precise lengths in a cooling bath. This innovative production method allows the creation of fine extruder micro-granules, free from dust and shaped optimally in the form of lenses. With Perfect-Glide tennis granules, you can enjoy a superior sliding surface without the drawbacks experienced with conventional materials.
