Spanish based Enebe Padel has launched a 2016 range of tennis paddles featuring its top-of-the-line Spitfire TeXtreme, manufactured using TeXtreme carbon fibre fabrics.

“Using TeXtreme in our paddles has contributed to increased durability along with improvements in strength while achieving ultra-light weight,” commented Pilar Osca, Chief Marketing Officer of Enebe Sports Group.

“This fibre is definitely lighter than the carbon fibre generally used and resulted in a measurable increase in power and shot accuracy. Our technical team has been able to deliver a high performance paddle to players that wasn’t possible with other carbon fibre materials.”

Sports applications

TeXtreme Spread Tow reinforcements are designed for making ultra-light composites. TeXtreme Technology is flexible and tow-size independent, which enables the development of optimized reinforcement solutions tailor-made for specific application needs.

The company has supplied its technology to a range of sports companies, including Bauer Hockey, Prince Tennis, Cobra Puma Golf, Stiga Table Tennis and Bell Helmets.

“We are excited to have a presence in yet another sport and see that our materials bring value to so many different applications. For producing lightweight composite products, the TeXtreme Technology again proves to be the best choice in materials,” said Andreas Martsman, VP of Marketing & Sales at Oxeon, the producer of TeXtreme.
