A football is a small, exacting object. This is how ours is made — the same sequence that built the balls of 1998, refined by everything learned since.
Order matters here — each step depends on the one before it.
Microfibre, recycled PU, PU and TPU arrive and are inspected. Nothing enters the floor that would not survive a match.
Cover material is laminated with its lining fabrics — Polyester/Cotton, Viscose and Nylex — over PE and Latex foams, with rubber sheets reserved for the top-end balls. The build-up of layers is what separates a ClubBall from an EliteBall.
Individual panels are cut from the laminated sheets — 32, 18, 8, 6 or 4, depending on the ball.
Panels are printed and finished by hand — always in solvent-proof, two-component inks: water-repellent, and holding their quality for far longer on the pitch. Colourway, crest, sponsor, competition marks. This is where a ball becomes yours.
Butyl, latex, SR and SR-winding bladders are gathered, inflated and checked for leaks before they ever go inside a ball.
The ball is closed by one of five methods — first among them our exclusive SublimeWeld™, then hand-stitched, machine-stitched, thermo bonded, or hybrid.
Inflation, then testing: sphericity, rebound, air and shape retention, water uptake. Balls are checked once more for leaks.
The finished balls are washed, deflated and boxed — ready for a season, or a tournament.
Not renders — our floor in Sialkot, photographed at work. Drag through.
Microfibre and recycled PU for elite play, PU and TPU where durability leads — laminated over Polyester/Cotton, Viscose and Nylex linings with PE and Latex foams, and rubber sheets on the top-end balls.
Butyl holds air longest; latex gives the softest touch; SR winding adds shape memory.
SublimeWeld™ — ours alone — then hand-stitched, machine-stitched, thermo bonded, and hybrid.
We hold our own naming. The testing behind each standard is the real thing.
