The only padel ball with full 360° design freedom. Engineered in Berlin for the clubs, tournaments, and brands moving the sport forward.
Padlab is a padel ball laboratory in Berlin. We build balls around two ideas the industry ignored: that a ball should last longer in real conditions, and carry your identity across its entire surface — not a 2cm logo zone.
Every detail intentional. The felt, the seam, the design, the tin. Engineered to the standard of Apple, Porsche, Patek — for a sport that deserves it.
Higher dynamic friction than category standard. More spin, sharper control. Validated in comparative lab testing.
Less felt wear over a session, engineered for padel's abrasion profile — not adapted from tennis. Fewer tins, lower cost per match.
The only padel ball with full 360° design freedom. Wraparound graphics, multi-color, coverage no other brand offers.
Premium isn't only a cost line — it can be a return. Two ways a Padlab run works on the buyer's side of the ledger.
For a club running courts from open to close, ball replacement is a standing expense. Less felt wear over a session means balls hold playable condition longer — which compounds into fewer reorders across a season and a lower effective cost per match. The premium isn't paid once; it's amortised every time the courts are full.
A standard ball gives a sponsor a 2cm logo zone. A fully branded ball is the asset. Tournaments and clubs can build the ball into sponsorship packages, member tiers, and limited editions — turning a consumable into something with its own commercial value, and a reason for a sponsor to pay for the surface.
Economic outcomes depend on your courts, climate, play intensity, and commercial model. We model the cost-per-match and branding case with you against your actual volumes before any production run.
Most padel balls are tennis balls wearing a different label. We started from the court up — built for how padel actually wears a ball, and for the brands that want the whole surface, not a corner of it.
Standard balls allow a small logo on a fixed zone. Padlab balls don't. Full 360° print across the entire surface — the ball becomes part of your brand, not just a vehicle for it.
