Keep digging the small well, sticking to the table tennis world

This is our concept from the very foundation.

Our mission is to closely look at table tennis and develop better equipment for the advancement and development of the sport. We would like to keep providing equipment to make table tennis more dynamic and more attractive as well as to help all table tennis fans live a more prosperous life.

Our Trademark Butterfly

Imagine that the player is the flower and we would like to be the butterfly flying around the flower providing the necessities

In natural world butterflies fly from flower to flower to help flowers bloom beautifully.

Our trademark "Butterfly" symbolises our faith, "Imagine that the player is the flower and we would like to be the butterfly flying around the flower providing the necessities." We hope to be a company that can keep serving players, just like butterflies serving flowers.
