Step 1: Choosing Your Path – OEM or ODM?
This is the starting point for any partnership, and understanding the difference is crucial.
- OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)
- The Core: You provide the complete product design, specifications, and technical requirements. We manufacture it exactly to your blueprint.
- Who is it for? Established brands with in-house design teams and a very specific, unique vision for their product. You maintain full creative control over every detail.
- ODM (Original Design Manufacturer)
- The Core: We provide a portfolio of market-tested, proven racket molds and designs. You choose a model, and we customize it with your branding, colors, and minor modifications.
- Who is it for? Start-ups or distributors who want a fast time-to-market and wish to leverage our R&D to launch high-quality products efficiently.
Key Takeaway: Your brand strategy, budget, and desired launch timeline are the key factors in deciding between OEM and ODM.
Step 2: The Product Journey – 5 Core Stages of Customization
Whether you choose OEM or ODM, we follow a rigorous five-step process to ensure the final product perfectly matches your vision.
- Consultation & Design Confirmation
- Communication is everything. We start with an in-depth discussion about your brand story, target player (beginner, intermediate, pro), desired performance (power, control, or hybrid), and price point.
- For OEM clients, we review your technical drawings for feasibility. For ODM clients, we present our range of molds and design options.
- Material Selection
- The source of performance. Based on your product positioning, we provide expert recommendations on materials, including:
- Face: 3K, 12K, or 18K Carbon Fiber or Fiberglass, which determines the racket’s stiffness and power.
- Core: EVA foam in various densities, which defines the feel, control, and ball-exit speed.
- Surface: Glossy, matte, or 3D textured finishes to influence ball spin.
- The source of performance. Based on your product positioning, we provide expert recommendations on materials, including:
- Prototyping & Feedback
- Seeing is believing. We will produce a physical sample for you to test and approve. This is the most critical stage to validate the design, feel, and performance. We will refine the prototype based on your feedback until it’s perfect.
- Mass Production & Quality Control (QC)
- Quality is our commitment. Once the sample is approved, mass production begins. Our strict QC system monitors every stage—from raw material inspection to in-process checks and final product testing—to guarantee consistency and excellence in every single racket.
- Packaging & Logistics
- The final mile. We offer custom packaging solutions to make your product stand out on the shelf. We also coordinate global logistics to ensure your shipment arrives safely and on time at your desired destination.
