Our heritage

Half a Century of Craftsmanship

We have manufactured combat sports equipment since 1976 — nearly fifty years, across two generations of the same family, doing one thing and doing it properly.

With 150+ machines and 1,000,000+ products a year made entirely in-house, we control every stage ourselves. That's how quality stays consistent and delivery dates stay dependable, order after order, market after market.

We compete on standard, not on shortcuts. It's why our oldest brand partnerships are measured in decades.

Long-term vision

We Invest in Partners, Not Transactions

Our ambition is simple: to be the manufacturing partner brands build their future on. For the right retail partner we're ready to invest for the long term — co-developing products, dedicating capacity, and growing your range as your market grows.

That's the difference between a factory that fills an order and a partner that helps build a brand. We're here for the second kind of relationship.
