After the size of the ball, the
manufacturing material should be the second criterion to take into account.
Here are some options for different environments:
EVA Foam
Satinised vinyl foam, also known as EVA,
is a synthetic foam commonly used for children's products.
This foam has adhesive properties and
also has a very soft touch for the training levels of the sport.
Environment: indoors. Not recommended
for abrasive floors.
Regular Rubber
We refer to regular rubber as ‘normal’
rubber made from synthetic products.
Suitable for adverse situations with
excellent grip on the floor.
Environment: outdoors. Recommended for
abrasive floors.
Cellular Rubber
Cellular rubber is a very resistant high
quality rubber, suitable for harsh environments.
This rubber has superior resistance
guaranteed by ISO9002 quality control.
Environment: indoors and outdoors.
Recommended for abrasive floors.
Synthetic Leather
Synthetic leather consists of a
fibre base and a surface coating. It is a very easy material to clean, whether
dry or damp.
In this category, we divide synthetic
leather into two materials: PVC and Polyurethane.
Polyvinyl chloride, known as PVC,
is one of the most widely produced plastics in the world and has a wide range
of applications.
PVC belongs to the mid-range of
materials with adequate adhesion and resistance for school use.
Environment: indoors and outdoors. It
can be used on abrasive floors.
Polyurethane, better known as PU,
is a foam that is more rigid than EVA but very flexible and adherent.
This material has components such as
flexibility, lightness, cut resistance and the impossibility of deformation.
Environment: indoors. Not recommended for abrasive
floors.
