Almost limitless individuality is the trademark of Albene which has been
supplying the market with sporting goods and promotional products for
25 years. The manufacture and finishing of balls is one of the core
competences of the Munich-based supplier. Together with company owner
Wolf Rüdiger, we take a look at making tennis balls in India.
25 years of Albene
Almost limitless
individuality
W
hen it comes to balls, Wolf Rüdiger is a
specialist. In 1991, he began importing
leather articles, and in the midst of the
leather processing industry, he soon met
ball manufacturers from India and Pakistan
where the production of hand-sewn leather balls has
a long tradition. A large proportion of the high-quality,
handmade professional balls still come from these regions.
Even though most balls for professional sport are no longer
made of leather but consist of various PU materials, the
experience of the manufacturers with whom Albene works
together guarantees the highest quality and comprehensive
know-how.
Ball pro with production expertise
Production expertise is one of the competitive advantages
that Wolf Rüdiger has developed over the 25 years he
has been in business. During this time, he has also steadily
and systematically expanded his assortment. In addition
to hand-made balls and leather gloves, Albene’s product
portfolio includes a selection of sporting goods and
promotional products for many professional sports and
leisure activities. From match and training footballs in varous
materials and qualities to FIFA-certified and competion-ready
balls right up to the leisure and promotional
ll – Albene is a professional in every regard. Volleyballs
