Tretorn tennis balls: inventor of the pressureless tennis ball
The Swedish cult brand Tretorn was founded back in 1891 in Helsingborg. Initially, the focus was on manufacturing galoshes – waterproof overshoes that provided comfort and warm feet in the harsh weather conditions of Swedish winters. The first tennis ball was made in 1902. Ever since, Tretorn has been known as a professional ball supplier for tennis tournaments. In the Tennis-Point online shop, you can order Tretorn tennis balls and experience the difference for yourself.
What tennis balls does Tretorn offer?
In the 1950s, Tretorn experimented with trainers – lightweight, sporty shoes with sturdy rubber soles – and made them popular among tennis players too. Further tennis ball innovations followed in the 60s, until Tretorn tennis balls were finally used at the French Open in 1977. When the very first pressureless ball was introduced in 1983, it was none other than Björn Borg who made this ball famous worldwide. Tretorn kept innovating relentlessly in the years that followed: tennis balls partly filled with compressed air came next, along with numerous new rubber-based materials. Nowadays, Tretorn tennis balls are predominantly air-filled.
