Tennis ball cloth

Tennis ball cloth or melton has been manufactured at our factory in the West of England since the early 20th century, originally under the Playne’s name that’s still recognised today.

Nearly 100 years of tradition and highly sophisticated manufacturing techniques have been combined to produce a superior performing product, which is now the choice of all the leading manufacturers and brands in the tennis industry.

Our resume includes Dunlop Fort, Slazenger Wimbledon, Head ATP, Tretorn, Tecnifibre, Wilson Tour and the Wilson US Open tennis ball brands.

Playne’s tennis cloth by Milliken is selected for three grand slam tournaments; Wimbledon, the French Open and the Australian Open, and many other major tournaments around the world.
