Description

Thermoforming-Ready Core for Competitive Paddle Builds
Gen 3 Polymer Core is engineered for thermoformed construction environments where heat, pressure, and edge reinforcement demand higher structural stability than baseline cores. It is designed to maintain consistent cell integrity during forming—supporting faster response, stable face feel, and durability for performance-driven SKUs.

Paddle Configuration System (Core-Only Technical Profile)

  • Core Structure: Gen 3 Polymer Core — polymer honeycomb optimized for thermoforming pressure/heat resistance
  • Construction Method Compatibility: Thermoformed builds (primary); cold-pressed builds (project-dependent)
  • Composite Engineering (Edge Reinforcement Ready): perimeter foam injection compatibility for torsional stability
  • Performance Variables (Typical Tuning): response speed, torsional stability, impact resistance, sweet spot efficiency
  • Thickness Options: 10mm / 13mm / 14mm / 16mm / 18mm

Why it performs in thermoformed programs

  • Thermoformed Stability: formulated to resist cell deformation under high temperature and pressure, helping keep the face profile stable after forming
  • Edge-Foam Integration: designed for seamless perimeter foam injection to improve twist resistance on off-center hits
  • Sweet Spot Efficiency: edge reinforcement plus the Gen 3 structure supports a larger effective hitting area compared with many traditional baseline cores

Positioning vs. Classic PP Honeycomb
Compared with classic PP honeycomb, Gen 3 Polymer Core is typically selected for faster response and higher impact durability in competitive programs. PP honeycomb often fits control-first, value-to-mainstream lines, while Gen 3 is preferred when a build targets a more aggressive balance of stability, durability, and high-intensity play.

Manufacturing Consistency for OEM/ODM Programs
WERiDON supports bulk production with process control from R&D to production execution, helping maintain tight tolerances and repeatable core integrity across batches for thermoformed performance lines.
