Passion for padel and Italian excellence is the foundation for this success.

In an ever-expanding market, Italian Padel is now the gold standard for investors seeking quality, innovation and safety.

Italian Padel was founded in 2016 by Claudio Galuppini, a visionary entrepreneur and passionate padel player. It was established under the umbrella of Forgiafer S.r.l, a Lombardy-based company that has specialised in designing and manufacturing metal structures since 1992.

With over 3,000 padel courts installed in 28 countries and a community of more than 340,000 players, our brand has become a symbol of Italian excellence worldwide.

In 2024, it completed 37% of the new courts in Italy (Source: Padel Magazine).
