PICKLEBALL

Building pickleball panels and blank paddles under one roof since 2010

ACP is the most sophisticated and reliable Pickleball panel and blank paddle manufacturer in North America, developing all our products under one roof in our 33,000 sq./ft manufacturing facility in Northern California.

As an AS9100 Certified manufacturer of advanced composite solutions for the aerospace industry for over 37 years, we build to the highest standards, for some of the top brands in the market. And as a leader in carbon fiber innovation, the stiffness of carbon fiber makes it the ultimate material for pickleball paddles, because it offers more control and finesse.

Another option are fiberglass paddles; which are recommended for players looking to add more power to their game. At the end of the day, you can’t go wrong with either material. Both types of pickleball paddles offer light-to-mid-weight options.

Why custom order your pickleball paddle from ACP?

Custom pickleball paddles are the best choice for any pickleball paddle suppliers because they are made to fit your customers’ specific design needs. Because of ACP’s years of knowledge and passion about the pickleball industry, we ensure that our R&D department will work with you to build test paddles to your specifications.

How to order your custom paddle from ACP:

First choose a core and then a composite for the face of the paddle. From there you can order full panels and cut your own pickleball paddle shapes or you can have ACP cut you shapes out of the panel.

Customized projects are the core part of who we are and what we do as a business. Your ideas, technical challenges and project requirements are important to us, and we provide custom solutions to meet your needs.
