Hello,
This is Oscar, a designer at Nexy.
I am running the brand Nexy in Korea, and in this article, I would like to introduce Nexy’s next-generation service — the custom fitting racket production service.
Nexy was founded in 2007.
At first, it started as an agency for the German company Tibhar, in order to offer products that Tibhar did not have.
Since then, we have gone through a total of seven generations of product evolution.
Now, we are manufacturing rackets together with Korean factories in a completely new way.
Fitting Racket, simply put, means custom-made racket production.
I am not sure if the term “Fitting Racket” perfectly describes our service.
At first, we considered using the term “Custom Racket Production,” but finally decided on “Fitting Racket.” We thought this would better reflect the desire of passionate table tennis players who want a racket tailored exactly to them.
Table tennis lovers have a special affection for their rackets.
However, the products they purchase cannot always meet all of their needs.
Moreover, their requirements are not always the same — they change as their skills evolve.
When their skills are still developing, they may want the ball to travel faster than their own power. But as they improve, they may prefer a racket that responds exactly to their control.
In other words, their needs continuously evolve.
And making rackets that adapt to these evolving needs — that is the very definition of the Fitting Racket Service.
There are two major patents applied to this service:
All of Nexy’s recently made-in-Korea rackets are produced using these two technologies. Let’s take a look.
Nexy rackets are manufactured with small holes drilled into the plies (see diagram below).
These holes serve as a standardized guide throughout different machines during production.
As a result, products are consistently mass-produced with high precision.
After the drilling process, the handle is attached.
At this stage, the holes again serve an important role: wooden pins are inserted to firmly secure the two sides of the handle.
When the handles are attached top and bottom, a small wooden pin is placed between them.
As shown in the photo, this pin remains inside the handle after completion.
Through this process, the handle becomes firmly fixed and will not easily come off under any circumstances.
The second patent is one of the core technologies also applied to the Fitting Racket.
Typically, two types of glue are used in racket production. Nexy, however, developed and uses an additional type: polyurethane adhesive.
By using polyurethane, bonding is achieved with almost no weight increase. This allows Nexy rackets to gain elasticity through multiple gluing processes.
In other words, by applying the gluing process two or three times, we can significantly increase the elasticity of the racket.
For example, Nexy’s “Eiger” blade is often evaluated as being more powerful than standard rackets. One user mentioned that while it was too bouncy in a regular training hall, it turned out to be extremely powerful in tournament play — evidence of its strong elasticity.
How the Nexy Fitting Racket Service Works
The full process will proceed in the following four steps:
Step 1: Place Your Order
Visit www.nexy.com and fill out the fitting form with your desired specifications.
Step 2: First Sample Delivery
Based on your input, we will create and send a first sample racket.
This package will also include a feedback form where you can further refine your preferences for the final product.
Step 3: Provide Feedback
Try playing with the first sample and let us know how it feels.
Then, fill out the feedback form and send it to us via email with any specific comments.
Step 4: Final Racket Delivery
We’ll produce the final racket incorporating your feedback and deliver it to you.
Service Cost
You will receive two rackets in total (sample + final version), and the full service including shipping costs is $250 USD.
At the moment, our website is not fully functional, so online ordering may not work properly.
If you send me your order by email, I will carefully communicate your requests to the factory and make sure everything is handled properly.
Please send your order to the following email address:

Why Nexy’s Fitting Racket Service is Special
There are two major patents applied to this service:
- A patent related to racket manufacturing methods
- A patent related to bonding technology
All of Nexy’s recently made-in-Korea rackets are produced using these two technologies. Let’s take a look.
1. Patent on Racket Manufacturing Method
Nexy rackets are manufactured with small holes drilled into the plies (see diagram below).
These holes serve as a standardized guide throughout different machines during production.
As a result, products are consistently mass-produced with high precision.
After the drilling process, the handle is attached.
At this stage, the holes again serve an important role: wooden pins are inserted to firmly secure the two sides of the handle.
When the handles are attached top and bottom, a small wooden pin is placed between them.
As shown in the photo, this pin remains inside the handle after completion.
Through this process, the handle becomes firmly fixed and will not easily come off under any circumstances.
2. Patent on Bonding Method
The second patent is one of the core technologies also applied to the Fitting Racket.
Typically, two types of glue are used in racket production. Nexy, however, developed and uses an additional type: polyurethane adhesive.
By using polyurethane, bonding is achieved with almost no weight increase. This allows Nexy rackets to gain elasticity through multiple gluing processes.
In other words, by applying the gluing process two or three times, we can significantly increase the elasticity of the racket.
For example, Nexy’s “Eiger” blade is often evaluated as being more powerful than standard rackets. One user mentioned that while it was too bouncy in a regular training hall, it turned out to be extremely powerful in tournament play — evidence of its strong elasticity.
Production Process After Ordering
- Based on the customer’s basic information, our engineers select the appropriate wood composition and adhesives using accumulated sampling data, and produce the blade.
- According to the customer’s details, processing such as balance adjustment, sanding, grip shaping, and additional part assembly is carried out.
- After external inspection and bonding inspection, a first sample is delivered to the customer.
- The customer tests the first sample, then sends feedback for improvements. They may also consult directly with our engineers to finalize the racket. Based on the sample data and feedback, a new final racket is produced.
- The customer’s production data is securely stored at Nexy and used as a reference for producing identical or improved rackets in the future.
- The customer receives both the first sample racket and the final finished racket (two rackets in total).
- For the first sample, the grip is supplied in a single color. If a preferred color is specified at the time of order, it will be produced accordingly. (Available colors: black, bright red, orange, gray, sky blue)
