Italian Padel – Leader in padel courts
Success born from a passion for padel and Italian excellence.
In a constantly expanding market, Italian Padel is now the benchmark for those who want to invest in padel with a guarantee of quality, innovation, and safety.
Founded in 2016 by Claudio Galuppini, a visionary entrepreneur and passionate padel player, Italian Padel was created under the wing of Forgiafer Srl, a historic Lombardy-based company active since 1992 in the design and manufacture of metal structures.
Today, with over 3,000 padel courts installed in 28 countries and a community of over 340,000 players, our brand is synonymous with Italian excellence around the world.
