Taizhou Intop Industry & Trade: New Products Ignite Canton Fair, Baseball Equipment Wins Global Acclaim

In the Canton Fair exhibition hall in November, the booth of Taizhou Intop Industry & Trade Co., Ltd. was always crowded with visitors. As a professional manufacturer of baseball, softball, baseball gloves and football goal products, this enterprise from Taizhou Gaogang Science and Innovation Park delivered an outstanding performance in the sports goods exhibition area of the 3rd phase of the 138th Canton Fair. It received buyers from 28 countries and regions within four days of the exhibition, and the consultation volume for new products increased by more than 40% compared with previous sessions, making it a "popular dark horse" in the segmented field.

"From buyers of American professional leagues to suppliers of campus sports in Southeast Asia, the demand differences in different markets are great, but the recognition of new products is surprisingly consistent," the on-site person in charge said, pointing to the star products on the exhibition stand. The lightweight professional baseball launched at this exhibition became the focus. It adopts an improved wool core and waterproof PU surface, and enhances durability through 12 stitching processes. At the same time, its weight is 15% lighter than traditional products, perfectly adapting to the different scenario needs of teenagers and adults. The 3D-fitted baseball gloves displayed together showed more technical sincerity. They used ergonomic cutting and breathable mesh interlayer, and the wear-resistant coating at the finger tips passed 5,000 impact tests. As soon as they were launched, they received an intended order of 3,000 pairs from European customers.

The innovation of the goal series also impressed overseas merchants. The UV-resistant football goals developed for the characteristics of outdoor venues adopt recyclable aluminum alloy frames and FSC-certified wood bases. They not only meet the EU environmental protection standards, but also can withstand high-temperature exposure in tropical regions. Buyers from Southeast Asia and South America confirmed the shipment of samples on site. These innovations accurately conform to the current global mainstream trend of "performance upgrading + green environmental protection" in sports equipment. Just as the industry report points out, sustainable materials and ergonomic design have become the core competitiveness of the baseball equipment market.

On the electronic screen in the booth, the customer source areas were updated in real time. In addition to the traditional markets in Europe and America, the consultation volume from emerging markets such as the Middle East and Africa increased significantly year-on-year. Gustavo, a buyer from Brazil, said bluntly after experiencing the new products: "The fit of the gloves and the flight stability of the ball exceed expectations, and this company understands professional needs better than our current suppliers." By the fifth day of the exhibition, Intop Industry & Trade had accumulated 87 intended customers, 35% of which were from emerging markets that were developed for the first time.
