About Carlton - In the future

Carlton equipment designs and technologies provide a "window" into the future of badminton equipment supply and 2010 is no exception. The launch of the Prototype concept frame signals the vision of Carlton Badminton and sets the brand apart from the competition. Softening the impact of the shuttle on the string bed to improve touch and feel has traditionally been delivered through softening the grommets within the frame. Tasked with improving control by over 50%, Carlton’s R & D Department threw away the rule book creating a revolutionary frame profile that will fundamentally change the future of badminton racket design - Razor Guided Technology was born. Revolutionary grommetless construction at key points on the frame ensures direct contact between the cross strings and the racket frame. The increased synergy between the two racket elements ensures razor sharp racket control and feedback.

The future holds exciting prospects for Carlton. Innovative products and fashionable designs will give Carlton the edge, supporting the brand to reach its long term mission:

- for the performance player, to design and manufacture innovative equipment that drives elite players to success on the world stage
- for the recreational player, the production of equipment that maximises the enjoyment of players of all levels
