The Elite 1-Star plastic table tennis ball for advanced recreational games. 3 balls in the most common colour white and 3 balls in orange for better visibility due to more colour contrast. Diameter:40mm, in the new Poly 40+ quality. Since July 2014, the classic celluloid balls have been replaced by the new plastic balls at ITTF tournaments and then gradually in most high-ranking leagues. Plastic balls are more environmentally friendly to manufacture with comparable playing properties. By default, they are distinguished from conventional celluloid balls by the imprint "40+". By the way, Schildkroet's table tennis ball production goes back a long way. The so-called blow-press method was developed by Schildkroet in Mannheim as early as 1896, and the balls are still made today.
