DHS RS40 WTT 3-Star Recycled Material Table Tennis Ball
In what I believe is a first for a major table tennis company, DHS has released a ball made from post-consumer recycled materials. I’ve often wished there was a way to recycle the balls we use, but this is a great step in reducing waste. It is the official ball of WTT competitions until 2028. Available at Amazon and other usual table tennis supply stores.
