The market  paddle  continues its rapid growth in France, and with it, the expectations of clubs, local authorities, and investors are evolving. Today, a pitch of  paddle  It is no longer simply a sports structure: it must combine aesthetics, durability, playing comfort and ease of maintenance.

With its range  " Atmosphere Padel » , the  SAE Group  develops technical references designed to meet the requirements of the French market, both indoors and outdoors.

A manufacturing process designed to withstand the real-world constraints of the field

Le  SAE Group  relying on entirely  galvanized  et  powder-coated  to ensure excellent durability, even in environments heavily exposed to harsh weather. Outdoor models, in particular, benefit from  hot-dip galvanizing  in a zinc bath  450°C , conforms to the standard  ISO 9227 .

All models in the range use:

  • another  reinforced steel structure ,
  • another  316L stainless steel bolts ,
  • a glazing made of  tempered glass 10 or 12 mm  depending on the version,
  • a lawn  FAST PRO® semi-sanded textured monofilament ,
  • lighting  LED ATLANTIDE® 3x320W .

The entire site also complies with the  FFT padel specifications  as well as the constraints  Eurocodes  depending on the areas where they are located.

The FIXED model: the robust and versatile solution

The model  FIXED  constitutes the classic reference of the range  Ambience Padel Designed for permanent installation on a concrete slab, it relies on a fixing system using anchor plates.  250x250x12 mm  with studs  M16x150 .

With its steel tube posts  120x60x3 mm  and its mesh wire panels  50x50x4 mm This model prioritizes rigidity and stability.

Its compact dimensions ( 20,47 x 10,47 m on the ground ) allow for optimized installation, both for private clubs and for municipal facilities.

The self-supporting model: installing a padel court without specific foundations

Among the most distinctive references of  SAE  figure the model  FREESTANDING Its main advantage: allowing installation without specific foundations or heavy fixings thanks to a system of reinforced upper and lower peripheral belts.

This approach perfectly addresses the issues:

  • by temporary installations ,
  • de  constrained sites ,
  • by events Experiences ,
  • or even of land where civil engineering works must be limited.

The pitch nevertheless retains a robust structure thanks to steel posts  120x60x3 mm  and dual-material crossbeams  steel/aluminum  intended for the support of wire mesh panels.

Another interesting point: this model complies with the zones  Eurocodes 1 to 4 This allows it to be established in areas subject to varying climatic constraints.

Panoramic models: visual immersion and a premium experience

The premium segment of the market is currently largely driven by land.  panoramic .  SAE  This approach is offered in two distinct versions:  Indoor  et  Outdoor .

Indoor panoramic: visual fluidity and optimized maintenance

The panoramic indoor model is distinguished by:

  • its tempered glass  12 mm ,
  • its lightweight and elegant structure,
  • its reinforced one-piece corners,
  • and its new system of wire mesh panels  2×1 m monoblocks .

One of the strengths highlighted by  SAE  concerns the  simplified maintenance  : in case of damage, it is no longer necessary to dismantle an entire section of the structure.

The surface treatment also differs from outdoor use. Here,  SAE  uses galvanized steel  Sendzimir , particularly suitable for indoor environments thanks to its smooth and homogeneous surface which promotes high-quality powder coating.

Panoramic Outdoor: designed for outdoor display

The outdoor version retains the panoramic aesthetic while reinforcing the structural sections to meet climatic constraints.

We find in particular:

  • tubular corner posts  120x120x3 mm ,
  • another  full hot-dip galvanizing ,
  • and compliance     Suitable for zones 1 and 2.

As with the indoor version,  SAE  retains its monobloc panel system, facilitating technical interventions and accelerating installation times.

An industrial approach geared towards sustainability

Beyond the technical characteristics, the strategy  SAE  seems clearly geared towards three major challenges in the current market:

  • la  reduced maintenance costs ,
  • la  speed of installation ,
  • and the  infrastructure sustainability .

In a sector where operators are now looking for land capable of absorbing high intensity of use while maintaining a premium aesthetic, this industrial approach makes perfect sense.

With its various references —  FIXED ,  FREESTANDING ,  Indoor Panoramic  et  Outdoor  - the  SAE Group  today offers a range capable of adapting to club projects as well as event facilities or new generation premium complexes.
