Founded in Germany in 1969, Shijiazhuang Chaofeng Sporting Goods Sales Co., Ltd. is a global brand of high-quality table tennis sports products, specializing in R&D, production and sales of table tennis sports equipment manufacturers
The history of TIBHAR can be traced back to the sports school in Saarbrücken, founded in 1959 (the capital of Saarland, Germany), where the internationally renowned table tennis coach and former world-class table tennis player Tibor Harangozo opened the international table tennis course. The reputation of TIBHAR International Table Tennis Courses has grown year by year, which has also laid a good foundation for TIBHAR to sell table tennis sports equipment to table tennis players and amateurs of table tennis.
TIBHAR was founded in 1969 by Tibor Harangozo, who named the company TIBHAR by taking the name "Tib" and "Har" from his name. After his death in 1978, the company continued to use the name "TIBHAR", and today TIBHAR has developed into a synonym for high-quality table tennis products worldwide.
In 1969, TIBHAR started producing table tennis products. Initially, TIBHAR developed and produced rubber sets and base plates for the specific requirements of athletes, but soon TIBHAR's product range quickly expanded to include more areas. Today, TIBHAR's product range is complete and covers a wide range of table tennis equipment from amateur leisure activities to world-class competitions.
IN 1978, ERWIN BERG BECAME THE HEAD OF THE COMPANY, WHICH AT THAT TIME WAS A SMALL WHOLESALER OF TABLE TENNIS EQUIPMENT. Erwin Berg embarked on a new corporate strategy and positioning, and TIBHAR became a manufacturer of table tennis equipment, developing, producing and marketing TIBHAR's own products. Erwin Berg is also an experienced table tennis coach in Germany and was a member of the Federal Republic of Germany Table Tennis National Team. He was the only one at the time who proposed to develop rubber based on the characteristics of the athletes themselves.
With the development and production of rubber sheets with different characteristics, TIBHAR has become famous in the world. TIBHAR worked closely with rubber manufacturers to create a new era of rubber nesting, and TIBHAR gradually grew to become the world's number one producer of new rubber products. THE SECOND MAJOR DEVELOPMENT WAS TIBHAR'S DEVELOPMENT AND PRODUCTION OF ITS OWN BASE WOOD, I.E. THE USE OF SOFT AND RESILIENT AYOUS WOOD, WHICH WAS A COMPLETELY NEW CONCEPT AT THE TIME. After the development of rubber and base wood, TIBHAR also started to produce and sell other table tennis products. TIBHAR is a brand new speed glue that is the best in the world to this day. At the same time, TIBHAR's table tennis clothing series products are also known all over the world for their fashion and high quality.
After Erwin Berg became the head of TIBHAR, TIBHAR began to develop and produce high-quality equipment for professional table tennis players, constantly seeking new solutions and opening new paths for athletes. This is also the result of TIBHAR's close partnership with the world's best table tennis players and coaches.
Today, TIBHAR sponsors a large number of national table tennis teams, associations and athletes. TIBHAR HAS BECOME A BIG FAMILY IN TABLE TENNIS, NOT ONLY BECAUSE OF THE CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TIBHAR AND THE ATHLETES, BUT ALSO BECAUSE OF THIS SENSE OF BELONGING BETWEEN THE ATHLETES AND TIBHAR. FOR EXAMPLE, FRENCH STARS SHEILA AND DAMION EROL, WHO HAVE BEEN SIGNED WITH TIBHAR FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS AND FOR WHOM TIBHAR IS NOT JUST A SPONSORED RELATIONSHIP, BUT A FAMILY THAT THEY ALREADY BELONG TO. For more than 30 years, Erwin Berg has been involved in major international table tennis competitions and has been following the technical and conceptual development of the sport. Every year he visits schools and youth teams in Europe in search of talented athletes. Samsonov was discovered by Mr. Berg, who arranged for Samsonov to train at the Olympic Table Tennis Center in Heidelberg, and since then Samsonov has spent most of his time in Germany, with Erwin Berg becoming his "second father", supporting the young athlete and helping him forge a fresh start. IT WAS THANKS TO TIBHAR'S SUPPORT THAT SAMSONOV WAS ABLE TO CONCENTRATE ON TRAINING, KEEP IMPROVING, DEVELOP HIS OWN UNIQUE STYLE, AND BECOME AN EXCELLENT TABLE TENNIS PLAYER.
Today, TIBHAR is represented in more than 100 countries, but the culture and philosophy developed by Erwin Berg remain the same!
