MOLTEN LAUNCHES NEW FOOTBALL DESIGNED FOR UK WET WEATHER
Molten, the world’s leading manufacturer of quality footballs, launches its latest football, the FIFA Approved, VG-5000AW today, June 11, 2009. Specifically designed for UK wet weather conditions, the new football does not absorb water, thereby maintaining its weight and shape throughout the game.
Unlike all other makes of football, which are produced using the traditional method of hand-stitching, Molten’s new football is manufactured using state-of-the-art, Molten-patented ACENTEC technology. This ground-breaking, cross-fusion bonding technique eliminates old-fashioned stitching and stitch holes. The result is a ball that does not absorb water in wet weather conditions maintaining a constant weight and shape throughout the game.
Not only this, the absence of hand-stitched seams produces a football with a smooth and even surface, preventing mud from adhering to the ball and making for a perfectly balanced and round ball and one that can be controlled as easily in wet weather as in dry weather In addition, the ball loses little of its pressure after use. This new Molten technology has been shown to improve shooting and passing accuracy by a staggering 220%* when compared with other FIFA Approved hand-stitched footballs.
Molten’s new VG-5000AW is manufactured in high-gloss, orange polyurethane skin, which makes it highly visible and its foam backing affords ultimate softness, making it a much sought after ball. It is available in size 5 and can be purchased from www.moltensports.co.uk.
