Brand Story
The Double Happiness brand originated in 1959, when the Shanghai Table Tennis Factory (later merged into Shanghai Double Happiness Co., Ltd.) successfully developed a table tennis ball meeting international standards to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the People's Republic of China. The name 'Double Happiness' was chosen to signify 'double joy'—the nation's celebration and the sport's advancement. In 1961, the 26th World Table Tennis Championships were held in Beijing, and Double Happiness was designated as the official equipment, forging a deep connection with Chinese table tennis. Over the years, the brand has accompanied the Chinese national team through historic victories, from 'ping-pong diplomacy' to Olympic gold medals. Double Happiness not only provides professional competition equipment but also embeds the spirit of sports into its products, becoming a source of pride for national industry. Its name, born from a specific historical moment, carries the dual joy of national celebration and sporting revival, making it a significant symbol of Chinese sports culture.
