History
Exel Sports Discs was established in 2014 when the parent company, Exel Sports—a renowned Finnish sports equipment manufacturer founded in 1960—decided to expand into the growing disc golf market. With extensive experience in composite materials and polymer technologies from their successful production of cross-country ski poles, hockey sticks, and floorball equipment, Exel was well-positioned to apply their materials expertise to disc golf. The company launched their disc golf line with the Nordic Series, featuring the Helsinki driver, Tampere midrange, and Turku putter, each utilizing proprietary polymer blends developed in Exel's materials laboratory. The discs quickly gained attention for their exceptional durability and consistency, particularly in cold weather conditions where standard plastics often become brittle. Exel differentiated themselves through their scientific approach to disc production, employing the same rigorous quality control and testing procedures used in their professional winter sports equipment. The company has established a strong presence in the Nordic countries, where disc golf has seen explosive growth, and has gradually expanded into central Europe and North America through strategic partnerships with professional players and tournaments. Exel's background as an established sports equipment manufacturer has given them credibility in the disc golf market, particularly among players who appreciate the technical aspects of equipment design and materials science. While primarily focused on performance-oriented players, Exel continues to invest in research and development, regularly introducing new materials and mold designs that push the boundaries of what's possible in disc flight characteristics and durability.
