To improve at the game, the quality of the equipment you play with is key to achieve consistent and advanced shots. But that’s not all. In this 2 of 3 episodes, multiple World Champion and recent World Games Gold Medalist Therese Klompenhouwer shares her tips on how to be good at the game. We are proud at Saluc SA and Iwan Simonis SA to be the official ball and cloth suppliers to virtually all major tournaments around the world.

****PRODUCT LAUNCH**** We are delighted to announce the launch of the new Reference cloth in Carom. The new Simonis 330 Rapide replaces our iconic Simonis 300 for increased performances and becomes the official cloth for the 2025 UMB season, the Tour of the international governing body for Carom billiards. In 1980, the Simonis 300 set new standards in terms of quality and performance for carom cloths. Thanks to its unrivalled combination for ball speed and control, it quickly became the reference cloth for amateur and professional carom players, clubs and sports organisations around the world. Even though its characteristics still remained unmatched to this day, Iwan Simonis launches with the Simonis 330 Rapide a cloth which offers a higher ball speed with an optimal ball control for players to reach new heights in this elitist billiard discipline. Made of 90% Wool and 10% Nylon, the Simonis 330 Rapide offers the same quality and durability as its predecessor for a use both suitable in tournaments and clubs. As the World's leading manufacturer for Carom, American pool and Pyramid cloths, we are proud to keep bringing constant innovations to the billiard industry, 345 years after our company creation.

We are delighted to announce Iwan Simonis SA and Saluc SA have signed a sponsorship agreement with the 2 most emblematic Vietnamese pool players. Nguyễn Anh Tuấn, aka Tkon Nguyen, claimed 8 national championships and distinguished himself at the SEA games, Hanoi Open and Premier League Pool in the US.

Bui Truong An, aka An Nhiệt, is the youngest Vietnamese athlete to have become professional player. He is an inspiration for an entire generation who now thrives to pursue their passion and reach new heights. These 2 players embody the incredible enthusiasm of their country for pool and the ambition to become the leading nation in all the major international tournaments. As World’s leading billiard cloth and ball manufacturers, it was logical for Iwan Simonis and Saluc to support such iconic players and to contribute to the extraordinary development of pool in Vietnam. Also, to ensure players benefit from the best equipment, Iwan Simonis and Saluc signed a partnership agreement with RA Billiards Co., Ltd who becomes one of the main distributors of our brands in Vietnam.

We are delighted to announce Iwan Simonis will be the official cloth supplier for the 2025 UMB season. In any sports, the playing surface is the most important ingredient to master the game to perfection. This is even more true when we talk about billiard, and Carom in particular. Billiard is a precision game and the cloth is like a tyre on a car. It gives you the control and grip you need to position the ball exactly where you want it to go, even at high speed. With Simonis cloths, players are able to achieve advanced shots thanks to the ultimate combination for speed and accuracy. They benefit from cloths that roll perfectly straight with optimal and predictable rebounds. This excellence and consistency from one Simonis cloth to another is the reason why most records in billiard have been achieved with Iwan Simonis. As the international governing body for Carom billiards, we are very proud the Union Mondiale de Billard (UMB) resumes its partnership with the oldest billiard cloth manufacturer in the World.
