About the Brand

L-TEC Premium strings were founded in 2011.  The strings and accompanying stringing system are the culmination of over 20 years of research, string design and development by John Elliot.  Mr. Elliot, sometimes referred to as the “Father of Polyester Strings,” has more than 20 years experience in creating and manufacturing top quality monofilament co-polymer and polyester tennis strings. He has been instrumental in developing some of the most successful and well-known racquet strings in the market today.  His refusal to be bound by conventional thinking has allowed him to become one of the great innovators in the world of tennis strings and stringing technology.  His animated passion and creative approach to quality stringing makes him an immensely popular speaker and stringing instructor.

L-TEC as a brand name is an acronym that stands for "Low-Tension, Energy & Control."  L-TEC is proud of its deep and rich international roots.  While designed by a French engineer, the string is produced in Great Britain.  Intense playtesting is conducted by a wide range of players including professionals and highly ranked amateurs from Argentina, Canada, France, and the United States. L-TEC was initially released in the United States and after several months of studying player response was given clearance to be released to the world market.

The L-TEC products and stringing system are much more than a new product line.  They represent a new paradigm…an exciting new way of enabling tennis players to reach their on-court potential.  The strings incorporate the newest technology, materials and modern construction techniques.  The JET Method of  stringing utilizes specific techniques to unleash the full potential of these state-of-the-art products.  In short L-TEC strings, installed with the JET Method of stringing  will help you play better tennis.
