More than 4 million mouse pads per year, since 15 years, meet the requirements of the most exigent clients.

MOUSE PAD MARKET

In 1989 NOVA creates the concept of printed advertising mouse pad. Since then NOVA has been in the lead at the mouse pad market depreciated by mass sale of low-quality mouse pad-shaped plastic bits, and troubled 3-4 years ago by the advent of optical and laser mice, forecasting mouse pads’ disappearance.

 

According to NOVA’s engineers on the watch for high-tech solutions, optical mice require as well as track-ball ones the use of a mouse pad.

 

Therefore they have developed and patented the new generation of special mouse pads under the trade name MicrOptic, which positions NOVA as a sole manufacturer offering a highly appropriate to new technologies product range.

 

Today many buyers of optical mice come to the same evident conclusion (20 to 30% of the mouse buyers purchase our special Optical mouse pad if they find it).

NOVA MOUSE PADS’ MERITS

During trackball mice’s era as well as optical or laser ones, NOVA mouse pads have always offered required characteristics to ensure extreme precision and great comfort in use.

 

- Extreme precision
- Battery power savings in cordless mice
- Self-cleaning of mouse trackballs
- Perfect sticking to any desk surface
- Exceptional durability

Patented key feature, ensuring the perfect optical precision of our mouse pads, is the arbitrary incrustation of micro-mirrors particles allowing:

 

- assured and prompt detection of all optical system (8000 DPI for Gamers mouse pads)
- amplification of the light signal providing maximum battery power savings in cordless mice

WHY A GAMERS MOUSE PAD

Relying on their 15 –year experience and on the high-tech progress, NOVA’s engineers have developed a range of special mouse pads for gamers: KILLER & WINNER .

 

« Gamers » share 25% of all purchasing of technical equipment. This target consists of keen professionals, technically qualified and absolutely able to appreciate the quality of the equipment they use. They are often young people, students, with limited means that they allocate to their passion so as to be the best.

 

They are in the right to expect from their purchases extreme performance as well as durability.

 

Such a need of an indispensable mouse pad increasing quickness and precision of the movement gave birth to the heaps of products, estimated justly by many tests, users and chats. Few of them are not cast with reproaches.

 

Modest but confident of their performance, KILLER & WINNER also look forward to any test, user experience or chat!

 

Their perfect glide and precision are amplifying with the most effective innovation –a centering frame, that helps user to re-center instinctively the mouse on the pad by the touch (contact of the fingers with the frame) or by the bouncing of the mouse against the frame.

 

NOVA guarantees KILLER & WINNER for 3 years against any defect affecting performance (under normal use).
