The ATP and PROSERIES have announced a new partnership in which PROSERIES Ice Wraps become the Official Ice Wrap of the ATP World Tour. The sports medicine company receives worldwide marketing rights in a two-year affiliation through 2015.

PROSERIES manufactures a line of ice wraps used to control pain, inflammation, and aid healing. The ice wraps are joint specific and allow athletes to apply ice with compression to common and hard to reach areas including elbows, knees and shoulders.

“After working behind the scenes for years with the ATP, PROSERIES is excited about our new partnership agreement, and we look forward to supplying the men’s professional tennis tour for years to come,” said Dave Schroeder, Director of Operations, PROSERIES. “It is gratifying to know that our products are helping the world’s best athletes, like those on the ATP World Tour, to stay healthy and compete at their best.”
