The Fresh Wave sponsorship of the Chicago Blackhawks incorporates several elements that will enhance consumer engagement and elevate the brand's marketplace visibility.

"Hockey is one of the toughest sports, evidenced by the sweat players leave behind on the ice and in their gear," said Philip M. Coffey, President and Managing Director of OMI Industries.  "From kids hockey and up to the professional level, we know how difficult it is to remove these bad smells from hockey uniforms, locker rooms and equipment. Partnering with this championship team from our hometown offers us the opportunity to demonstrate to players of all ages and their families how effectively, efficiently and safely Fresh Wave products combat tough odors."
