A Belfast based company that has relationships with AC Milan, Manchester United, Manchester City, Bayern Munich, Brooklyn Nets, Toronto Blue Jays, and Wembley Stadium has looked local and signed up to a new partnership with the Stena Line Belfast Giants.

Founded in 2001, CET Ltd manufacture world-leading sports recovery and performance equipment, including CryoSpa Ice Baths and the revolutionary CoreTx GO palm cooling devices. It works with elite sports teams, health clubs, and sports therapy clinics around more than 40 countries.

“We’re always trying new, better ways of doing things – on and off the ice – looking for that extra 1%,” said Steve Thornton, group head of commercial and hockey at The Odyssey Trust.

“This partnership with CET Ltd has transformed the way that we train and provides an opportunity for us to implement market-leading technology into our game preparation. Without question, we are very excited and proud to be working alongside CET Ltd this season, and I look forward to developing this relationship in the future.”

“Having first met Steve Thornton at the Friendship Four tournament in November 2022, we loaned the Belfast Giants our CoreTx palm cooling device in early 2023 to assist with player recovery and rehab,” said Colin Edgar, director of CET Ltd.

“Over the last few months, it has been a real pleasure engaging with the Giants players and staff, and I have enjoyed the thrill of intense games as the team secured a historic treble.”

Having already installed one of CET Ltd’s state-of-the-art CryoSpa ice baths, the partnership will see the Giants introduce CoreTx palm cooling devices into their training and recovery.
