Multisorb Technologies Inc. said it has won a patent infringement case against Sud-Chemie Inc., a company headquartered in Louisville, Ky. Sud-Chemie had alleged infringement of the U.S. Patent No. 5793942 by Multisorb's TranSorb sorbent packs. On Sept. 7, the U.S. District Court in the Western District of Kentucky ruled Sud-Chemie's patent invalid, and dismissed Sud-Chemie's patent infringement case against Multisorb. Multisorb will continue to sell Transorb sorbent packs, which are designed specifically for use within ocean cargo containers to protect products against moisture damage during international and domestic shipping. These sorbent packs absorb moisture that builds up in containers and condenses that can cause rusting, peeling of labels and wrinkled packaging.
