Orkla Care and Orkla Health successfully combat intellectual property infringements

Sorainen is advising Orkla Care and Orkla Health, among the biggest food supplement producers in the Nordic countries, on intellectual property matters.

Sorainen’s work with Orkla Health includes sending cease and desist letters regarding the trademarks CuraMed and HUSK plus drafting notification to the Consumer Rights Protection Authority related to illegal use of the Nutriless TM in the Amway Facebook account and elsewhere.

Sorainen also assisted Orkla Care in proceedings against VL SPORTAS, a food supplement marketer, which was marketing food supplements bearing the HUSK mark. With the help of the Sorainen team, the client managed to reach amicable settlement agreement terms which terminated the infringement and assured the client’s intellectual property rights. The settlement agreement was approved by the court.

The Sorainen team advising the clients includes partner Renata Beržanskienė and associate Ignas Motiejūnas.
