Otter continuously monitor the market to ensure that this IPR is respected and take action against manufacturers, importers, distributors and brands who are involved in infringement of Otter Group patents.
Recent activity includes the Easifix Legalization programme in which the Otter Group has been successfully working closely with all levels of the supply chain to ensure that appliances that incorporate the Easifix sealing system are licensed.
All products sold by Tarka Ltd. (including KetSol branded products), a subsidiary of Otter Controls Ltd., have protection under the Intellectual Property of the Group worldwide, and as such any queries on the Intellectual Property of the Group should be referred to the Head Office.
