Federal Court of Australia decides EIS GMBH’s patent is not valid or infringed by LELO Products

Today (September 22) the editorial office of EAN received a press release from LELO. Below is the original text:

In a significant legal victory, the Federal Court of Australia decided that EIS’s Australian Standard Patent No. 2018200317 is invalid and is to be revoked. Further, the court decided that EIS did not establish that the LELO Products infringed the Patent, even if it was valid.

This decision confirms what LELO believed all along: its innovative designs and technologies are distinct and original, upholding the brand’s reputation for pioneering excellence in the intimate wellness industry.

LELO regards the judgment as a confirmation that Australian retailers, distributors, and partners can comfortably sell LELO suction product lines of SONA, SILA and ENIGMA throughout the Australian territory. While EIS may appeal this decision, it will rest on EIS to show the court erred in coming to the conclusion that the patent is invalid and infringed.

This decision serves to uphold LELO brand’s reputation for pioneering excellence in the intimate wellness industry. LELO remains dedicated to its mission of delivering high-quality, innovative products to its customers.

A response from the opposing side is not yet available.
