Nordson Corporation (Nasdaq: NDSN) and KlesyMa GmbH of Magdeburg, Germany, (KlesyMa) have signed an agreement in which Nordson agrees not to sue KlesyMa for selling hot melt adhesive modules in violation of Nordson's European patent EP1568418.
Nordson's European patent EP1568418 relates to hot melt adhesive modules, manifolds, and/or applicators having a proprietary mounting interface.
The conclusion of this matter is part of the ongoing licensing program previously announced by Ulrich Bender, director packaging Europe, to offer a covenant not to sue/license to companies that have manufactured, marketed and/or sold modules, manifolds, and/or applicators in violation of Nordson's European patent EP1568418. While Nordson is willing to license various mounting interfaces covered by European patent EP1568418, Nordson will not be licensing the EasyOn™ or Bowtie® mounting interface, which can be found on a number of Nordson product lines, including the SolidBlue™ and MiniBlue® II applicators and modules.
The EP1568418 is in force in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.
