Safestyle takes Safeglaze to court, claiming conspiracy,
malicious falsehood and more
22nd May 2018
Safestyle UK has issued an injunction and damages claim against newcomer Safeglaze UK including allegations of passing off, misuse of confidential information, unlawful means conspiracy and malicious falsehood, the company announced last night.
The claim, due to go before a court later this week, is made against NIAMAC Developments Ltd (trading as Safeglaze UK) and ‘a number of named individuals’. The company statement says: “the claim is made in the Business and Property Courts of England & Wales, on the Intellectual Property list.”
“The claim asks the Court to determine whether Safestyle is entitled to injunctive relief and damages from what the Group considers to be passing off, the misuse of confidential information, unlawful means conspiracy and malicious falsehood. Safestyle is also applying for urgent interim relief, pending the trial of this matter.”
The company continues: “Safestyle… has invested heavily in building its leading market position over many years. The Group welcomes healthy competition in the market, but is committed to protecting its brand, its reputation, and its staff.
“A further announcement will be made in due course.”
