Court Pauses Claim against Customer

Oude Meer, October 20, 2025, Gavita International confirms that the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio has ordered a pause on the proceedings involving one of our customers, following a claim initiated by ams OSRAM. The court has further determined that Gavita International as manufacturer of our Agrolux WEGA portfolio, will take the position directly in front of the customer in any ongoing or future proceedings related to this matter.

This decision, now part of the public record, reinforces what we have always stood for: end users should not be held accountable for disputes between manufacturers over intellectual property. That’s plain common sense. Our company has stepped forward to lead the case and actively defend our position, ensuring that our customers — the growers — can focus on what they do best: growing

We remain fully committed to transparency, partnership, and business continuity. The court has clarified the field — and now, we’re on the pitch, ready to play. Gavita International will continue to act with integrity, bringing balance and common sense back to our industry.
