Hesco is seeking orders from High Court for appropriate injunctions to restrain further infringing activity, an enquiry into damages or alternatively an account of Dirickx's profits as well as payment of its legal costs. A High Court trial in London is expected within 12-18 months.
Dino Koutrouki, CEO, said "Whilst Praesidiad as a business welcomes legitimate competition, it is not prepared to allow the actions of former employees, placed in a position of trust and duty of good faith, to unlawfully take advantage of the foundations of our business in order compete with us.
Hesco has a proud history as a leading innovator. For over 30 years customers have depended on us for original, high quality life safety products conceived, created and developed by us and tested independently to the highest standards. We have a duty to defend our innovation and our brand through this High Court action. Hesco intends to pursue its claims to the fullest degree, and we confidently expect the litigation process will reveal the full extent of wrongdoing of which the above is only a snapshot."
