The state pays more and more attention to the protection of intellectual property rights, including trademarks, and penalties for similar infringement issues have become more and more severe. Recently, the Shanghai Bermet Company was fined by the court for infringing on other people's trademarks at will. The verdict was 5.61 million yuan in compensation. Let’s take a look at the Bajie Intellectual Property Trademark Transfer Network:

It is understood that the defendant Shanghai Bermad Company purchased products with the BERMAD trademark from normal sales channels at relatively low prices from 2014 to 2016. The red fire valve and blue pressure reducing valve were transformed into green CNC electro-hydraulic valves by painting and changing the color, and the gaskets in the products were taken out and replaced with self-purchased gaskets.

The parties sold 64 self-modified counterfeit green CNC electro-hydraulic valves, with sales of 1.464275 million yuan including tax. At the time of the incident, there were 17 unsold electro-hydraulic valves remaining in the warehouse, and the total illegal business volume was 1.870838 million yuan.

The number of cases involved in this case is not small. This case is a trademark violation case with the largest amount of fines investigated and punished by the Shanghai Industry and Commerce and Market Supervision Department in the field of intellectual property in recent years. The party involved in this case not only changed the color of the valve, but also replaced key components in the valve. This constitutes substantial modification and sale of the original product and should be considered a trademark infringement

Bajie Intellectual Property Trademark Transfer Network would like to say , Trademark infringers should not only see the profits brought by wantonly counterfeiting other people's trademarks. You must know that the "Trademark Law" has been included in the criminal law of the country. Infringers who challenge the bottom line of the law are bound to be punished by the law.
