DryLyte, S.L. has provisionally enforced the Munich District Court I decision’s against OTEC Präzisionsfinish GmbH

GPAINNOVA Group, through its subsidiary DryLyte, S.L., announces that it has enforced the judgment issued by the Munich District Court I (Landgericht München I) on September 26^th  2025, docket no. 21 O 11216/23. In this decision, the Munich District Court found infringement of the German utility model DE 20 2017 007 610.1 “Smoothing and polishing device” in favour of DryLyte, S.L.

GPAINNOVA has proceeded with making the required security deposit and provided evidence thereof to OTEC – as required under German law to enable the preliminary enforcement of the decision.

As a result of these steps, the first-instance judgment is effective, which will preliminarily confer binding effects on the decision.

In the decision, the Court ordered OTEC inter alia to refrain from manufacturing, offering, marketing, or using in Germany – or importing and possessing for such purposes – a system for smoothing and polishing metal parts by electroerosion wherein ion transport takes place through solid bodies. Furthermore, the Court also ordered OTEC to provide DryLyte, S.L. with information and accounting concerning the infringement.

This action ensures that said Court orders shall be obeyed by OTEC, even during the pending appeal, further bolstering DryLyte’s position in safeguarding its proprietary technology and intellectual property.

The provisional enforcement proceedings do not alter the fact that the decision is yet not final, as OTEC appealed the decision of the District Court. OTEC may seek legal remedies against provisional enforcement.

Pau Sarsanedas, CEO & President of GPAINNOVA stated: “GPAINNOVA is committed to protecting and enforcing its intellectual property rights. This action reflects our ongoing efforts to safeguard our innovative technology behind the active particle polishing system.”

GPAINNOVA remains open to collaborating with customers, partners and distributors who wish to work with DLyte technology under fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory conditions.
