NetworkNewsBreaks – VPR Brands LP (VPRB) Provides Update on Monetization, Enforcement of Electronic Cigarette Utility Patent
VPR Brands (OTCQB: VPRB), a market leader specializing in vaporizers and accessories for essential oils, cannabis concentrates and extracts (“CBD”), as well as electronic cigarettes containing nicotine, on Monday provided an update regarding the monetization and enforcement of its U.S. utility patent for electronic cigarettes. The company’s patented technology is one of the earliest filed electronic cigarette patents and includes two broad, independent claims encompassing products with an electric airflow sensor, including a sensor comprised of a diaphragm microphone. VPR Brands has begun identifying more than 50 infringing companies, based on sales volume, and has started notifying the companies of their infringement. Per the update, VPRB recently hired intellectual property (“IP”) law firm SRIPLAW to advise the company on monetization strategy and manage and execute the process. The company’s monetization strategy includes licensing and or manufacturing contracts with infringing brand owners. “Having personally been in the vape industry for the past 10 years and witnessing the evolution of e-Cig and vapor technology, it is befitting that our company owns this US utility patent for what has grown to be a multibillion-dollar market. The inner construction of an e-cigarette is quite simple and fairly standard and it is very obvious as to what our auto draw technology patent covers, and potential infringement is rather clear when you see it,” VPR Brands CEO Kevin Frija stated in the news release. “Our patent could be a huge windfall for the company either by enticing infringing companies to order product through VPR Brands or as an alternative pay royalty on infringing product. Infringement can be avoided by simply adding a button to the battery but there is a reason the preferred option by consumers and most manufactures to date to simulate real smoking is our buttonless auto draw technology which best mimics real smoking.”
