On July 30, 2025, the Foshan Intermediate People's Court issued a first-instance judgment (Case No.: (2025) Yue 06 Min Chu 27) in the case of trademark infringement and unfair competition filed by our clients, New Pearl Group Co., Ltd. and New Pearl(Guangdong) New Material Co., Ltd., against Yichang XX Ceramics Co., Ltd., Foshan XX Ceramics Co., Ltd., and Mr. Feng XX. The court fully supported our clients' claim for damages.

The court determined that our clients' registered trademark, through long-term promotion and use, has gained high nationwide recognition and qualifies as a well-known trademark. The defendants' use of the "萨某特" mark and related identifiers was found to be similar to our clients' trademark, constituting both trademark infringement and unfair competition.

In reaching its decision, the court considered the promotional materials from the defendants' Douyin account and their daily shipment volume submitted by our team, calculating the scale of profits derived from the infringement. The court concluded that the infringement was willful and conducted on a substantial scale. Based on these factors, the court fully supported our claim for damages in the amount of 3.1 million RMB.
