GDFII/L&P (P.R. China) Will Defend Non-Infringement Position of Tate & Lyle Sucralose Patents

In response to the recent complaint by Tate & Lyle Sucralose, Inc. to the ITC of patent infringement, GDFII/L&P affirms that it will vigorously defend its non-infringement position.

Guangzhou, P.R. China (PRWEB) April 23, 2007 -- Tate & Lyle Sucralose, Inc. recently filed a complaint with the United States International Trade Commission (ITC) (DN-2540) to try to block the manufacture and distribution of sucralose by Guangdong Food Industry Institute and L&P Food Ingredient Co. Ltd. (GDFII/L&P).

Hellen Li, General Manager of L&P, commented that "Tate & Lyle's complaint to the United States International Trade Commission (ITC) is completely without merit and is an improper attempt to unfairly damage our business and reputation."

GDFII/L&P have always respected the international intellectual property rights of others and will continue to follow that philosophy in the future. We stand ready to try to resolve this matter amicably with Tate & Lyle, but if necessary, we will confidently and vigorously defend our position before the ITC.
