Belgian appellate court dismisses Sarine’s patent claims and recognizes OGI’s precedence in innovation

On May 30, 2023, a two-decade affair came to a just conclusion when the Brussels court gave its verdict dismissing Sarine baseless infringement claim against OGI

The court confirmed OGI's claims, rejected Sarine's claims and unequivocally stated that OGI's first-of-its-kind three-dimensional rough diamond marking system, developed and sold as early as 1999, does not infringe on Sarine patent. On the contrary - the court determined, among other proofs, that the said patent of Sarine lacks innovation due to the precedence of OGI's system!

33 years after OGI redefined diamond processing technology, it has once again been established that OGI has always been - and still is - a world-leading pioneer in the diamond industry and synonymous with innovation, originality and advanced technology.
