In a recent development, SoClean, a company producing cleaning products, is asserting that their products, designed to work with Koninklijke Philips NV’s breathing machines, were not the direct cause of the damages Philips endured during a product recall. Their statement comes as a response to the false-advertising claims that surfaced regarding the stated “compatibility” of SoClean’s products with Philips’ breathing machines.
This dispute has reached a critical junction at a Pennsylvania federal court. The false-advertising claims have been laid against SoClean as a result of the assertion that their products were compatible with Philips’ breathing machines. Philips alleges that these compatibility claims led to damages when their breathing machines had to be recalled.
SoClean, however, has firmly denied these allegations. The company argues that their cleaning products did not cause the damages that Philips incurred during the recall. As such, SoClean states that the false-advertising claims related to their declared compatibility with Philips’ products are baseless.
