Federal Circuit Upholds PTAB Ruling in Tekni-Plex vs. Converter Manufacturing Patent Dispute



The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has decided against reviving claims related to a trio of food wrapping patents held by Converter Manufacturing LLC. This decision favors patent challenger Tekni-Plex Inc. in an ongoing legal dispute.

The ruling arose after the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) invalidated the contested patents, and Converter Manufacturing sought to overturn this decision. The Federal Circuit’s refusal to revive the claims effectively supports PTAB’s earlier determination.
