Vahterus Successfully Protects Its Intellectual Property

Euro Heat doo, a Serbian manufacturer of heat exchangers, has been found liable for infringing Vahterus’ European Patent on flooded evaporators with internal droplet separator. The Unified Patent Court (UPC) in Denmark made the decision on 14 January 2025.

Based on this judgment, Euro Heat may no longer import, market or sell any of its patent-violating flooded evaporators with internal droplet separators in countries covered by the patent.

Furthermore, other parties such as distributors or customers importing, distributing or buying such products from Euro Heat would also be infringing the patent.

Vahterus is pleased with the judgment, since it represents a recognition of the hard work and investments it has put into developing innovative new products like Plate & Shell heat exchangers with integrated droplet separators.
