There is no ongoing or settled lawsuit against Ouragins, Inc., the medical scrubs company. However, there was a trademark dispute between Ouragins, Inc. and Oura Health, Inc., a Finnish company that produces a wearable ring for tracking health data.
In 2021, Oura Health filed a trademark opposition against Ouragins, Inc.’s application for a trademark for antimicrobial medical scrubs. Oura Health argued that the two companies’ trademarks were too similar and that consumers would be likely to be confused about the source of the two companies’ products.
In July 2023, the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB) ruled in favor of Ouragins, Inc. The TTAB found that the two companies’ trademarks were not likely to be confused by consumers and that Ouragins, Inc. had priority to the trademark.
Oura Health has appealed the TTAB’s decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The appeal is still ongoing.
Here are some of the key takeaways from the trademark dispute between Ouragins, Inc. and Oura Health, Inc.:
- The TTAB found that the two companies’ trademarks were not likely to be confused by consumers.
- Ouragins, Inc. has priority to the trademark.
