The Higher Regional Court of Thuringia (OLG) has approved legality of the World pallet brand. The brand may remain in use for the production of reusable pallets in Euro-format without any restrictions. Thus, the OLG ruled off the legal dispute between the European Pallet Association EPAL and the Falkenhahn AG lasting for two years. With the verdict (ref. 2 U 279/09) of July, 21th, the action of EPAL was rejected pursuant to all trademark and competition law aspects . A revision was not approved.
