Northern Region Cement Sues Safwa Over Patent Infringement
NORTHERN CEMENT 3004.SA | 0.00 |
On June 8, 2026, Northern Region Cement Co. announced the filing of a commercial lawsuit against Safwa Cement Company at the Commercial Court in Jeddah. The lawsuit alleges patent infringement related to Northern Region Cement's proprietary technology for converting ordinary black Portland cement production lines to white Portland cement using an innovative cooling zone process. Northern Region Cement seeks an injunction to halt the alleged infringement and claims that Safwa Cement unlawfully replicated essential patented elements without consent for commercial exploitation. The financial impact cannot be determined at this stage, but the company will seek compensation including profits derived from unauthorized white cement sales, with no anticipated legal risks to the plaintiff.
