PETERBOROUGH, N.H. – SoClean has filed an amended complaint in its lawsuit against Philips that takes into account a new inspection report from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The company highlighted the following points in the amended complaint:
- “Philips has known for years that the company’s products created a serious risk of harm to consumers.”
- “The FDA report also confirmed that Philips had been receiving customer complaints about its foam long before SoClean machines were even on the market and with respect to ventilator devices for which SoClean is not compatible.”
- “The FDA report did not contain a single reference to ozone.”
SoClean filed its original complaint on Oct. 12, alleging Philips has sought to blame it for problems related to a recall of certain respiratory devices.
SoClean seeks damages from Philips in excess of $200 million.
