The parties settled for an undisclosed amount and the ongoing litigation has been ended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>i4F\u2019s active enforcement program is designed to ensure all i4F technologies, including<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3L Triplelock\u00ae and Click4U\u00ae, as well as those it represents on behalf of its partners, are not infringed upon, or used without the appropriate license agreement. This also ensures that i4F licensees remain first in line with accessibility to the most advanced industry innovations and do not suffer unfair competition from unlicensed product. As part of this, labeling compliance is also scrutinized during the sweeps to ensure every box of products incorporating an i4F locking is properly labeled using a L2C holographic label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>i4F continues to do everything in its power to safeguard its licensees, patents and technologies around the world by implementing a patent strategy providing licensees with a strong and broad scope of patent protection as well as vigorous enforcement.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"block file-list\">\n<\/div>\n\n\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n\n\n\n        <section class=\"block news feed latest\" id=\"block_636b60d965082\">\n          <div class=\"container\">\n            <h6 class=\"title text-center\">\u6700\u65b0\u52a8\u6001<\/h6>\n            <div class=\"row pb-5\">\n              <div class=\"col-md-4\">\n                <p class=\"date\">2026\u5e74 6\u6708 4\u65e5<\/p>\n                <p>i4F returns as Diamond Sponsor at the 2026 Global DIY-Summit<\/p>\n                <p><a href=\"https:\/\/i4f.com\/zh-hans\/article\/i4f-returns-as-diamond-sponsor-at-the-2026-global-diy-summit\/\" class=\"more\">\u9605\u8bfb\u6587\u7ae0<\/a><\/p>\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"col-md-4\">\n                <p class=\"date\">2026\u5e74 5\u6708 26\u65e5<\/p>\n                <p>i4F extends partnership with CFL to deliver global benchmark for premium enhanced bevel technology and new m-SPC material category<\/p>\n                <p><a href=\"https:\/\/i4f.com\/zh-hans\/article\/i4f-extends-partnership-with-cfl-to-deliver-global-benchmark-for-premium-enhanced-bevel-technology-and-new-m-spc-material-category\/\" class=\"more\">\u9605\u8bfb\u6587\u7ae0<\/a><\/p>\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"col-md-4\">\n                <p class=\"date\">2026\u5e74 5\u6708 13\u65e5<\/p>\n                <p>i4F brings AI-powered booth to 2026 edition of DOMOTEX asia\/CHINAFLOOR<\/p>\n                <p><a href=\"https:\/\/i4f.com\/zh-hans\/article\/i4f-brings-ai-powered-booth-to-2026-edition-of-domotex-asia-chinafloor\/\" class=\"more\">\u9605\u8bfb\u6587\u7ae0<\/a><\/p>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":6,"template":"","categories":[],"class_list":["post-6649","article","type-article","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.8.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>i4F and Eksa Tile &amp;
