CRS Wins a 4 Year Australian Federal Court Hearing Against Intermodal Solutions Group (ISG Pit to Ship) and Director.
Federal Court Judgement rules fully in favour of CRS claims in proceeding against Intermodal Solutions Group and Director.
Container Rotation Systems Pty Ltd (CRS) is the registered owner of Australian Trade Mark No 1309643 for the word “Rotainer” (Rotainer TM).
In June 2022 CRS commenced legal action in the Federal Court of Australia against Intermodal Solutions Group Pty Ltd (ISG) and its Managing Director (the Proceeding). In the Proceeding CRS claimed that certain uses and statements of ISG in relation to the word “rotainer” are unlawful and amounted to:
1. The infringement of CRS’s rights in relation to the Rotainer TM;
2. Misleading and Deceptive Conduct in breach of the Australian Consumer Law; and
3. Passing Off.
In the Proceeding ISG cross claimed that the Rotainer TM was not valid and should be revoked.
On 27 February 2026, the Federal Court (Justice Rofe) handed down its judgement in the Proceeding. In the judgement, made by Justice Rofe, the Federal Court has found all of CRS’s claims against ISG to be proven, and the Federal Court rejected ISG’s cross claim, finding that the Rotainer TM was and is properly and validly registered.
