GOMACO Will Defend Ron Guntert’s Legal Threat Against the Company

Mar 9, 2020 - 5 years ago

On March 1, 2020, GOMACO was served papers for a lawsuit brought by Guntert & Zimmerman claiming patent infringement. GOMACO believes this claim is baseless, without merit, and will vigorously defend the suit and our reputation.

We appreciate our customer support and want them, as well as future customers, to understand that this suit in no way impacts our ability to sell, ship and/or service any of the thirty plus different machine models we manufacture.

GOMACO’s policy is to not comment publicly on a legal action. But with the timing of the lawsuit, being filed and served just days before CONEXPO 2020 in Las Vegas, we felt a statement was necessary.

GOMACO Corporation (www.gomaco.com) is the worldwide leader in concrete construction equipment with headquarters in Ida Grove, Iowa, USA. GOMACO equipment will slipform concrete streets and highways, airport runways, curb and gutter, sidewalks and recreational trails, safety barrier, bridge parapet, and irrigation canals.
