Blackstone Files Lawsuit Against Ooni Alleging Patent Infringement

Blackstone’s parent company, North Atlantic Imports, filed a patent infringement complaint with the Texas Western District Court against pizza oven maker Ooni. They allege that the Koda 16, Koda 12, Karu 16, Karu 12, and Karu 12G all infringe on their patent.

The patent key to the allegations is U.S. Patent No. 11,684,212, entitled System, Device, and Method for Baking a Food Product. It covers the technology behind Blackstone’s popular pizza oven.
