Kreussler’s SYSTEMK4 Receives U.S. Patent Approval

TAMPA, Fla. — The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has awarded patent number 8,801,807 to Kreussler GmbH for SYSTEMK4 after several years of hard work, the company reports.

The patent protects Kreussler as the only drycleaning chemical company that can provide SOLVONK4, its base component, for the cleaning of textiles, furs and leathers, Kreussler says. Further, it protects the entire suite of SYSTEMK4 drycleaning products, including SOLVONK4, CLIPK4, PRENETTK4 and VINOYK4.

SOLVONK4 is the only form of Dibutoxymethane that can be sold or marketed for textile cleaning, Kreussler reports.

The U.S. follows Australia and New Zealand in the awarding of patents for SYSTEMK4, which Kreussler describes as an “earth-friendly alternative to traditional drycleaning solvents.”

“This was a challenging ordeal but we’re pleased to receive patent approval,” says Kreussler Inc. Vice President Richard Fitzpatrick. “We have over 350 drycleaning companies in (the) U.S. who have invested in the system so we know it’s accepted in the marketplace. The patent validates our work and desire to be the best partner we can to our clients.”

Kreussler launched SYSTEMK4 in late 2010.
