Edgewell Personal Care Company issued the following statement in response to Procter & Gamble Company's lawsuit regarding Schick Hydro Connect 5:
"As a challenger company, we constantly strive to bring solutions, value and choice to consumers. We are offering refills which fit Gillette Fusio nhandles via schickhydro.com. These refills offer consumers a great shave and a great value. It isn't surprising that Gillette is doing whatever it can to try and stop us.
As innovators ourselves, we have numerous patents, and take intellectual property very seriously. However, P&G's allegations in this instance are meritless. P&G has a history of using litigation in the face of competition. We have a long track record of successfully defending our innovation against similar tactics. We will vigorously defend ourselves against these unfounded claims."
