Summary

Oxigen Environmental Unlimited Company has taken Kollect on Demand Ltd to the High Court over a dispute concerning the collection of waste bins in Waterford City. Oxigen alleges that in 2016 it discovered that Kollect was collecting some of its bins and that, after Oxigen complained, Kollect gave written undertakings not to use Oxigen's bins or waste receptacles. Oxigen further claims that Kollect has been placing stickers bearing its own logo on bins that Oxigen says are its property. Oxigen seeks several injunctions: to prevent Kollect from using its bins or waste receptacles, from placing its stickers on Oxigen‑branded bins, and from asserting any entitlement to use Oxigen bins for waste collection. The judge granted Oxigen permission to serve short notice on Kollect and set a return date in July. Oxigen says the dispute threatens its business and that it has not received a response from Kollect to its cease‑and‑desist request.
