Sorbates Antitrust Litigation
(In re Sorbates Antitrust Litigation, MDL C98-4886 (N.D. Cal. 1997))

Ohio’s Attorney General brought an antitrust lawsuit against Daicel Chemical Industries, Ltd., Nippon Synthetic Chemical Industries, Co., Nutrinova Nutrition Specialties & Food Ingredients, GmbH, Celanese AG, CAN Holdings, Inc., Aventis A.G., Nutrinova, Inc., and Eastman Chemical Co. Purchasers of foodstuffs containing Sorbates from January 1, 1979 through July 1, 2003 were eligible to file settlement claims. Sorbates, which are non-toxic chemical preservatives, are used as mold inhibitors in high-moisture and high-sugar food and drink products. They are also used in household products, such as shampoo. We assisted potential claimants in filing for settlement.
