NEW YORK—3M Co won an injunction from a federal judge against a New Jersey company it accused of illegally using its trademarks to sell 3M-branded N95 respirator masks at inflated prices to exploit the coronavirus pandemic.
U.S. District Judge Loretta Preska in Manhattan on May 4 blocked Performance Supply LLC of Englishtown, New Jersey from using 3M’s name and logo, or posing as an authorized 3M distributor, to help sell masks.
