Apparel manufacturer Columbia Sportswear is suing a manufacturing partner that allegedly supplied faulty electrical components for the company's line of heated outerwear. Hong Kong-based Fibretronic Limited produced components that shorted out and melted fabric on the jacket, the lawsuit claims.
Columbia Sportswear paid approximately $950,000 to Fibretronic Limited for heating components, which were used in the cuffs of the company's Omni-Heat electrical jackets from May to September 2012. Seven styles of those jackets were later recalled in January 2013. Columbia Sportswear is seeking $9.4 million in damages from Fibretronic Limited.
