The Complainant is a Swedish joint stock company founded in 1901 and one of the world’s leading producers of appliances and equipment for kitchen, cleaning products and floor care products. In 1910, initially Electrolux was incorporated as Elektromekaniska AB. In 1919, Elektromekaniska AB merged with Swedish AB Lux, and Aktiebolaget Electrolux (Complainant) was established.<\/p>\n
The Complainant led the development of the modern canister-type vacuum cleaner and the absorption refrigerator during the early part of the 20th century.<\/p>\n
Electrolux launched its first vacuum cleaner – Lux I in 1912. In the 1920s, the company added absorption refrigerators to its product line. Other appliances soon followed, including washing machines in 1951, dishwashers in 1959 and food service equipment in 1962.<\/p>\n
The Complainant’s well-known ELECTROLUX trademark is used today in connection with kitchen and cleaning appliances for both consumers and professional users. The company sells approximately 60 million household products in approximately 120 markets every year. In 2020, the Complainant had about 55,000 employees, and its sales amounted to USD 14.15 billion.<\/p>\n
The disputed domain name <electrolux-chile.com> was registered on 24 April 2025, and currently does not resolve, as its status in WHOIS is listed as “ServerHold”. However, apparently the disputed domain name previously had an active website, which, although not archived or saved, is evidenced by recent Google searches for the website <electrolux-chile.com>. Apparently until recently, it resolved to a website appearing to offer the Complainant's products and with an active shopping cart. <\/span><\/p>",
