In February 2006, Blendtec sued Vitamix Corporation for infringing its patents on Blendtec's "Wild Side" jar design, which Vitamix had allegedly copied as its own MP and XP containers. The court concluded Vitamix had infringed Blendtec's patents, and awarded Blendtec total damages of approximately $24 million, the largest patent-related penalty in the history of Utah. In July 2013, Blendtec won the 2013 Gold Innovation Award for innovations delivered by Blendtec's Signature Series and Stealth lines of blenders. In June 2017, the company was awarded the 2017 Kitchen Innovations Award for its Nitro Blending System. Blendtec is the parent company of the nutrition company Blendfresh, which was launched on July 14, 2014. In 2021, the Blendtec founding family sold majority share of the company to Wasatch Group.Products
