Well it is complicated but Dicon (HH Brown of Berkshire Hathaway) first developed the sponges and then in 2001 Dicon and Michael Sorrentino (of RSI which is now Spongetech) co-invented the current sponge that is used by spongetech. At the time RSI gave the patent rights to Dicon but signed exclusive rights to the sponges.
DICON is the owner of substantial technology, issued and pending U.S. and Foreign Patents, technological know-how and proprietary information all relating to said hydrophilic foam materials and their applications.
