Industrial Design Services
Protecting the design that sets you apart.
Industrial Design registration protects the aesthetic aspect of your product. It can either be 3D features (e.g. the shape or surface) or 2D features (e.g. patterns or lines). By registering your design, you regain control over your design to stop others from using it, selling or licensing it to others, or using it in your products.
An appealing product design is difficult to create. It requires creative minds and numerous prototypes. It is an arduous process to craft a unique design that speaks to your customers. With advances in 3D-printing technology and low-cost manufacturing, it has become increasingly easy to imitate even the most ingenious of designs.
Thus, it is imperative that you safeguard the uniqueness of your design, especially since your design is one of the key factors that influences buying decisions. Don’t let others imitate your design, apply for an Industrial Design registration.
