PROTECT YOUR DESIGN
Capitalize on your design as a core business asset
Protection for how a product looks
Design rights protect the visual appearance of a product, including its shape, lines, contours, patterns, and surface decoration — for example the design of a pair of sneakers, a lamp, or a pair of headphones.
Exclusive rights through registration
By registering a design, you obtain exclusive rights to the appearance of your product and can prevent others from making, selling, or importing products with the same or a similar look.
A fast and cost-effective IP right
Design rights can be registered quickly and at relatively low cost, making them one of the most efficient forms of intellectual property protection.
