Why Should You Register?

In general, an industrial design protects any original design consisting of a unique shape, pattern or ornament, which is external in form and industrially applicable.

If the new designs can be visually seen to be unique in shape of external form, you will be eligible to register and protect your design under the Industrial Design Law. Sometimes, some can even be protected under copyright law too. Consult IP Lawyer for advice on which IP identity best suits your situation.

Industrial design registration will protect an appealing shape or pattern which will add significant commercial value to your product. This will result in an increase in the marketability of your new products. Therefore, it would be crucial that you prevent other people from copying and replicating it.

When an industrial design is registered and protected, it helps to ensure a fair return on investment to companies. An effective system of protection also benefits consumers and the public at large, by promoting fair competition in the market as well as honest trade practices.
