A product's shape, color, pattern, and general appearance are all protected by design rights. Design protection is essential for brand identity and competitive positioning in industries where appearance affects purchasing decisions.
Design Rights: What Are They?
The decorative or aesthetically pleasing aspects of a product are legally protected by design rights. They safeguard the appearance rather than the function. Designs that are registered guarantee that they cannot be stolen, replicated, or copied without authorization.
Why Design Rights Are Important
-
Avoid imitation and copying
Design protection prevents rivals from copying the appearance of your product. Industries like clothing, furniture, consumer goods, technology, and packaging will particularly benefit from this. -
Make Your Brand Stronger
Customers frequently notice design first. Maintaining your distinctive appearance guarantees that your brand will always be identifiable. -
Boost Commercial Worth
Significant money can be made by licensing, franchising, or selling registered designs. -
Increase Market Share
You can confidently enter new markets knowing that your product's appearance is protected when you have design rights in place. -
Increase Customer Confidence
A product that has a well-known, distinctive design communicates authenticity and establishes credibility. When to Register a Design: Introducing a New Product
