Designs

Your designs deserve the widest possible IP protection; we’re experts at providing this.

Whether your designs are related to packaging, products, spare parts, fashion, textiles or graphics, we can help you protect them.

With extensive experience in this area, we can advise on cost-effective filing strategies to achieve the most robust protection within and across different territories. We also ensure that design protection is complementary to your trade mark and patent portfolio.

Working closely with product development teams, R&D departments and designers - in fields as diverse as fashion and aerospace - we provide protection for innovative products and cutting-edge designs.

We can advise you on design protection strategy, obtaining and exploiting the requisite rights as well as protecting those rights both nationally and internationally.

Registration & prosecution

A registered design is a powerful tool which gives you an exclusive right to deal with a design. Registration deters third party use and builds a valuable IP portfolio for your business.

We work closely with your design teams to ensure your products have robust protection that we can monitor and renew throughout the right’s lifecycle.
