Industrial Designs

Protect the appearance of your products

An industrial design protects the ornamental appearance that gives a product its distinctive look. We register both industrial drawings (two-dimensional patterns) and industrial models (three-dimensional forms) before IMPI.

When to file

It is essential to file before any public disclosure. Novelty is a substantive requirement for protection. We advise on optimal timing and the most suitable strategy for protecting your product's appearance.
