Designs/Design Patents
The design of a product is one of the most important factors for its market success. The suitable protective right is the design registration: it protects the colouring and design of a product, and sometimes other sensory properties. The design registration grants the owner the temporary privilege to take the economic advantages resulting from the design - and a design registration can be maintained up to 25 years.
