On our website, you can find useful information about other services which we offer, such as trademarks, patents, design rights and utility models.

Trademark
A trademark is a symbol which distinguishes the goods and services of a company from similar goods and services of other companies.

Patent
A patent gives protection for an invention. It is an exclusive right accorded by the state to an inventor to exploit the invention commercially.

Design right
A design right protects the outer appearance of a product. The object of protection is always a concrete article, or a part of it.

Utility model
A utility model is suitable for inventions which do not possess the inventive step which is required from a patentable invention, but which are still eligible for short-term protection through a utility model.
