Industrial Design
Industrial design registration has acquired much greater significance in Malaysia in recent times, reflecting a growing recognition among businesses and consumers alike of the pivotal role design plays in product differentiation and consumer choice. As consumers increasingly take the technical function of goods for granted, design often becomes the decisive factor in a purchase.
Our designs practice dates from the coming into force of Malaysia’s independent designs law in 1999. As such, our approach is shaped from years of experience and the perspective of developments in law and practice that we have been exposed to in our daily operations.
We routinely assist clients in securing industrial design registrations both at home and abroad. Our team regularly handles the prosecution of industrial design cases filed in the Southeast Asian region amongst others. This enables us to seamlessly navigate complex cases.
It is common for business owners to not be able to quantify the benefits of design registration initially and many might be frustrated by the costs. Further, the industrial design law and registration process may vary in different countries which can be perplexing for business owners who are just beginning to dip their toes in intellectual property protection.
Our legal, technical and business experience coupled with in-depth knowledge of relevant local, regional and international laws governing industrial design practice provide us with a unique platform for advising clients from the inception stage through to the commercialization stage of their product.
Where appropriate, we will also advise our clients on overlapping and complementary forms of protection such as copyright and trademark.
Our team is also able to assist design owners with the appropriate due diligence as well as industrial design litigation support and other advisory services.
