An industrial design is the visible appearance of an article or of a part thereof defined by the features of its shape, lines, pattern, ornaments, color combination or a combination of them.
A product is any article obtained by an industrial or artisan’s means, including parts intended for assembly into composite product, set or composition of articles, package, graphic symbols or printed fonts.
Registered industrial design provides legal protection to the visual features of the product, but not to the technical characteristics or indices thereof.
