Patent-Ready by Design

Our innovation and mechanical expertise refine our client’s concept into patent ready designs. Technical drawings and utility descriptions eliminate the ability for market competition, allowing time to develop brand market share.

One Mechanism, Endless Looks

With the brand momentum, DesignBranch extended the line to include multiple looks. All the appearances used the same mechanism tooling, minimizing the cost while expanding the line.
