Patent law - protect your invention

Patents give you the right to stop others from copying your invention and contesting your market share. Patentable in Germany is everything that is commercially applicable and new, and is based on an inventive step. Through patents you can, for example, protect devices, arrangements, production equipment, individual parts of larger production facilities, household products, medical devices, electrical circuits, substances and processes, in particular manufacturing processes and new uses of known objects and substances for a certain purpose.
