Challenge & solution

Securing and proving the anteriority of industrial designs

Challenge

The challenge for value-adding organizations

  • Manual, time-consuming process
  • Risk of physical loss or damage
  • Difficulty proving content integrity over time
  • Cost and delivery time

One of your colleagues recently shared his experience with us: during a dispute, the Soleau envelope that was supposed to prove the anteriority of a design turned out to be illegible due to poor conservation, thus compromising his client's rights.
