High-end outdoor furniture producer Castelle has obtained a design patent for product features or processes used in the manufacturing of several of its 2017 collections.
The company said designs from the new Solaris, Roma and Vertice collections were among those receiving the latest patents – the 63rd patent the company has been awarded.
"With the over 60 patents, there is no question as to the priority our company places on originality of design," said Steve Lowsky, CEO of Castelle. "Through obtaining these, and all our patents, we are reinforcing our commitment to creating a genuine Castelle style and the ‘something different’ our customers look to us for.”
Over the company’s nearly 40 years in business, he said the protection of new designs annually has always been a priority.
“Whether the first or the sixty-third, the creativity in each design and the investment each represents are valued by everyone in our company," said Lowsky. " We feel a responsibility, as an industry leader and past recipient of multiple Design Excellence Awards, to represent the value of original designs by not only obtaining patents, but by defending them as well."
