How do I protect my intellectual property rights when selling health and beauty products in the UK?

Answer

For health and beauty products, branding and unique formulations are critical IP assets. Register trademarks for your brand, logo, product names, and distinctive packaging through the UK Intellectual Property Office (IPO). Patent any innovative product formulations or methods of manufacture by applying at the UK IPO. Ensure copyrights for marketing materials, packaging design, and product instructions by understanding your rights under UK copyright law. Use confidentiality agreements when discussing proprietary formulations with manufacturers. Monitor competitors for potential infringements, and be ready to enforce rights with the help of our specialized IP legal team.
