What This Means for You
The registration formally establishes "ReoGrid" as UNVELL's product brand. For our customers, this brings several benefits:
- Brand trust — With ReoGrid protected as a registered trademark, the origin of the product is clearer, so you can adopt and use it with confidence.
- Protection against confusion — We can properly protect the brand against confusingly similar names used by third parties.
- Long-term brand continuity — Formally establishing the brand lets us grow the product family under a consistent name going forward.
Importantly, this trademark registration does not change your license terms or how you use the product. You can continue to use ReoGrid exactly as before.
