Help with Inventions

We are experts in helping inventors bring their idea to life, supporting you from patenting an idea to marketing the finished product.  We understand how difficult the process can be, so we can be with you every step of the way, from patenting and prototyping your idea, to sending it out to market.

Prototype your idea

Before applying for a patent, it’s so important that you develop your idea to a working prototype level, which is a core stage of any project. This not only saves you time, but money too, by looking into the materials, methods of manufacturing, functionality and aesthetic. This is where we can truly inject some life into your idea, and refine the minor details.

Different types of prototyping

At TRIG, we know how important speed to market is for all inventors, which is why we’ve invested in the latest technologies and expert hands to provide you with a rapid prototyping service. We offer three different types of prototyping to suit your product requirements:

  • Visual Prototype
    This style of prototyping pulls together photo-realistic designs, which are an ideal marketing tool and can speed up the end process of establishing the finalised product in the market.
  • Proof of Concept Prototype
    This type of prototyping showcases the functionality of the product. It’s not intended to be a visual representative of the final product, but gives you an insight into how it comes together from a technical perspective, built out of off-the-shelf components.
  • Presentation Prototype
    This prototype style combines the functionality of the product, with the desired appearance to create a prototype that is a close as possible to the final product. It will mainly be made up of bespoke components, utilising the materials close to the production grade where possible.

Mass produce your product

Not only do TRIG support you with patenting an idea and prototyping the product, but can continue partner with you from project to production, as having your product produced on a mass scale can be overwhelming. We already know your product inside and out, so by becoming your dedicated project manager, we can pass on relevant information between you and the partner manufacturer.

The importance of production management:

  • Improves efficacy
  • Minimises production risks
  • Ensures the product design isn’t compromised
  • Prevents miscommunication between you and the manufacturer

Launching your product to the market

When you have your product ready to go live it is now time to launch it into the marketplace. Requiring a key combination of marketing strategy, business planning, pricing and salesmanship this can be one of the most challenging elements of the NPD process. Find out how to manage it like a pro in our guide to how to bring a product to market.
