Banana Products LLC Achieves Trade Dress Protection for the Banana Cone®

Banana Products LLC is excited to announce that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has officially approved the trade dress application for our flagship product, the Banana Cone®. This monumental achievement underscores the uniqueness and market significance of our product, ensuring its protection and exclusivity in the marketplace indefinitely.

Unlike design patents, which provide protection for 15 years, trade dress protection lasts as long as the product remains on the market. This means that no other company can legally replicate the Banana Cone®, securing our position as the sole provider of this iconic and highly effective safety solution.

“The approval of our trade dress application serves as a powerful shield around our distinctive design and brand,” said Patrick Brogan, Sales Director of Banana Products LLC. “This protection is a testament to the innovation and impact of the Banana Cone® and reinforces the trust we’ve cultivated with our customers.”

Trade dress protection is a significant achievement, typically reserved for products that are integral to their brand identity. It safeguards against imitations that could confuse consumers, much like the iconic shapes of products such as the Goldfish crackers or McDonald’s Golden Arches. The recognition of the Banana Cone® under this elite category highlights its role as a symbol of creativity, safety, and reliability in the marketplace.

“We’re proud that the Banana Cone® has earned this distinction, and we look forward to many more years of success, growth, and making workplaces safer—one banana at a time,” added Brogan.
