As the name suggests, this type of patent protects the product
itself. This ensures that the patent holders enjoy a degree of monopoly in the
market for their goods.
This is considered as the better patent option as it is the
marketable product itself which is protects and thus, the threat from fakes and
rip-offs are greatly stemmed.
As the name indicates, this is given to protect the process that
is used to produce a certain product. This is considered to give a rather limited
protection as it does not
bar someone to make the same product using a
different process, thus the level of possible monopoly is very low.
