 INVENTORS!
For over 60 years, Guardair Corporation has been an industry leader in developing and marketing new products for the Industrial MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) marketplace. Most of these new products were designed by our in-house engineering department…but some were conceived by end-users, tool developers, or inventors, who recognized a problem and then developed a unique product to solve the problem.
If you have a unique new product idea that others may need, Guardair Corporation is interested in evaluating your invention. Your invention may lead to a product that might be produced and sold by Guardair Corporation under an Award or Royalty Agreement which will bring you income for many years to come. With our extensive engineering, manufacturing, marketing, and sales expertise, Guardair Corporation is the ideal partner to bring your invention to market.

Q: What if my invention is not patented?
If your invention is not patented, or patent pending, do not contact Guardair with any information regarding your product. However, we encourage you to first begin the patent process on your own. This is for your protection as well as for Guardair. The US Government has an excellent website to help you through this process: www.uspto.gov
Q: Does Guardair have any suggestions for the Inventor?
Be careful with your invention. Check out the web as there is much information available to you at little or no cost. Be aware of potential scams and avoid them.
Research your field and be aware of other similar patents. Work with a reputable attorney to submit your patent application in a manner that maximizes the protection of your invention.
The more market information you can supply to Guardair along with your invention the better. Remember, not everyone is as familiar with your invention as you are so be sure to communicate how your product works along with the product costs and benefits.
Be persistent. Taking an invention to market is hard work. Good luck!
