OTTAWA, ONTARIO — Standard Innovation® announces that the European Patent Office has granted the company a patent covering the innovative We-Vibe® couples vibrator. European Patent EP 1 824 440 B1 extends intellectual property protection of the company’s couples products in the European marketplace.

“Bruce Murison invested years of this life to invent and bring to market the world’s first couples vibrator,” said Frank Ferrari, president of Standard Innovation. “Seeing our flagship patent granted in Europe, a key We-Vibe market, is further recognition of Bruce’s innovative achievement.”

Standard Innovation will continue to enforce its valuable intellectual property rights.
