Why We Care

Why do we care about protecting our intellectual property? Because considerable time, effort, and creativity went into developing and bringing MagTrim's magnetic attachment technology to market.

As pioneers in the application of hanging crystal embellishments and ornaments to metal surfaces, we take unauthorized copying and imitation seriously. While attaching magnets to decorative objects may appear simple, the design, application, functionality, and commercial value of MagTrim technology are the result of years of product development and innovation.

Our goal has always been to make lighting, interior decorating, and event decorating easier, faster, and more enjoyable.

Licensing opportunities may be made available to qualified manufacturers on a case-by-case basis. For licensing inquiries, please contact MagTrim Magnetic Ornaments LLC.

Our Magnet Design

MagTrim Magnetic Ornaments LLC takes great pride in the design and manufacture of the magnetic components used in our ornaments and crystals.

Our beveled magnet design allows MagTrim embellishments to attach to compatible metal surfaces in a flush, concealed manner, minimizing the visibility of the magnet while providing a secure attachment.

MagTrim magnetic ornaments are designed with magnet sizes appropriate to the size and weight of the ornament or crystal. Larger ornaments weighing more than approximately 5 oz may be equipped with a 10 mm magnet to provide a secure attachment to compatible fixtures. Smaller designs, including mini crystals and ornaments, may use a smaller 6 mm magnet for a more discreet appearance.

These continuing innovations in MagTrim technology reflect our commitment to creating products that make lighting, interior decorating, and event decorating simpler, less time-consuming, and more fun.
