Licence Scheme
The Licence Scheme, established in Australia in 2001, is a trade mark licensing scheme that provides third party quality endorsement of licensees’ products under MERINOMARK™ specifications for fibre content and product performance.
Following licence establishment formalities, which include product testing, licence fee payment and execution of a licence agreement, licensees are entitled to apply MERINOMARK™ labelling to products which comply with MERINOMARK™ fibre content and product performance specifications.
Merinomark Pty Ltd is supported by sister company Graham Walters & Associates Pty Ltd ACN 096 141 561 (trading as Textile Quality Research and Trademark Management – TQRTM) in the quality control of MERINOMARK™ labelled products which are tested at the Geelong laboratories of TQRTM under its ISO 9001 certification as a “Quality Endorsed Company”. This certification is for the provision of a testing service and the operation of a trade mark licensing scheme.
Woolgrower groups and other interested parties not requiring direct use of the MERINOMARK™ trade marks (product labelling) are linked to the MERINOMARK™ Licence Scheme through the MERINOMARK™ Associate Membership Scheme.
