Zilla is the sole source provider of NEX products

NEX® is a sole source product manufactured, sold, and distributed exclusively by Zilla Corporation (Zilla) in the form of steel tubing, signposts, mailbox posts, brackets, and accessories.

Additionally, Zilla owns trade dress marks and intellectual property for the shape of NEX posts. Like the iconic Coca-Cola glass bottle, NEX posts feature a unique tactile feel and visual aesthetic that distinguishes it from any other geometric shape in the world.

These marks give Zilla the exclusive right to manufacture, sell, and distribute NEX products — both for use in NEX Sign Post and NEX Mailbox Posts — precluding competition from producing or representing NEX products or likeness in any way.
