The company added that the US Patent and Trademark Office granted the patent to Extensis for its technology advancements in digital asset management.
Extensis currently owns several patents and has additional patent applications pending in the United States.
Earlier this year, the company was awarded a patent for identifying corrupt font files as part of a font management system.
Carlos Domingo, the chief executive officer of Celartem, said: "We developed the Express Palette by listening to our customers and supporting their desire for an asset management system to complement their existing workflow.
Through our customer research, we developed the Express Palette, eliminating the need for users to open yet another application in order to access vital files and images.
In short, it enables users to get the right file at the right time with very little effort." He continued: "We understand how vital it is for our customers to have transparent access to their files.
The Express Palette allows access to files stored anywhere on the network through seamless integration with the creative professional's workspace - whether that be Adobe's Creative Suite, QuarkXPress or other applications.
Portfolio is flexible enough to adapt to the working style of its users and not force them in to a rigid predefined workflow.".
