A trademark is an intellectual property regarding design, sign, logo, or expression that signifies the service or product of a particular source and distinguishes them from others. Trademark registration is about registering specific goods and services classified into 45 classes of Trademarks.
Before applying for registration of a trademark or a name under a class, identifying the particular class of trademark is necessary to ensure the benefit of maximum protection. If a trademark for goods and services identifies with different classes, you need to make separate applications to get the protection of the trademark for the respective services and goods. This article focuses on the class 17 trademark, which deals with rubber, asbestos, and mica.
Did you know? Trademark registrations help applicants to safeguard the logo. It also helps to avoid duplication of trademarks.
The Trademark Class 17
Trademark class 17 includes semi-processed and unprocessed rubber, gum, gutta-percha, asbestos, mica, and necessary substitutes for these materials; resins and plastics in extruded form for manufacturing usage; stopping, packing, and insulating materials; flexible and non-metal tubes, pipes, and hoses.
