Trademark Registration – Classification Guide Class 6 in Japan How to chose goods/services 2022年5月16日 2024年3月25日 Amazing DX Support Team I’ve decided to start selling lightweight high-strength metal mountaineering equipment. First of all, I have prepared an impactful product name and logo for the new crampons and haken, and I would like to register it as a trademark to prevent others from copying it. Then you need to remember to designate Class 6, which contains ‘metal goods’!Class 6 contains a lot of metal-related goods! Let’s check it out. Considering the future product development of mountaineering equipment, I think it would be better to designate other products included in class 6.If they are in the same category, the cost is the same, but I wonder if it would be possible to designate mountaineering sticks in class 6…? Class 6 is a classification of metals (including ores) and certain metal goods, etc. Class 6 includes mainly raw and semi-processed metals and metal goods, including ores. It may be easier to understand if you associate it with the raw materials and processed products handled in metal processing. Goods included in Class 6 and NOT included in Class 6 List of main goods in Class 6 The following is a list of the main goods included in Class 6.You may file a Japanese trademark application designating these goods by Amazing DX. iron and steelnonferrous metals and their alloysores of metalmetal materials for building or constructionprefabricated building assembly kits of metalloading and unloading pallets of metal; turn-tables for load handling; traversers for load handlingartificial fish reefs of metalprefabricated sectional poultry houses of metalpaint spraying booths of metalmetal moulds for forming cement productspulleys of metal, not machine elementssprings of metal, not machine elementsvalves of metal, not machine elementsmetal junctions for pipes; metal flangesmachine keys; cotter pinsrailway pointsroad signs of metal [not luminous nor mechanical]beacons of metal, non-luminousliquid storage tanks or reservoirs of metal; industrial water storage tanks of metalinternal floating lids of aluminium for use with gas or liquefied gas storage tanks; liquefied gas storage tanks of metal; gas storage tanks of metalanchorscontainers of metal for transportanvils; swage blocksmetal hardware, not including "security locks, ring of metal for keys, keys of metal for locks and padlocks"security locks; rings of metal for keys; keys of metal for locks; padlockswire ropewire nets and gauzesindustrial packaging containers of metal, not including "metal stoppers, lids and caps"metal stoppers for industrial packaging containers; metal lids and caps for industrial packaging containersmetal nameplates and door nameplateshand-held flagpoles of metalstakes of metal for plants or treesmetal stepladders and laddersletter boxes of metalhat-hanging hooks of metalhand-held supermarket shopping baskets of metalwater tanks of metal for household purposestool boxes of metal, emptyboxes of metal for dispensing paper towels; towel dispensers of metalmetal joinery fittings; safesoutdoor blinds of metalupright signboards of metalman-made garden ponds of metal [structures]transportable greenhouses of metal for household usetrophies [prize cups] of common metal; commemorative shields of common metalmetal tombs and metal tomb plaquesshoe dowels of metal; shoe pegs of metal; hobnails of metalferrules of metal for canes and walking-sticksspurscrampons [climbing irons]; carabiners; rock pitonssculptures of metal The above list of main goods included in Class 6 is just an example.Let’s take a closer look at what other goods are included in Class 6 and what goods are not.
