Trademark Registration – Classification Guide Class 22 in Japan

We have decided to start selling “raw textile fibers”.
At first, we have prepared an impactful product name and logo in preparation for the raw textile fibers to be sold, and we want to register it as a trademark so that others will not copy our name and logo.
Then we need to remember to designate Class 22, which includes “raw textile fibers”!
Class 22 includes mainly canvas and other materials for sailmaking, rope products, stuffing materials, and unprocessed fibers for textiles. Let’s check it out.
Considering the future product development of “raw textile fibers”, it would be better to designate other goods in Class 22 as well.
If they are in the same class, the cost is the same, so I wonder if, for example, “threads and yarns” could also be designated in class 22…?

Class 22 is the class of canvas, ropes and unprocessed fibers for textiles, etc.

Class 22 includes mainly canvas and other materials for sail making, rope products, stuffing materials, and unprocessed fibers for textiles.

In addition to “raw textile fibers”, there are “chemical fibers for textile use”, “industrial packaging containers of textile”, “sawdust”, “hammocks”, “tents, not for camping”, “down [feathers]” and “ropes”, which may be easier to understand if you associate them with products familiar to us in our daily lives.
