PETALO

What this record means

The record shows that PETALO is an abandoned application, marked “dead” after the applicant failed to answer an Office action, with the abandonment dated May 7 1985; the owner listed is COMPANIA INDUSTRIAL DE SAN CRISTOBAL, S.A., a Mexican corporation that claimed use in commerce from July 29 1959 for paper and office supplies, specifically “paper of all kinds for hygiene and sanitary purposes” in International Class 016. Because the filing only covered paper goods, a similar name used for unrelated products such as clothing, food, or software would be farther from the scope shown here, while another paper‑related brand using PETALO could raise a closer, record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word. No supplemental register is involved, and the prosecution history simply notes a non‑final action and the eventual abandonment. The supplied history contains no indication of oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a paper‑goods brand with the same name.
