VISI-BLACK
Live · Registered LIVE/REGISTRATION/Issued and Active
What this record means
The record shows that VISI‑BLACK is a live Principal Register registration owned by Johnson & Johnson, a corporation organized in New Jersey, and it covers the single class 010 goods “surgical needles” with a first use date of April 12 1985. Because the registration is limited to surgical needles, the closest record‑based concern would arise if you were using a similar name for any medical device or instrument that falls within the same class, while uses in unrelated fields such as software or apparel would be farther from the scope shown. The record does not give Johnson & Johnson control over every possible use of the word “VISI‑BLACK.” The latest meaningful event is the notice of acceptance and renewal of Sections 8 and 9 on March 9 2026, confirming the registration’s continued active status. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions appear in the supplied history, so there is no visible enforcement signal. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if your product is a surgical needle or similar medical instrument.
