What this record means
The record shows that the mark “POSY‑A” is no longer active; it was cancelled on November 18 1997 because the owner, JAGENBERG AG, a corporation organized in Germany, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register on May 14 1991 for a very specific machine part: a guide that attaches to processing machines to adjust the size of products cut from rolls of paper, cardboard, aluminum, and similar materials. Because the goods are highly technical and narrow, a similar name would raise the closest concern only if it were used for comparable machine parts or related equipment. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, and no enforcement actions or oppositions appear in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the cancellation in 1997. For anyone thinking of a similar name, the risk is limited to that specific class of machine parts, but the mark’s cancellation means the owner’s claim is no longer enforceable.
