NOVAFLEX

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “NOVAFLEX” is no longer active; it was cancelled on November 1, 2003 because the registrant, Sheldahl, Inc., did not file a required declaration. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register in 1993 for class 009, covering multiple‑layer flexible circuit boards. A similar name used for products or services in that same category would raise the closest record‑based concern. The cancellation does not mean the wording is free for all uses; it only indicates that the specific registration has expired. The prosecution history shows the mark was initially allowed, then registered, and later cancelled under Section 8. No oppositions, extensions, or court actions appear in the supplied history, so there is no visible enforcement activity. For anyone considering a similar name, the cancelled status suggests a lower risk than an active registration, but the same goods or services could still trigger concern.
