FORTITER AC FIRMITER
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “FORTITER AC FIRMITER” is no longer active; it was cancelled on August 3 2002 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The owner listed is R. TWINING AND COMPANY LIMITED, a corporation organized in the United Kingdom. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 030, covering liquid tea in flavoured and unflavoured form, iced tea, and tea concentrates. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the tea and beverage market, especially where the goods are sold in the same form and packaging. The cancellation does not mean the wording is free for all uses; it only removes the specific protection for those tea products. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 event appear in the supplied history. For anyone thinking of a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful risk in the tea and beverage space, but it does not preclude use in unrelated categories.
