DAN-ELITE

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “DAN‑ELITE” is no longer active; it was cancelled under Section 8 because the owner, KAJ MOLLER NIELSEN, failed to file a declaration of continued use. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register on June 17, 1997, but the cancellation took effect on March 20, 2004. The goods covered were live horticultural plants and cuttings that had been screened for plant diseases, and the services were agricultural services for screening those plants. A similar name used in the same or closely related plant‑screening or horticultural services would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it only shows rights in those specific goods and services. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 cancellation appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the specific plant‑screening context remains a potential point of concern.
