CROSSFLOW

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “CROSSFLOW” is dead and was abandoned by Air Liquide America Corporation, a Delaware corporation, after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on May 22, 1997 on the Principal Register under an intent‑to‑use basis for the specific goods of freezing and/or cooling apparatus employing liquid and/or gas refrigerant materials. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not grant control over the word in any other context. The closest area of concern would be any use that involves similar cooling or refrigeration equipment, as that is the only goods category listed. The prosecution history shows a non‑final action mailed in February 1998, an assignment to an examiner in January 1998, and abandonment in September 1998, with no later maintenance or enforcement events recorded. Since the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations, or court actions, there is no visible enforcement signal. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a limited concern only in the specific cooling apparatus field, but it does not preclude use in unrelated areas.
