TBS

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “TBS” was registered on the Principal Register in 2005 for a narrow set of metal and bulk‑handling equipment, but it was cancelled in 2016 because the owner, SEMCAN INC., a Canadian corporation, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The cancelled goods include metal silos, valves, pipe couplings, conveyors, vacuum equipment, and related components, all used in bulk material handling. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same industrial equipment area, especially where metal or pneumatic handling devices are sold or used. This history does not give the owner control over every use of the letters “TBS” in unrelated fields. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 event appear in the supplied record. The last meaningful status event was the cancellation in March 2016. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is most pronounced in the bulk‑handling equipment market, while other industries may face a lower concern.
