SANITEX

What this record means

The record shows that the application for the mark SANITEX was abandoned on June 23 2005 because the applicant did not respond to an Office action, so the mark is not live, registered, pending, or cancelled; it is simply dead, and the listed owner is SANITEX ‑ SANITÁRIOS TOGNI LTDA., a Brazilian corporation. The only goods covered are sanitary apparatus such as bidets, sinks, toilet bowls, toilet seats, toilet tanks, urinals and water closets, all in International Class 011, so a similar name used for plumbing fixtures or bathroom equipment would create the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word SANITEX in unrelated fields. The prosecution history shows a non‑final action mailed on November 16 2004 and an abandonment notice on June 23 2005, which is the latest meaningful status event; no further maintenance or renewal dates are provided. The supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so there are no visible enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to market bathroom fixtures under a similar name.
