AFTON

What this record means

The record shows that the “AFTON” mark, owned by Foldcraft Co., a Minnesota corporation, was registered on the Principal Register for booth seating in International Class 020 but was cancelled on September 28 2012 because the registrant failed to file a required Section 8 declaration, so the mark is now dead. The goods listed—booth seating—are the only area where a similar name would raise a direct record‑based concern; the filing does not give Foldcraft control over the word “AFTON” in unrelated categories. The prosecution history notes the usual steps of filing, publication for opposition, registration, and then the Section 8 cancellation, but there is no Supplemental Register involvement. The latest meaningful event is the 2012 cancellation, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations, or court actions. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to use “AFTON” for any kind of seating product.
