CHROMA QUARTZ BY PENTAL

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “CHROMA QUARTZ BY PENTAL” is dead, having been abandoned after a decision by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The owner listed is ARCHITECTURAL GRANITE & MARBLE, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The mark covered building materials, specifically quartz material used in countertops, bathroom vanities, bar tops, and tub surrounds, class 019. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same category of quartz‑based building materials, especially for countertops and related fixtures. This record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “chroma quartz” or “pental” in other contexts. The prosecution history shows no special examination sequence beyond the abandonment. The latest status event is the abandonment on April 26, 2012, and no further dates are supplied. No enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful risk of confusion in the quartz countertop market.
