What this record means
The record shows that “B&G SUSPENSION SYSTEMS” is a live, registered mark on the Principal Register owned by TECHNISCHE VERENFABRIEK DE MERWEDE BV, a limited liability company organized in the Netherlands. The mark protects automotive coilover suspension systems, including springs, shocks, sway bars, camber kits, bolts, bushings, nuts and sleaves, first used in commerce on September 30, 2005. A similar name used for those same or closely related suspension components would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give control over every use of the wording, only over the specified goods. The prosecution history shows a final refusal in May 2007, followed by an amendment and eventual registration in October 2007, indicating the mark was initially refused but later accepted. The latest status event is the renewal on February 21, 2017. No enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that using the same wording for comparable suspension products could lead to a conflict with this active registration.
