What this record means
The record shows that NOVACTIVE, owned by Novembal USA Inc., was registered on the Principal Register on September 15 2015 but was cancelled on March 27 2026 because the owner failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, so the mark is now dead. The registration covered only class 020 goods described as “non‑metal, non‑paper, closing, capping, sealing and plugging parts for bottles and packages for foodstuffs and beverages,” so a similar name used for those types of packaging components would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “NOVACTIVE” in other industries or product categories. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation notice on March 27 2026; no further dates are listed. The prosecution history shows routine post‑registration maintenance reminders but no oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 issue, or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a name for similar packaging parts, but the risk is far lower for unrelated goods or services.
