What this record means
The record shows that the mark “APEIRON” is dead and was abandoned by Yaskawa America, Inc., a corporation organized in Illinois. The mark was filed on November 16, 2016, and the abandonment was finalized on July 2, 2018 because no Statement of Use or Extension Request was filed after the Notice of Allowance. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 009, covering variable frequency inverters, which are electrical and scientific apparatus. A similar name used for products or services in that same class would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “APEIRON.” No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the abandonment notice on July 2, 2018. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that the abandoned mark still shows a prior claim in the specific electrical apparatus area, so caution is advised when using the name for related goods.
