What this record means
The record shows that the mark “IMA” is live and registered on the Principal Register under serial 87597927, owned by IMA SCHELLING DEUTSCHLAND GMBH, a German limited liability company. The goods covered are extensive woodworking machines and related equipment (class 007), electronic control systems for such machines (class 009), and engineering and software services for woodworking machinery (class 042). A similar name used in any of these areas would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the mark control over every use of the word “IMA”; it applies only to the specific goods and services listed. The prosecution history shows a normal sequence of acceptance, publication, and registration with no Supplemental Register involvement. The latest maintenance event was the acceptance of a Section 8 and 15 declaration on September 23, 2025, and the next significant date is the status date of September 23, 2025. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name, the presence of this active registration in the same technical field suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.
