SUNCATCHER

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “SUNCATCHER” is live and registered on the Principal Register under serial 88956208, owned by Waters Industries, Inc., a corporation organized in Illinois. The registration covers phototherapeutic apparatus and light therapy devices for treating seasonal affective disorder, depression, mood disorders and circadian rhythm disorders, as well as ultraviolet lamps for medical applications (class 010), and ultraviolet ray lamps and sanitizing apparatus using ultraviolet light for non‑medical purposes (class 011). A similar name would raise the closest concern in these two classes, especially where the goods involve ultraviolet or light‑based therapeutic or sanitizing equipment. The record does not grant control over every use of the wording; it is limited to the goods listed. The prosecution history shows a smooth path to registration with no opposition or enforcement actions recorded. The most recent event is the registration on May 18 2021, and no further maintenance or renewal dates are supplied. For someone considering a similar name, the presence of a live, principal registration in these specific classes suggests a meaningful risk of conflict if the new use falls within or is closely related to these ultraviolet or light‑therapy products.
