NOVAFLEX

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “NOVAFLEX” is dead and was abandoned by Novembal USA Inc., a corporation organized in New Jersey. The mark was filed on April 14, 2021 under an intent‑to‑use basis and was published for opposition on March 29, 2022. It was granted a Notice of Allowance on May 24, 2022, but the applicant never filed a Statement of Use or an extension request in time, leading to abandonment on December 25, 2023. The goods listed are non‑metallic and non‑paper closures and caps for cartons, containers and bottles, so a similar name used for those products would raise the closest concern. The record does not give the mark control over all uses of the word “Novaflex.” No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history, so the supplied record shows no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the abandonment means the mark is not currently protected, but the specific goods listed still present a potential risk if the new use is in the same or a closely related field.
