the trademarks.
Class 17 includes unprocessed and semi-processed rubber, gutta-
percha, gum, asbestos, mica and substitutes for all these
materials; plastics and resins in extruded form for use in
manufacture; packing, stopping and insulating materials;
flexible pipes, tubes, and hoses, not of metal.
It also includes electrical, thermal and acoustic insulating
materials and plastics for use in manufacture in the form of
sheets, blocks, and rods.

Choose Class 17 when registering for any of these types of

goods:
