#đź’ˇ Practical Tips for Trademark Applicants
Always specify your product type: “lighting apparatus,” “sanitary installations,” or “air-conditioning units.”
If you produce both domestic and industrial appliances, include both for wider protection.
Mention “apparatus and installations for lighting, heating, cooling, cooking, drying, ventilation, and water supply” for broader coverage.
Renewable energy devices (like solar lights and heaters) also fall under this class.
If you manufacture smart appliances, also consider Class 09 for the software or control systems.
