Class 17 covers unprocessed and semi-processed rubber, plastic, and other materials used in insulation, packing, and manufacturing. It includes plastic sheets, rods, sealing materials, non-metallic hoses, and flexible pipes. It is essential for businesses supplying industrial raw materials rather than finished consumer goods.
Companies involved in producing or selling insulating materials, rubber goods, plastic films (not for wrapping), and similar items should register under Class 17. This class is particularly important for manufacturers in the automotive, construction, electrical, and industrial supply sectors.
No, plastic packaging materials such as plastic bags or wraps used for packaging fall under Class 16. Class 17 only includes plastic products used in industrial manufacturing, such as extruded plastic sheets and films not meant for wrapping or transport.
Yes, flexible pipes, tubes, and hoses made from rubber or similar non-metallic materials are included under Class 17. However, rigid non-metallic pipes for building are classified under Class 19, and metal pipes are under Class 6.
Class 17 excludes materials classified by their specific function or use, such as erasers (Class 16), fire hoses (Class 9), and rubber patches for vehicle repairs (Class 12). It also excludes insulating glass for buildings (Class 19) and decorative items made from rubber or plastic.
