Trademark Class 28: Games and Sporting Goods

Trademark Class 28 Covers sporting goods and recreational items. It includes gymnastic and sporting articles, games, playthings, and decorations for Christmas trees. It gives protection to such light amusement and festivities products.
Registration under Class 28 gives fully exclusive rights for your brand in the sports and games industries. It protects your range of products, including gym equipment and toys as well as Christmas decorations from unauthorized use, ensuring your brand's distinctiveness in the home market and abroad.
Such protection is Class 28, and if any kind of business manufactures or distributes apparatus for sports, games, or festive decorations, then it needs such protection. Essentially, it helps a business avoid competitors who can enter the market into which the brand has already established presence, making this business a unique brand.
With each 10-year renewal, class 28 protects your brand safe and visible forever.
