Goods and services are both eligible for trademark registration. Goods and services are divided into 45 Trademark Classes during the trademark registration process.
Before filing an application, it is critical to determine the trademark class, as registering a trademark or name under a specific class only offers protection for that category. If a trademark is used for goods and services that fall into various classes, separate applications must be filed for each class in order to get trademark protection for the specific goods and services.
Trademark Class 4 covers industrial oils, greases, fuels, and illuminants, according to NICE classification. It also contains lubricants, dust-absorbing, wetting, and binding compounds, fuels (including motor spirit), and illuminants, as well as candles and wicks for lighting.
