Trademark Class 3 of Nice Classification - the complete guide

What is Trademark Class 3?

Trademark Class 3 covers cosmetics, cleaning products, and perfumery. This class is essential for businesses involved in manufacturing or distributing personal care and cleaning goods.

Examples include producers of skincare products, cleaning agents, and fragrances. Class 3 ensures proper trademark classification for beauty and hygiene products.

What are key features of Class 3?

Key features include products designed for personal care, beauty enhancement, and cleaning purposes.

Class 3 for trademarks: a brief description

Class 3 encompasses a variety of personal and household goods, including cosmetics, soaps, and perfumery. Businesses in this class cater to beauty, hygiene, and cleaning needs in consumer markets.

Products in this class are integral to personal care and household maintenance.

Practical examples of Class 3

Examples include manufacturers of shampoos, detergent brands, and companies producing luxury perfumes.

What Does Class 3 Include?

Class 3 primarily includes toiletries, cosmetics, cleaning preparations, and domestic and personal care and hygiene fragrancing products. Class 3 is rich in consumer products used for grooming, beauty, and maintenance.

Key Products in Class 3

This course covers sanitary preparations that come under the toiletries category, which are soaps, shampoos, shower gels, and other such hygiene products for cleansing and skincare. Tissue products treated with cosmetic lotions also come under this category since they offer skincare benefits through cosmetic formulations infused in them.

Class 3 also includes deodorants for application on human beings and animals to confer odor control and fresh condition. Room fragrancing preparations such as air fresheners and scented sprays belong to this class because they fragrance indoor environments with pleasant odors.

Alongside, this category includes maintenance and decorative products. Cosmetic nail adornment with the help of nail art stickers is included in Class 3. Polishing wax on shiny materials and sandpaper on smooth goods fall under Class 3 since they are being used in finishing and cleaning operations. With the inclusion of myriad cosmetics, toiletries, and cleaning products, Class 3 proves to be effective in grouping beauty, hygienic, and household maintenance products.

Trademark Class 3 does not include

While Class 3 practically comprises cosmetics, toiletries, and cleaning preparations, allied products are clearly not included and are classified under other classes of trademarks. These exclusions practically comprise raw materials used in the production of cosmetics, specialized cleaning materials, medicated personal care products, and cosmetic or cleaning tools.

For example, ingredients used to manufacture cosmetics such as vitamins, preservatives, and antioxidants are all Class 1 because they are chemical ingredients and not finished products. Similarly, degreasing preparations intended for use in industrial manufacturing and chemical chimney cleaners are Class 1 because they are chemical-based and not personal care.

Other Exclusions

Some beauty and hygiene goods are exempt under Class 3 if they contain a medicinal purpose. Non-human and non-animal application deodorants, such as industrial deodorants, come under Class 5. Likewise, medicated soap, shampoo, lotion, and dentifrice come under Class 5 as they contain therapeutic ingredients rather than being ordinary cosmetics or hygiene products.

Other exclusions are cosmetic application tools and cleaning equipment. Emery boards, emery files, sharpening stones, and grindstones, which are hand instruments, come under Class 8. Cosmetic and cleaning tools such as make-up brushes, cleaning cloths, pads, and rags come under Class 21, being application tools rather than cosmetic or cleaning materials. These exclusions give correct categorization for product classification and trademark registration.
