Registrar: V. Di Bucci,
makes the following
Order
1 By its action under Article 263 TFEU, the applicant, Puma SE, seeks annulment of the decision of the First Board of Appeal of the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) of 1 December 2023 (Case R 1400/2021-1) (‘the contested decision’).
Background to the dispute
2 On 12 December 2019, the intervener, Puma Srl, filed an application for registration of an EU trade mark with EUIPO for the following figurative sign:
3 The mark applied for designated, inter alia, following the restriction made in the course of proceedings before EUIPO, goods and services in Classes 17 and 42 of the Nice Agreement Concerning the International Classification of Goods and Services for the Purposes of the Registration of Marks of 15 June 1957, as revised and amended, and corresponding, for each of those classes, to the following description:
– Class 17: ‘Acoustic screens for insulation; bark coverings for sound insulation; soundproofing materials; quilted wadding articles for insulation; acoustic insulation articles and materials; insulation and barrier articles and materials; insulation sheets; all the aforesaid goods for construction of soundproofing booths provided in the business-to-business market’;
– Class 42: ‘Construction drafting; design and development of diagnostic apparatus; design of building interiors; consultation services relating to interior design; advisory services relating to the planning of premises’.
4 On 20 February 2020, the applicant filed a notice of opposition to registration of the mark applied for in respect of the goods and services referred to in paragraph 3 above.
5 The opposition was based, in particular, on the EU figurative mark reproduced below, registered on 30 June 2014 under No 12579728, in respect of the goods in Class 25 corresponding to the following description: ‘Apparel, footwear, headgear’, for which reputation is claimed:
6 The ground relied on in support of the opposition was that set out in Article 8(5) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2017 on the European Union trade mark (OJ 2017 L 154, p. 1).
7 On 30 June 2021, the Opposition Division partially rejected the opposition. In particular, it found that there was no link between the marks in relation to the goods and services referred to in paragraph 3 above.
8 On 11 August 2021, the applicant filed a notice of appeal with EUIPO against the decision of the Opposition Division in so far as it had rejected the opposition for the goods and services referred to in paragraph 3 above.
9 By the contested decision, the Board of Appeal upheld the decision of the Opposition Division and dismissed the applicant’s action. In essence, the Board of Appeal found that, in the light of the specific nature of the goods and services concerned, the significantly different market sectors in which they belong and also the different public to which those goods and services are addressed, no link could be established between the signs at issue, notwithstanding the strength of the earlier mark’s reputation and the similarity of the signs. The Board of Appeal also held that, even if consumers established a link between the signs, there was nothing to indicate that the mark applied for could take unfair advantage of the earlier mark’s reputation.
Forms of order sought
10 The applicant claims that the Court should:
– annul the contested decision;
– order EUIPO to pay the costs, including those incurred before the Board of Appeal.
11 EUIPO contends that the Court should:
– dismiss the action;
– order the applicant to pay the costs in the event of a hearing.
12 The intervener contends, in essence, that the Court should:
– dismiss the action;
– order the applicant to pay the costs.
Law
13 Under Article 126 of the Rules of Procedure of the General Court, where an action is manifestly lacking any foundation in law, the Court may, on a proposal from the Judge-Rapporteur, at any time decide to give a decision by reasoned order without taking further steps in the proceedings.
14 In the present case, the Court finds that it has been sufficiently informed by the documents in the file and decides, pursuant to that article, to give judgment without taking further steps in the proceedings.
15 In support of its action, the applicant relies on a single plea in law, alleging infringement of Article 8(5) of Regulation 2017/1001.
16 The applicant disputes, in essence, the findings of the Board of Appeal relating to the absence of any link between the marks at issue and to the lack of any injury to the distinctive character or the reputation of the earlier mark.
17 Under Article 8(5) of Regulation 2017/1001, upon opposition by the proprietor of a registered earlier trade mark within the meaning of paragraph 2, the trade mark applied for is not to be registered where it is identical with, or similar to, an earlier trade mark, irrespective of whether the goods or services for which it is applied are identical with, similar to or not similar to those for which the earlier trade mark is registered, where, in the case of an earlier EU trade mark, the trade mark has a reputation in the European Union or, in the case of an earlier national trade mark, the trade mark has a reputation in the Member State concerned, and where the use without due cause of the trade mark applied for would take unfair advantage of, or be detrimental to, the distinctive character or the repute of the earlier trade mark.
18 For an earlier trade mark to be afforded the broader protection under Article 8(5) of Regulation 2017/1001, a number of conditions must, therefore, be satisfied. First, the earlier trade mark which is claimed to have a reputation must be registered. Secondly, that mark and the mark applied for must be identical or similar. Thirdly, the earlier mark must have a reputation in the European Union, in the case of an earlier EU trade mark, or in the Member State concerned, in the case of an earlier national trade mark. Fourthly, the use without due cause of the mark applied for must lead to the risk that unfair advantage might be taken of the distinctive character or the repute of the earlier trade mark or that it might be detrimental to the distinctive character or the repute of the earlier trade mark. As those conditions are cumulative, failure to satisfy one of them is sufficient to render that provision inapplicable (see judgment of 31 May 2017, Alma-The Soul of Italian Wine v EUIPO – Miguel Torres (SOTTO IL SOLE ITALIANO SOTTO il SOLE), T‑637/15, EU:T:2017:371, paragraph 29 and the case-law cited).
19 As regards, specifically, the fourth of the conditions for the application of Article 8(5) of Regulation 2017/1001, that condition refers to three separate and alternative types of risk. The first type of risk referred to arises where the earlier mark is no longer capable of creating immediate association with the goods for which it is registered and used. That risk refers to the dilution of the earlier mark by the dispersion of its identity and its hold upon the public mind. The second type of risk occurs where the goods or services covered by the mark applied for may be perceived by the public in such a way that the earlier mark’s power of attraction is diminished. The third type of risk concerns the risk that the image of the mark with a reputation or the characteristics which it projects are transferred to the goods covered by the mark applied for, with the result that the marketing of those goods is made easier by that association with the earlier mark with a reputation. It should, however, be emphasised that in none of those cases is it necessary that there be a likelihood of confusion between the marks at issue; the relevant public only has to be able to establish a link between them without having to confuse them (see, to that effect, judgment of 22 March 2007, Sigla v OHIM – Elleni Holding (VIPS), T‑215/03, EU:T:2007:93, paragraphs 36 to 42 and the case-law cited).
The relevant public
20 First of all, in paragraphs 60 and 62 of the contested decision, the Board of Appeal held that the relevant public of the goods and services in respect of which the earlier mark had been sought consisted primarily, having regard to the nature of those goods and services, of professionals, businesses, institutions and industries involved in construction and acoustic engineering. In paragraph 63 of the contested decision, it stated that the level of attention of that public was higher than average.
21 Next, in paragraph 64 of the contested decision, the Board of Appeal held that the relevant public of the goods in respect of which the earlier mark was registered consisted, having regard to the nature of those goods, of the public at large which essentially comprises fashion enthusiasts and sports enthusiasts. In paragraph 65 of the contested decision, it stated that the level of attention of that public was average.
22 Lastly, in paragraph 88 of the contested decision, the Board of Appeal found that those publics overlapped in so far as professionals also form part of the general public.
23 Those findings of the Board of Appeal are not disputed by the applicant.
Reputation of the earlier trade mark
24 In paragraphs 72 and 73 of the contested decision, the Board of Appeal held, in essence, that, as a whole, the evidence submitted by the applicant proved, at the date of the application for registration of the mark applied for, that is 12 December 2019, that the earlier trade mark enjoys a very high degree of reputation for sports apparel, footwear and headgear throughout the European Union and, in particular, in Germany and Italy.
25 Those findings of the Board of Appeal are not disputed by the applicant.
The comparison of the signs at issue
26 In paragraphs 81 and 82 of the contested decision, the Board of Appeal found that there was a high degree of visual and phonetic similarity between the signs at issue, in the light of the coinciding verbal element ‘puma’, which was the only element of the earlier sign and the dominant element of the sign applied for, and that they were conceptually identical in so far as they both referred to an animal.
27 Those findings of the Board of Appeal are not disputed by the applicant.
Whether there is a link in the mind of the relevant public between the marks at issue
28 The applicant submits, in essence, that Regulation 2017/1001 and the case-law do not require, for marks enjoying a high degree of reputation, proof of the existence of a link in the mind of the relevant public between the marks at issue, for the purpose of applying Article 8(5) of Regulation 2017/1001. That mental link should be assumed, even where the goods and services referred to by the marks at issue are different and relate to radically different market sectors. Thus, the fact that the goods and the publics concerned are different and that no direct link may be established between them does not prevent the existence of an association between the marks at issue, since the earlier mark enjoys a very substantial reputation among the public.
29 EUIPO and the intervener dispute the applicant’s arguments.
30 As a preliminary point, it must be recalled that the existence of a link between the marks at issue must be assessed globally, taking into account all factors relevant to the circumstances of the case. Those factors include: the degree of similarity between the marks at issue, the nature of the goods or services for which the marks at issue were respectively registered, including the degree of closeness or dissimilarity between those goods or services, and the relevant section of the public, the strength of the earlier mark’s reputation, the degree of the earlier mark’s distinctive character, whether inherent or acquired through use and the existence of the likelihood of confusion on the part of the public (see order of 25 January 2024, Puma v EUIPO – Puma (puma soundproofing), T‑266/23, not published, EU:T:2024:38, paragraph 31 and the case-law cited).
31 In particular, although the existence of a similarity between the goods and services covered by the marks at issue does not constitute a condition for the application of the relative ground for refusal laid down in Article 8(5) of Regulation 2017/1001, the nature and the degree of closeness of the goods or services concerned constitute factors that are relevant in order to assess whether a link between those marks exists (see order of 25 January 2024, puma soundproofing, T‑266/23, not published, EU:T:2024:38, paragraph 32 and the case-law cited).
32 In essence, after finding in paragraphs 87 and 90 of the contested decision that the goods and services at issue were intended for fundamentally different publics and also concerned radically different market sectors, the Board of Appeal held, in paragraph 99 of the contested decision, that no link could be established between the marks at issue, notwithstanding their similarity and the strength of the earlier mark’s reputation. It stated in particular, in paragraph 97 of the contested decision, that the fact that the marks at issue were similar and that the earlier mark enjoyed a high degree of reputation did not suffice to establish the existence of a link. In that regard, it specifies, in paragraph 98 of the contested decision, that even the extremely high reputation of the earlier mark did not result in the absolute protection which could allow the right holder to oppose registration of a similar sign for all conceivable goods and services. The Board of Appeal made it clear that there must be a reason for which the consumers could establish a link between the marks at issue and that such a reason was absent in the present case, having regard to the entirely different market sectors.
33 Contrary to what the applicant submits, that finding of the Board of Appeal is free from error.
34 In the first place, it should be observed that the applicant’s line of argument is based on the erroneous premiss that Regulation 2017/1001 and the case-law do not require proof of the existence of a mental link for marks enjoying a very high degree of reputation. According to the applicant, that mental link should be assumed, even where the goods and services referred to by the marks at issue are different and relate to radically different market sectors.
35 In that regard, it was recalled in paragraph 30 above that the existence of a link between the marks at issue must be assessed globally, taking into account all factors relevant to the circumstances of the case, such as the degree of similarity between the marks at issue, the nature of the goods or services covered by the marks at issue, including the degree of closeness or dissimilarity between those goods or services, and the relevant section of the public, the strength of the earlier mark’s reputation, the degree of the earlier mark’s distinctive character, whether inherent or acquired through use, and the existence of a likelihood of confusion on the part of the public.
36 More specifically, it is apparent from the case-law that the fact that the earlier mark enjoys a high degree of reputation for certain specific categories of goods or services does not necessarily imply that there is a link between the marks at issue (see order of 25 January 2024, puma soundproofing, T‑266/23, not published, EU:T:2024:38, paragraph 37 and the case-law cited).
37 In the second place, it should be observed that, contrary to what the applicant submits, the lack of similarity between the goods and services covered by the marks at issue was not the ‘decisive’ criterion for the Board of Appeal’s finding. That contention of the applicant is based on a manifestly incorrect interpretation of the contested decision.
38 In the present case, as regards its analysis of the link between the marks at issue, first, the Board of Appeal noted, in paragraph 84 of the contested decision, that the existence of such a link had to be assessed taking into account all factors relevant to the circumstances of the case. Such a link must be assessed in the light of the relationship between the various factors which are relevant in each case.
39 Secondly, the Board of Appeal observed that the goods and services at issue were different. In that regard, it stated, in paragraph 87 of the contested decision, that, on the one hand, they were aimed at a specific public which was fundamentally different. In the same paragraph, the Board of Appeal stated, to that effect, that the relevant public for the goods and services for which the mark had been applied for was a professional public which requires an in-depth understanding of the technical specifications and regulatory standards for those materials and services, including design, construction, drafting, product design and development and other aspects contributing to the field of architectural acoustics and construction technology. However, the relevant public for the goods for which the earlier mark was registered was comprised of the public at large, including sports enthusiasts and fashion-conscious consumers. That public, which looks for apparel, footwear and accessories that align with the personal style and preferences of that public, was guided by the aesthetics and lifestyle rather than technical specifications. Furthermore, in paragraph 88 of the contested decision, the Board of Appeal recalled that, according to the case-law, while it could not be ruled out that, in certain circumstances, the target publics of the goods covered by the marks at issue may overlap and that a specialised public may be familiar with the earlier trade mark covering goods or services aimed at the general public, that cannot suffice to show that that specialised public will establish a link between the marks at issue.
40 On the other hand, they concern entirely different markets which lack commonalities and differ in purpose, nature, regulatory framework, manufacturer and production process, as well as target public. The Board of Appeal stated, inter alia, in paragraph 90 of the contested decision, that the goods and services at issue were distributed through industrial and business-to-business channels, while fashion goods reached consumers through physical stores and retail and e-commerce channels. The construction and acoustic engineering sectors follow distinct EU standards and regulations that prioritise soundproofing, fire resistance, sound absorption, safety compliance, and building codes for construction and acoustic insulation materials, aligning with the specialised knowledge and expertise required in those fields. In contrast, the fashion industry adheres to general product safety and consumer protection regulations without specific acoustic or insulation standards, underlining the divergence between the technical nature of the goods and services at issue and the stylistic focus of the fashion goods. Consequently, it was unlikely that the goods and services at issue could be related in the minds of the consumers.
41 Thirdly, the Board of Appeal held that, given the very different commercial context of the marks at issue, no cooperation seemed likely to take place between those marks. It stated, inter alia, in paragraph 95 of the contested decision, that it is not a common marketing practice to either expand a brand into an unrelated technical field or to use the trade mark on construction materials or in relation to construction and acoustic engineering. In addition, the Board of Appeal observed in the same paragraph that the applicant had not produced any evidence to demonstrate that there were such collaboration agreements with companies manufacturing specialised construction materials or soundproofing and insulation devices.
42 Fourthly, the Board of Appeal found, in paragraph 97 of the contested decision, that the fact that the signs at issue were similar and that the relevant public of the mark applied for was aware of the reputation of the earlier mark cannot automatically lead to the recognition of the existence of a link between the marks at issue. There had to be a reason for which consumers could link the marks, and such a reason was absent in the present case given the entirely different market sectors of the signs at issue.
43 Fifthly, the Board of Appeal found, in paragraph 99 of the contested decision, that the applicant had not demonstrated that the use of the mark applied for in the specific commercial context of the goods and services covered by that trade mark would bring the earlier trade mark to mind. In that regard, it stated that, according to the case-law, the standard of proof required for demonstrating that there is a link between the trade marks is in this case higher, since the earlier trade mark is composed not of a fanciful name, but of a common noun which primarily designates an animal.
44 Thus, it must be clearly stated that the Board of Appeal found that there was no link between the marks at issue, taking into account not only the dissimilarity between the goods and services at issue and the entirely different markets concerned, but also the lack of evidence adduced by the applicant in order to establish a link between the goods and services at issue, the relevant public at which the marks were aimed and the fact that no cooperation between the marks at issue seemed likely to take place.
45 In any event, the assessment of the existence of a link in the mind of the public, for the purposes of the application of Article 8(5) of Regulation 2017/1001, may take account, as is expressly stated in the case-law cited in paragraph 31 above, of the degree of closeness or dissimilarity of the goods or services covered by the marks at issue (see, to that effect, judgment of 7 December 2022, Puma v EUIPO – Vaillant (Puma), T‑623/21, not published, EU:T:2022:776, paragraph 77).
46 In the third place, contrary to what the applicant appears to believe, the fact that the marks at issue are similar to a high degree from visual and phonetic standpoints and identical from a conceptual standpoint, that the earlier mark enjoys a very high degree of reputation and that it has acquired through use a very high degree of distinctiveness is clearly not necessarily sufficient for a link between the marks to be found to exist. As recalled in paragraph 38 above, such a link must be assessed in the light of the relationship between the various factors which are relevant in each case.
47 In the present case, it is common ground that the goods and services at issue differ enormously and also relate to radically different market sectors. The Court notes, as observed by the Board of Appeal, that the market for the goods and services covered by the mark applied for, which concern the construction and acoustic engineering sectors, has nothing in common with the market for goods covered by the earlier mark, which is that of fashion and in particular of sports products. The goods and services covered by the mark applied for belong to a specific and limited market which is entirely different from that to which the goods covered by the earlier mark belong. They are mainly intended for professional use in the fields of construction and acoustic engineering, whereas the goods covered by the earlier mark for which reputation has been established are apparel, footwear and headgear that are intended for practising sports or are used as fashion accessories.
48 In addition, as the Board of Appeal correctly found in paragraphs 90 and 92 of the contested decision, the goods and services at issue are distributed through different distribution channels.
49 Similarly, as stated in paragraphs 20 and 21 above, the goods and services at issue target different publics, namely, first, a professional public in the construction and acoustic engineering fields as regards the mark applied for and, second, the general public as regards the earlier mark.
50 Furthermore, taking account of the specificity of the goods and services covered by the mark applied for and of the fact that the market concerned is radically different to that in respect of the goods covered by the earlier mark, the assumption of cooperation between those marks seems very unlikely, contrary to what the applicant submits. After all, it must be pointed out that the applicant did not submit any evidence showing that licence and cooperation agreements have been entered into. The applicant’s claims, whereby, first, cooperation between undertakings from completely different industries has been common practice for many years and, second, marks well known by the general public may give rise to any form of cooperation are general and made without taking account of the specificity of the market to which the goods and services covered by the mark applied for belong. They are purely hypothetical. Accordingly, they are not of such a kind as to diminish the fact that the goods and services at issue belong to entirely different business sectors.
51 It should also be observed that, on account of the enormous dissimilarity of the goods and services at issue and of the entirely different markets concerned, the fact that the relevant publics overlap to a certain extent, as stated in paragraph 22 above, does not affect the finding made by the Board of Appeal relating to the absence of any link between the marks at issue. It is apparent from the case-law that, even if the relevant section of the public as regards the goods or services for which the marks at issue are registered is the same or overlaps to some extent, those goods or services may be so dissimilar that the later mark is unlikely to bring the earlier mark to the mind of the relevant public (see, by analogy, judgment of 27 November 2008, Intel Corporation, C‑252/07, EU:C:2008:655, paragraph 49).
52 In the light of all the foregoing, it must be held that the Board of Appeal was clearly entitled to take the view that, in the particular circumstances of the present case, account being taken of both the specificity of the goods and services covered by the mark applied for and the sector to which they belonged, and the specificity of the public at which they were aimed, and notwithstanding the strength of the earlier mark’s reputation, its highly distinctive character and the substantial degree of similarity between the signs at issue, a link would not be made between the marks at issue.
The detriment to the distinctive character or the reputation of the earlier mark
53 The applicant submits, in essence, that, if, on account of the absence of any link between the respective goods and services, the proprietors of marks enjoying a very high degree of reputation were unable to object to applications for registration of similar marks, the value of their marks would be gradually eroded and those proprietors would be deprived of all control over a potential dilution of the capacity of their marks to identify the commercial origin of the goods or services concerned.
54 The intervener disputes the applicant’s arguments.
55 According to the case-law, Article 8(5) of Regulation 2017/1001 implies that the three types of injury referred to therein, should they occur, are the consequence of a certain degree of similarity between the earlier and the later marks, by virtue of which the relevant section of the public makes a connection between those marks, that is to say, establishes a link between them even though it does not confuse them (see judgment of 7 December 2022, Puma, T‑623/21, not published, EU:T:2022:776, paragraph 119 and the case-law cited).
56 The existence of such a link in the mind of the relevant public between the mark applied for and the earlier mark is therefore an implied essential precondition for the application of Article 8(5) of Regulation 2017/1001 (see judgment of 7 December 2022, Puma, T‑623/21, not published, EU:T:2022:776, paragraph 119 and the case-law cited).
57 In the present case, the Board of Appeal rightly held, in paragraph 99 of the contested decision, that there was no link in the mind of the relevant public between the marks at issue. In the absence of such a link, the use of the mark applied for, as is clear from the case-law cited, is not likely to take unfair advantage of, or be detrimental to, the distinctive character or the repute of the earlier mark.
58 As a consequence, the applicant’s submission that the use of the mark applied for would take unfair advantage of the distinctive character or the repute of the earlier trade mark or that it might be detrimental to the distinctive character or the repute of the earlier trade mark is manifestly not well founded.
59 Since one of the four cumulative conditions laid down in Article 8(5) of Regulation 2017/1001 in order for protection to be given to the earlier mark is not satisfied, it should clearly be concluded that the Board of Appeal rightly dismissed the applicant’s opposition, without it being necessary to rule on the admissibility of Annexes A 5 and A 6.
60 In the light of all of the foregoing, the action must be dismissed as manifestly lacking any foundation in law.
Costs
61 Under Article 134(1) of the Rules of Procedure, the unsuccessful party is to be ordered to pay the costs if they have been applied for in the successful party’s pleadings.
62 Since the applicant has been unsuccessful, it must be ordered to pay the costs incurred by the intervener, in accordance with the form of order sought by the intervener.
63 By contrast, since EUIPO has requested that the applicant be ordered to pay the costs only in the event that a hearing is convened, it should be held, in the absence of a hearing, that EUIPO is to bear its own costs.
On those grounds,
THE GENERAL COURT (Sixth Chamber)
hereby orders:
1. The action is dismissed.
2. Puma SE shall bear its own costs and pay those incurred by Puma Srl.
3. The European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) shall bear its own costs.
