Abstract

Article 1 of the BMW gives a definition of individual trade marks. The individual trade mark stands in contrast to the collective trade mark, which is dealt with later in the book. Suffice it to say that individual trade marks serve to distinguish the goods of one producer, while collective trade marks distinguish those of several enterprises, being goods having one or more common characteristics, for example the same quality which is guaranteed by the trade mark.
