What is a Trade-Mark?
A trade-mark can be, among other things, a word, logo, slogan or colour applied to an article. A trade-mark is used in association with goods or services to distinguish those goods or services from those originating from another source. A trade-mark is also sometimes referred to as a brand name.
Our Trade-Marks

These rules apply to the use of our trade-marks in advertisements, press releases, letters, memorandums, e-mails, trade show materials, marketing materials, articles, web pages and any other materials regardless of the form.
RulesAny reference to our products and services by their associated trade-marks MUST be truthful, fair and not misleading.
NEVER use our trade-marks to describe a product or service other than a product or service originating from us.
For example, the AEROCHAMBER* trade-mark and the AEROCHAMBER PLUS* trade-mark should only be used to describe our holding chambers. Use of our trade-marks to promote or otherwise describe a competitor’s products or services, is not authorized and constitutes trade-mark infringement.
NEVER use our trade-marks as a noun or verb.

Example: Please ship to us five AEROCHAMBER PLUS* Valved Holding Chambers (“VHCs”). The AEROCHAMBER PLUS* VHCs should be shipped by rail.
NEVER use our trade-marks in any manner that suggests they are your or another person’s trade-marks.
Do not combine or incorporate our trade-marks as part of any other trade-marks, trade names or company names.
Our trade-marks should ALWAYS be set apart from other text.
The first letter of our trade-marks must always be capitalized. The entire trade-mark should either be capitalized or bolded and/or italicized to set it apart from the surrounding text.

The appropriate trade-mark symbol ® or ™ or * should be inserted immediately at the end of our trade-mark.
If you intend to use any of our trade-marks on a website, you should use the * symbol with an attribution notice as set out in paragraph 8 below. The ® symbol should only be used if the trade-mark is registered in the jurisdiction where you intend to use the trade-mark.
Please consult with our Marketing Department at +1-519-455-7060, if you do not know which trade-mark symbol you should be using.
Trade-marks that incorporate a design must be reproduced in the same manner as depicted on our products and/or advertisements.

You should consult with our Marketing Department at +1-519-455-7060 for assistance with attribution notices. Attribution notices may vary depending on the jurisdiction where our trade-marks are being used.
We reserve the right to make changes to the above Rules from time to time and to impose additional rules/requirements by written agreement or otherwise.
