A symbol used to distinguish a company's product from others is called a trade mark. A trade mark can be a symbol, word, phrase, or design that identifies and distinguishes the goods or services of one company from those of another. It can also help consumers to recognize and remember a particular brand or product. Once registered, a trade mark gives the owner exclusive rights to use the mark in relation to the goods or services for which it is registered and can prevent others from using a similar mark that could cause confusion among consumers.
