Can I Trademark a Product?
Although you cannot trademark the product itself, you can trademark the name, logo, and slogan that you use to brand the product.
Trademarks do not cover a physical object; they cover the way an object or service is branded. If you wish to protect a specific product, look to patent it. Another option would be to create a specific slogan or unique product name and apply a trademark to that.
