PB as a Benelux trademark

PB is officially registered as a Benelux trademark.
We are the proprietors of the trademark PB, including the associated domains pb.nl and pb.be. With this registration, the name PB is legally protected within the Benelux, covering a broad spectrum of activities.

This protection closely aligns with what PB has been over the years — and continues to be: a fusion of creativity, entrepreneurship, culture, and digital innovation.

Registration within the Benelux

The PB brand is registered for the following classes:

Class 35 — Commerce, marketing, and organisation

This class encompasses everything related to business and commercial services, including:

  • advertising, marketing, and public relations
    management of commercial affairs and business administration
    (online) retail and wholesale services
    merchandising and sales promotion
    organisation of promotional activities, fairs, and events
    market research, data analysis, and statistics
    sponsorship acquisition and personnel management

All services can be offered both offline and electronically, including via the internet.

Class 41 — Education, culture, and media

Class 41 covers the creative and content domain of PB, such as:

  • education, training, coaching, and workshops
    cultural, musical, and educational activities
    production and presentation of radio, television, audio, and video programmes
    music production, film production, and studio work
    organising concerts, events, lectures, and conferences
    writing, publishing, and issuing texts and publications

Again, this applies both physically and digitally, including online platforms.

Class 43 — Hospitality and experience

This class focuses on hospitality and guest services, including:

  • restoration, catering, and hospitality services
    bars, clubs, cafés, and restaurants
    temporary rental of hospitality, party, and conference spaces
    information and advice regarding these services

Also applicable via online channels.

Why this is important

The Benelux registration of PB ensures clarity, protection, and continuity.
It provides us with the space to allow PB to exist in various forms — creatively, commercially, and culturally — without losing sight of the core.

PB is thus not just a name, but a solid foundation for everything we create, share, and develop.
