JAKARTA - Arc'teryx Equipment, a division of Amer Sports Canada Inc. (Arc'teryx) and a global design company specializing in high-quality clothing and equipment, expresses its appreciation for the decision granting the second cancellation lawsuit filed by Arc'teryx in the Commercial Court regarding the registration of the Arc'teryx Logo trademark in Indonesia on behalf of a Chinese company that did not receive approval from Arc'teryx.
In its decision, the panel of judges stated that the Arc'teryx brand was a well-known brand and the registration of the trademark in Indonesia in the name of the Chinese company was similar to the Arc'teryx brand, and also stated that the registration was done with bad faith.
The second cancellation lawsuit ruling issued at the end of February 2026 provided a more substantive assessment of the issues raised by Arc'teryx. This is different from the first trademark cancellation lawsuit ruling at the end of December 2025, which rejected the lawsuit from Arc'teryx against the Chinese company which is now in the process of cassation at the Supreme Court.
"We welcome this decision as a clear recognition of Arc'teryx's right as the original owner of the brand. The current result confirms the importance of protecting well-known brands from registration with bad faith by third parties, as well as reflecting a fair and thorough assessment by the court. We are committed to continuing to protect our intellectual property while supporting the creation of a positive business climate in Indonesia," said Cameron Clark, Vice President of Legal, Arc'teryx, Thursday, March 26.
Arc'teryx hopes that the current fair ruling can continue to be maintained in the ongoing legal process at the Commercial Court, including cassation at the Supreme Court and other registrations carried out without permission by any third party. This ruling also reflects Indonesia's recognition of the protection of famous brands and is expected to serve as a reference for similar cases.
