Some examples of trademarked colors include: UPS’s “Brown,” Home Depot’s “Orange,” Target’s “Red,” 3M’s “Canary Yellow,” Coca-Cola’s “Coke Red,” “Mattel’s “Barbie Pink,” and Tiffany’s “Blue.” The colors in these examples are given trademark protection because the companies and their associated products that use those specific colors have acquired a distinctiveness in the minds of consumers.
