If you would like to use the OS Brand on these type of products, you should make an application to the OS Trade Mark Licensing Programme following the procedure below.
If your application is successful you will need to enter into a Trade Mark Licence which sets out the terms and conditions (and royalties) which apply to your use of the OS Brand. We will only offer agreements for products that meet our strategic and commercial requirements and there is proven mutual benefit.
