Although seemingly functioned as a mark indicating the type of batik, that mark is different with a trademark, because it only shows that the product has been certified with certain quality. It cannot indicate the producer / manufacturer, or the SMEs who produce the batik products. In this respect, Batikmark is having similar characteristic with certification mark. Certification mark is given in accordance with the fulfillment of the required standards. Therefore, basically certification mark can be granted to anyone, any SMEs, and it is not limited only for members of certain group or association. As long as the SMEs fulfill the required standards, they can be granted for certification mark 30. The certification mark is granted by an authorized institution, independent from the SMEs / companies’ groups / associations. If the collective mark indicating from which community the SMEs are coming from, the certification mark indicates the quality of their products that they have been going through particular certification process 31.
