PNC Financial Granted Trademark For “Green Branch”

by Trey Granger

Environmental Leader reports that PNC Financial has trademarked the term “green branch” with the U.S. Patent & Trademark office so that it can brand its branches as environmentally friendly.

PNC has 42 different buildings certified by the U.S. Green Building Council, 40 of which are bank branches. Other PNC green buildings include the PNC Firstside Center in downtown Pittsburgh and the J. Richard Carnall Center in Wilmington, Delaware.

For more information on green building, visit Earth 911’s Green Building news archive.
