44With regard to the relevant criterion or criteria to apply for the purposes of identifying a coherent subcategory of goods or services capable of being viewed independently, the Court has held, in essence, that the criterion of the purpose and intended use of the goods or services at issue is an essential criterion for defining an independent subcategory of goods (see, to that effect, judgment of 11 December 2014, OHIM v Kessel medintim, C‑31/14 P, not published, EU:C:2014:2436, paragraph 39).
