Counterfeiting
Counterfeiting is the unauthorized reproduction of your product, document, negotiable instrument, or other item of value. It is the leading illegal way in which an organization’s financial well-being and its brand integrity is eroded.
In today’s global marketplace your brand can be attacked from almost any location on the planet. Current counterfeiting and piracy activities have a $900 billion impact on the global economy. That number is climbing and it directly impacts companies and individuals alike:
-
Companies are affected financially by the loss of sales for their legitimate product; the cost of warranty claims for counterfeit products purchased as legitimate; and damage to their brand and their integrity.
-
Worse yet, the general public is adversely affected by the loss of jobs, threats to the public health and safety, lost tax revenues, and the provision of funding for other illegal activities such as terrorism.
Stealth Mark® Security Products protect against counterfeiting by positive identification of the genuine article, thus exposing the fake.
