What is SKF doing to combat counterfeiting?
• SKF actively assists local law enforcement authorities in taking action against this illegal activity. Successful raids and closed businesses do great harm to the counterfeit trade. • SKF is working closely with the American Bearing Manufacturers Association (ABMA) and the World Bearing Association (WBA) to raise awareness about the many negative impacts of counterfeit products. • SKF is providing regular updates to its Authorized Distributor network about events involving counterfeit SKF products. • SKF products are equipped with a special anti-counterfeit marking. Trained SKF personnel can recognize if a product is genuine SKF or not. • SKF is taking an active role in legally stopping counterfeit activities. Several favorable resolutions have supported SKFs endeavor, and more are anticipated. SKF is filing civil suits against companies selling counterfeit SKF products and SKF will prosecute offenders to the highest extent of the law. Image courtesy of SKF SKF is involved with the U
