Why does UL invest in anti-counterfeiting?
Because consumers, retailers, regulators, manufacturers and distributors rely on the UL Mark of safety, we’ve invested in building a dedicated team of professionals whose sole responsibility is to oversee the protection of UL’s intellectual property. Since 1995, this team has worked with law enforcement and educated customs officials around the world about how to recognize legitimately labeled UL products as well as implementing anti-counterfeiting measures that are integrated as part of UL’s labeling format. If consumers suspect a product may have a counterfeit UL Mark, they can contact UL by e-mailing anticounterfeiting@us.ul.com.
