Anti-Counterfeit Brand Assurance Efforts

The identification of counterfeit products is a crucial step to create awareness and avoid the purchase of non-genuine goods. Counterfeit compressor lubricants damage the entire value chain, and the costs of using counterfeit products can be very high. There are particular regions throughout the world where counterfeiting occurs more frequently. The Asia Pacific region – China for example – requires more robust anti-counterfeiting efforts because of the high rate of occurrences. Other regions, such as Latin America, have recently seen an increase in the number of attempted counterfeit product sales.

CPI has become aware of specific product labeling that has been identified as counterfeit. Do NOT purchase Emkarate® RL products that have any of counterfeit batch and/or lot numbers on the packaging:

F05/82724065 • N11/8276069 • M12/8276069 • 7253R
MR0348-4 8070-P • J12/8276069 • F07\00205 • MR0183-11

Consequences of using counterfeit lubricants bearing bad batch numbers:
• System Failure – reduction of compressor life and adverse reactions
• Poor oil return to the compressor
• Oil starvation of compressor – failure
• Reduced heat transfer – inefficiency
• High wear and friction

Emkarate® RL’s advanced design provides premier performance with:
• Superior wear protection for reliability
• Greater lubricity and improved energy efficiency
• Excellent operation in low-temperature applications

Only Buy Genuine Emkarate® RL

Counterfeit products cause confusion, damage brand reputation, create liability issues and result in lost revenue for manufacturers and distributors throughout the value chain. Industries in which compression applications require the use of genuine components, such as lubricants, suffer a multitude of negative effects at the hands of counterfeit products. Compressor damage (including total failure), lost productivity due to downtime, and wasted investment in bad products are all potential results of using non-genuine lubricants.
