Imitations are a risk to a company‘s image and to its profit

Intellectual property theft is a threat to us all, and the problem is growing.With established links to organized crime a industry has now become a global epidemic.

The worldwide damage from illegal imitation of brand names amounts to over 250 billion US-dollars per year (5-7% of world trade).

BRAND PROTECTION

© KURZ 2005 2929© KURZ, 2007



Nowadays hardly any product is safe from imitation.

Internationally famous trademark, luxury fashion garments, watches, perfumes and upscale consumer goods are suffering from fakes and imitations.

Illegal imitation affects sales, jobs and the manufactures reputation.

The existence of substandard, forged products can quite simply destroy the image and the standing of the authorized manufacturer, and his all important reputation .
