  3. Anti-Counterfeiting Operations • Products bearing counterfeit UL Certification Marks were first found about a decade ago. UL immediately responded by developing a comprehensive Anti-Counterfeiting Program. • The primary mission of UL's anti-counterfeiting program is to protect the safety of consumers around the world from the hazards of products bearing counterfeit UL certification marks. • UL has a zero tolerance policy for counterfeit goods and does not consent to the import, export, or manipulation of seized merchandise carrying a counterfeit UL Mark. • UL takes all available legal remedies to prevent products bearing counterfeit UL Marks from entering the stream of commerce.
