The manufacturing and trafficking of counterfeit products is a serious problem for the supplier industry, including remanufacturers.  A wide range of products are being counterfeited, including many safety-related parts, such as brakes and brake pads, brake fluid, tires, structural parts and automotive lighting.

The MEMA Brand Protection Committee works to support policies to protect intellectual property and curb counterfeiting.  Members of AASA, HDMA, MERA and OESA are welcome to join.  Visit www.mema.org/brandprotection for more information.
