By introducing new authentication measures, leading Swedish steel producer SSAB is increasing its efforts to combat counterfeits on the markets of South East Asia.
Under the 'Hardox(R) In My Body' trademark, licensed manufacturers using high strength steel from SSAB offer highly productive, durable and cost-efficient products. Only those who use state-of-the-art design, exceptional manufacturing qualities and use of genuine Hardox(R) wear plate are admitted to the program and may brand their products with the Hardox(R) In My Body sign.
Recognizing Authenticity
To help businesses and end-users better recognize the genuine Hardox(R) In My Body products, SSAB has updated their product signs with new authenticating measures. In addition to the identifiable logo, each sign comes with a unique QR code together with a sign ID and pin code.
Users can scan the QR code with any QR reader, which will open up a unique website link that requires the specific pin code. An immediate verification of the sign will be displayed, ensuring that users know exactly what they are working with. The sign ID can also be used to trace products and users can reach out to SSAB via email to start the process.
SSAB is continuously monitoring the market for counterfeit products. At the same time, it is giving end-users the tools to authenticate the equipment they are working with for a two-pronged enforcement approach. If users are concerned that they may have been misled into purchasing counterfeit products or wish to report any offenders, please contact SSAB immediately.
A Community Built for Success
Members of the Hardox(R) In My Body community stand to benefit in a variety of ways. Products are also guaranteed long-term cost efficiency, delivering productivity, durability, safety, and low operating costs. Furthermore, the weight-optimized design and use of Hardox(R) wear steel bring about increased load capacity for payloads, as well as incoming and outgoing fuel savings.
"Maintenance, downtime, and repair costs are kept to a minimum, and the long service life allows for work efficiency and a high resale value in the long run. For the mining, construction, quarrying, road building, recycling, demolition, or agriculture industries, these are innovations and improvements that can separate your business from the competition," said John Kuan, Country manager for South East Asia, SSAB
