PROFLUID, the French Pump, Compressor and Valve Association, the Federation of Mechanical Engineering Industry (FIM) and the French Union of Manufacturers (UNIFAB) warn you against the use of “pirate” parts in your installations.
The whole industry, as well as pump, compressor and valve manufacturers are very concerned by counterfeiting issues, which are currently hitting them head on. Actually, for these trades, this genuine plague results in a loss that is estimated at 10% of their turnover.
In view of the situation, in 2005 already PROFLUID launched a media campaign with the purpose of making executives, contractors and buyers aware of the risks involved in using counterfeit spare parts.
