Schaeffler India, a leading motion technology company, has intensified its efforts to eliminate counterfeit products from the market, safeguarding customers and the industry from substandard and potentially harmful fake bearings and components. In collaboration with local authorities, Schaeffler Brand Protection team also conducted some hundred legal activities including several successful raids in Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata, resulting in the seizure of counterfeit products wrongly marked with the Schaeffler brands FAG, INA and LuK.
