Online Brand Protection for Wine & Spirits
According to some estimates, nearly 1 in 4 bottles of alcohol consumed worldwide is counterfeit, resulting in billions of dollars of lost revenue. The problem is especially serious in countries or provinces where there are prohibition laws, giving rise to an underground alcohol market. Alcohol counterfeiting generally takes two forms: a method where used bottles are refilled and a more sophisticated method where entire bottles are manufactured from customized replica molds and then filled. Frequently, counterfeiters fill wine and spirits bottles with concoctions that contain chemicals like cleaning fluid, ethyl acetate and nail polish remover.
Apart from constituting trademark infringement, counterfeit alcohol sales pose obvious health risks and may even cause fatalities.
