Since 1894 UL’s mission has been the protection of human life and property from product risks and hazards. UL is an independent, not-for-profit product safety testing and certification organization. UL evaluates tens of thousands of products, components, materials, and systems for compliance to specific requirements, and enables manufacturers and the public to benefit from products that meet standardized safety requirements. In 2005, an estimated 20 billion products entering the global marketplace carried the UL Mark. The UL Mark is one of the most recognized, accepted and trusted safety certification marks in the world.

3 © 2006 Underwriters Laboratories – Proprietary & Confidential Anti-Counterfeiting Operations Products bearing counterfeit UL Certification Marks were first found about a decade ago. UL immediately responded by developing a comprehensive Anti-Counterfeiting Program. The primary mission of UL's anti-counterfeiting program is to protect the safety of consumers around the world from the hazards of products bearing counterfeit UL certification marks. UL has a zero tolerance policy for counterfeit goods and does not consent to the import, export, or manipulation of seized merchandise carrying a counterfeit UL Mark. UL takes all available legal remedies to prevent products bearing counterfeit UL Marks from entering the stream of commerce.
