ESF is neutral. When ESF is aware of possible counterfeit products or fake certificates, ESF is investigating this issue by contacting with the possible suppliers in an informal way. If necessary further steps are taken, ESF works together with the relevant market surveillance authorities.
ESF effective members and their members have access to the reported cases.
