Empowering Consumers to Avoid Counterfeits Manufacturers support efforts to educate and em- power consumers to avoid counterfeits, including leg- islative solutions to require platforms to notify online shoppers about real or potential risks from counter- feits. Consumers would also benefit from education campaigns on counterfeit products, especially those related to COVID-19.
Investing for the future
Before we opened our new Batavia, IL facility, the last new North American anilox manufacturing location opened in 2008. That location was Pamarco's La Palma, CA facility.
