Global steel pipe producer Interpipe has registered its trademark with Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Commerce and Industry.
This follows the trademark registration in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) last year, a move that will strengthen the company’s position in its fight against counterfeit steel pipes.
“The company has supplied more than 80,000 tons of pipe products to clients in Saudi Arabia over the last five years. However, we are increasingly facing competition from counterfeit products,” said Andrey Burtsev, commercial director for Middle East, Africa and Asia markets, Interpipe.
“The registration of the trademark is a measure to protect our clients from counterfeit products of inferior quality and reinforces the company’s commitment to delivering the highest quality certified steel,” said Burtsev.
With a mission to fight against fake steel across the Middle East market, Interpipe is an active member of Steel Alliance Against Counterfeiting.
It is a non-profit organization that now counts 18 reputable producers of steel pipes, flanges and fittings as members.
The alliance’s mission is to ensure quality and safety in the construction sector and its protection against trademark counterfeiting through close cooperation with governmental bodies, distributors and contractors around the Gulf.
