Of the three sectors studied, the cosmetics sector suffered the least from counterfeiting, with losses suffered by manufacturers of genuine cosmetics amounting to just under 5 % of total sales in the European Union. The French cosmetics industry, however, is the hardest hit in absolute terms, with annual sales losses of 800 million euros.<\/p><div class=\"indus-dans-articles indus-entity-placement\" style=\"text-align: center;display: flex;justify-content: center;\" id=\"indus-2559590361\"><div class=\"indus-adlabel\">Advertising<\/div><div id=\"indus-3563211130\"><a data-bid=\"1\" data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.industries-cosmetiques.fr\/en\/ad\/24742\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"notrack\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"site-industries-cosmetiques Two men speak during a Siemens videocast.

Other major countries experiencing job losses include Italy (24,000), Poland (18,000), Spain (15,000) and France (over 14,000).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to monetary losses and the impact on the job market, the report states that counterfeiting can present significant risks to consumer health and safety when it comes to toys and cosmetics. These potentially dangerous products account for 15 % of counterfeit items seized at the EU's external borders, according to an IP crime threat assessment carried out by Euipo in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>European consumers' awareness and perception of counterfeit products is a key factor. According to Euipo's Intellectual Property (IP) Perception Survey of June 2023, a third of Europeans believe it is acceptable to buy counterfeits if the price of the genuine product is too high. This proportion rises to half among young people. The study takes into account the proportion of people who admit to having bought counterfeit products, whether by mistake or intentionally, in each country. In addition, the study shows that IP-related crime has links with other serious forms of crime.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fond\u00e9e sur des donn\u00e9es de 2018 \u00e0 2021, une \u00e9tude de l\u2019Euipo (Office de l\u2019Union europ\u00e9enne pour la propri\u00e9t\u00e9 intellectuelle) indique que les ventes de produits cosm\u00e9tiques authentiques ont enregistr\u00e9 des pertes annuelles de 3 milliards d\u2019euros.
