From Ekowool:
Attention: Fake EKOWOOL Silica!
We reveal the facts of EKOWOOL silica forgeries at: http://www.alibaba.com/ and http://www.ebay.com/ from Chinese suppliers.
We wish to inform all that the company EKOWOOL produces silica exclusively in Russia and Poland and that there are no sellers, distributors or manufacturers in China.
China's silica is an imitation of the well-known and trademarked EKOWOOL. It is of very low quality and does not have the characteristics that correspond to the original in environmental nor temperature properties. It has a low content of the refractory component SiO2.
This cord has impurities of fusible Al2O3 and does not withstand the many cycles of heating and cooling. Counterfeit silica doesn't provide wicking of the e-liquid in the atomizer due to it’s glazing (or baking) at high temperatures. But the main problem is the impurity Al2O3 has a low melting point and is harmful because it collects in the lungs when inhaled. The difficulty of recognizing the authenticity of EKOWOOL from such counterfeit products is that they appear very much like the original in diameter and appearance.
Sergey Astapenko, President of the EKOWOOL, commented on the appearance of counterfeit products in the electronic cigarette market:
“It seems if you make something worthwhile, it will evoke admiration and the desire to copy the original. But not in this case! Counterfeit silica looks good, but the cord has some toxic and non-ecological components. That is very important because the product may produce smoke and toxic gases. This counterfeit cord under our brand may have the low price as well as the low quality. When you buy counterfeited EKOWOOL you not only get a negative impression about it’s low quality but the risks associated with negative effects on human health and others. We don’t use cheap raw materials to reduce prices for our products. EKOWOOL Quality - is absolutely our focus! Mission of our company is a New standard of ecological safety. As EKOWOOL we consider it to be our responsibility for the environment of the Earth, for the creation of ecologically clean macro- and micro-climate all over the world. Our goal is to introduce and promote EKOWOOL materials - an ecologically safe, healthy alternative to cancer-causing Asbestos, DANGERS IN INHALING FIBERGLASS and Basalt fiber".
The creators of EKOWOOL named it as the “material of the 21st century“. Indeed, this all-in-one ecologically friendly, heat-sound-electro-fire insulating material is perfect for even the most difficult conditions. It was originally created for the aerospace industry and today it finds more and more applications. Based entirely on non-crystalline silica fibers, EKOWOOL has excellent working characteristics, but unlike most of its competitors, it does not contain any adhesive additives. This is really important because in case of fire it does not produce smoke and toxic gases.
Of course, we inform all our customers about fake products, but to stop the spread of counterfeit cords will be a task for all of us.
Importantly, manufacturers of electronic cigarettes, who care about their reputation, have been informed about what's going on and where to buy the original product. We rely on the honesty of the producers of e-cigarettes in the case of counterfeit EKOWOOL and ask to bring it to the attention of other producers of electronic cigarettes in the detection of counterfeits and to point out the distinctive features of forgery.
EKOWOOL is a trademarked, protected numbered hologram, which collapses at the moment of copying. Cord EKOWOOL is produced from silica with a purity of SiO2 95-98% which includes only silica content. For example, silica cords filled with cotton or other materials are not products of the company EKOWOOL. Dimensions of the cords are as follows… hollow: diameters of 1, 2, 2.5, 3 and 4 mm; filled: diameters of 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 mm.
The only real quality guarantee is to purchase goods directly from EKOWOOL or from certified dealers and sellers.
