The individual, protected product design of Silikomart was copied 1:1, the overall impression of the original and the counterfeit is identical despite the difference in size. Silikomart uses high-quality, elastic and liquid raw silicone for all its products - certified as suitable for direct food contact. The counterfeit is made of firmer raw silicone and the mold is harder. The counterfeit is more expensive than the original.
