Koziol is often a victim of plagiarism. Two products made the list for Plagiarius this year. For years, diverse plagiarisms of the Koziol bestseller “Kasimir” were being sold world-wide (Asia, Spain, Turkey). In this case, the tag including the image and the rubber affixing was copied as well. The Spanish distributor has removed the plagiarisms from stores and the internet and has signed a cease- and desist letter.
