MELBOURNE, Australia, June 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SSAB has taken decisive action against two Indian companies selling counterfeit steel. The unauthorised products, labelled with the Hardox® trademark, exhibited severe quality issues, posing risks to buyers who believed they were purchasing genuine Hardox® wear plate. Following a recent investigation and lawsuit in India, two companies based in the Mumbai area admitted to trademark infringement and passing off, both serious violations of SSAB's intellectual property rights. The companies not only paid exemplary damages but also faced a permanent injunction in the lawsuit and were directed to cease all use of the infringing marks. Additionally, they issued unconditional public apologies to SSAB. Protecting customers from counterfeit products in Australia Only the Swedish steel manufacturer SSAB produces genuine Hardox® wear plate, and Hardox® wear plate is only available from SSAB and from SSAB-certified suppliers. Each month, SSAB successfully removes hundreds of website links, online marketplace advertisements and social media pages based in India and China, offering counterfeit products or falsely claiming to stock genuine Hardox® wear plate for export to Australia and other parts of the world, often at very low prices. Hardox® wear plate is a premium, high-quality product known for its exceptional hardness and toughness. Its guaranteed properties deliver outstanding performance, making it a market leader in wear resistance—and naturally, not a low-cost option. Therefore, a simple guiding principle is that if a deal seems too good to be true, it likely involves counterfeit steel. SSAB strongly encourages buyers to purchase Hardox® wear plate only from SSAB-certified suppliers. Where to buy genuine Hardox® wear plate and wear parts in Australia SSAB maintains its own sales network. To ensure product authenticity, Hardox® wear plate should only be purchased through SSAB's own local stocks in Australia, SSAB's mills and through our authorised Hardox® Wearparts Centers in the Pacific region. https://www.hardoxwearparts.com/find-center/ Reporting counterfeit steel At SSAB, we are committed to ensuring that customers receive only high-quality, genuine Hardox® wear plate they can trust. If you encounter branded steel that you suspect is not genuine Hardox® wear plate, we urge you to contact your local SSAB sales team immediately. The risks of buying from unauthorized sources Buying from unauthorised sources may result in: Operational setbacks – Counterfeit steel often has lower quality and therefore lower durability, leading to frequent repairs, replacements and increased maintenance costs. Health and safety risks – Inferior materials may compromise structural integrity, increasing the risk of failures and accidents. Legal repercussions – The use of counterfeit steel could lead to litigation, fines or other regulatory consequences. Environmental impact – Counterfeit production methods often neglect sustainability standards, leading to increased contamination and waste.

赫爾辛基 2025年6月23日 /美通社/ -- 今天在 2025 年 European Academy of Neurology (EAN) Congress 上發表的最新研究顯示,經常做惡夢會顯著加速生物老化,並使過早死亡的風險增加三倍以上。這項研究首次顯示,即使考慮到其他健康問題,惡夢本身也能獨立預測更快的生理老化和更早的死亡率。 本研究由英國癡呆症研究所 (UK Dementia Research Institute) 和倫敦帝國學院 (Imperial College London) 的 Abidemi Otaiku 博士領導,分析了六個長期人口群組中 2,429 名 8 至 10 歲兒童和 183,012 名 26 至 86 歲成人的資料。 成人的惡夢頻率是在研究開始時自我報告的,參與者的追蹤期長達 19 年。對於兒童而言,噩夢頻率是由其父母在研究開始時報告的。 結果顯示,與很少或從未做惡夢的人相比,每週做惡夢的成年人早逝(70 歲前)的機會高出三倍以上。惡夢較頻仍的兒童和成人,生物老化速度也相應較快,約佔死亡風險提高的 40%。 值得注意的是,研究發現每星期做惡夢,比其他已確立的風險因素如吸煙、肥胖、飲食不佳和體能活動少,更能預測過早死亡。 「我們睡著的大腦無法區分夢與現實,」Otaiku 博士解釋說:「這就是何解惡夢經常讓我們驚醒,大汗淋漓、喘不過氣、心跳加速,因為我們的戰鬥或逃跑反應被觸發。這種壓力反應,甚至比我們在醒時經歷的任何事情更激烈。」 他繼續說:「惡夢會導致皮質醇的長期升高,這是一種與細胞加速老化密切相關的壓力荷爾蒙。對於經常遇到惡夢的人而言,這種壓力累積可能會顯著影響老化過程。此外,惡夢會擾亂睡眠品質和持續時間,損害人體重要的隔夜細胞恢復和修復功能。慢性壓力和睡眠中斷的結合影響,可能會促進我們細胞和身體的加速老化。」 頻繁做惡夢與加速老化之間的關係在所有年齡層、性別、種族和心理健康狀態中都保持一致,表明惡夢具有普遍影響。與很少做惡夢或不做惡夢相比,即使每月都做惡夢也與老化速度加快和死亡率增加有關,減少全體人口做惡夢頻率的重要性不言而喻。
