Quality you can trust – confirmed with a scan

Our oils accompany you in everyday life, in the workshop and on the race track. To ensure that you can rely on their quality at all times, we are implementing a new digital testing procedure: The QR code with a green frame. A short scan is all it takes – and you know that you are using a genuine LIQUI MOLY oil. You will also receive helpful information about its application and the product itself. For more security, transparency and trust.

Quality deserves protection

Our products stand worldwide for the highest quality, reliability and safety – whether in motorsport, in the workshop or in everyday life. They are developed, tested and produced to the highest standards. But it is precisely this quality that makes it a target for counterfeits. Such products often look deceptively similar to the original, but can have serious consequences: They jeopardize function, damage vehicles and machines – and, in the worst case, human health.

Counterfeits cause billions of dollars of damage each year, undermine trust in brands and weaken entire industries. That’s why we rely on a modern, digital counterfeit protection system that gives you as a customer the opportunity to check the authenticity of our products yourself – simply, quickly and securely.

Why this matters

  • Safety comes first: Counterfeit oils can be dangerous – for people, machines and the environment.

  • Trust is key: Only those who can be sure of using an original product can rely on its performance.

The advantages at a glance:

  • Immediate authentication via smartphone
  • Protection against product piracy and security risks
  • Transparency and trust in the supply chain
  • Additional information about the product and its application  

How does it work?

Each oil is marked with an individual security code. The QR code on the lid is the security verification. Scanning it with a smartphone gives you direct feedback on authenticity – simple, fast and secure.

Guaranteed quality assurance through scanning

Our oils are of high quality. With our QR code, we guarantee that they are genuine. If you still have doubts about the authenticity of an oil, you can follow the steps below.

Note: Currently, products with our new QR code with a green frame as well as products with an existing QR code without a frame are in circulation. 

Both are valid and fully usable. Only the new QR code already supports direct digital authentication. You can have products with the previous QR code verified using our contact form – quickly and easily.

1. Visual anomalies

Sometimes abnormalities can also be detected without a scan. For example, if the packaging or label is unusual. Missing or damaged safety features are also possible. 

In such cases, our advice is: trust your impression. If something is wrong, let us know. Use our registration form and fill it out. This can be found further down the page. We will then review the case. 

2. Scan the QR code

Good to know: Not every scan gives a clear result immediately. Are you being shown a fake? Don’t panic: this may be due to an error. In certain cases, the system simply thinks that it is a counterfeit. The following steps should be followed:

  • Check whether a QR code is present
  • Check whether the QR code is damaged (if so, the serial number of the product can also be entered in the app)
  • Clean the camera lens
  • Clean the security label
  • Scan again with another smartphone

If it still doesn’t work, let us know. We will check it out. Technical complications are rare. In such cases, you are redirected to our app after the scan to scan the code again.

Important note: We can only guarantee that the respective oil is an original if the QR code is intact.

Frequently asked questions

Our team will review your details and contact you if they have any questions. If counterfeits are confirmed, we will take further steps.

Our technology is based on unique product identifiers and real-time verification. So you can rely on the result – provided the camera and label are intact.

We are gradually converting our oils to the new QR code with a green frame. During the transition phase, oils with both the old and the new codes are therefore in circulation. Oils without a green frame simply cannot yet be verified using the new digital authenticity check.

Only the new QR code with a green frame supports immediate digital verification. Oils with the previous code can still be checked – please use our contact form for this purpose. Our team will review the case as soon as possible and get back to you.

The counterfeit report takes you to our contact form. Please fill in the form. We will get in touch with you shortly.
