Spanish term or phrase: contratipar
In a Supplier/distributor agreement for Spain. The context is as follows:

El Distribuidor se compromete a no copiar ni fabricar, ni hacer fabricar o contratipar por terceros los productos del Suministrador.

I can only find this term linked with chemistry meaning to countertype but not sure this is the right word for this context. Would copy be an adequate translation? TIA

Explanation:
I agree with you, I think the author has just decided to use a synonym for "copiar" the second time...

agree  Elizabeth Slaney: I think so too. Perhaps you could put something like "replicate"?

  -> True, but I prefer to use the same word (again and again!) in a legal text. Many thanks Liz!;-)

Jane,its hard to believe you studied in English.Change your dictionary if you don't have counterfeit in there!To counterfeit means to imitate something. Counterfeit products are fake replicas of the real product. Counterfeit products are often produced with the intent to take advantage of the superior value of the imitated product. The word counterfeit frequently describes both the forgeries of currency and documents, as well as the imitations of clothing, handbags, shoes, pharmaceuticals, aviation and automobile parts, watches, electronics (both parts and finished products), software, works of art, toys, movies.[1] Counterfeit products tend to have fake company logos and brands. In the case of goods, it results in patent infringement or trademark infringement. Counterfeit consumer products have a reputation for being lower quality

Asker: thanks for your input but this is not in the dictionary. How can you be sure? Do you have any sources?

Asker: Hi Jude, sorry I didn't make myself clear. I was unable to find 'contratipar' in any sense apart from in chemistry texts and was hoping to find examples of it used in similar text to mine or possibly a definition of it.
