GUARANTEES
The requirements of this clause apply as an addition to your statutory consumer rights and concerns faulty or incorrectly described Products. These rights are not affected by the guarantee.
For the purpose of this clause the guarantor is Fabrili Ltd, registered address: 17 Central Park Estate, Hounslow, TW4 5DJ, United Kingdom.
All Fabrili furniture carries a 10-year frame and construction guarantee on faulty workmanship and faulty materials. Cushion coverings and fillings are guaranteed for one year from the date of delivery.
Guarantees cannot be assigned to a third party.
These guarantees do not cover normal wear and tear, abuse or misuse of your Products, neglect, loss or damage (including corrosion and rusting) due to unreasonable exposure to weather and water; loss or damage due to fire, explosion, smoke, lightning, sunlight, infestation by animals or insects, theft, accidental loss or damage caused by a third party.
FABRICS AND LEATHERS
Fabric batches and leather hides can vary because there may be slight variations in batches. Colour is the most common variation – though the variation is often very slight or close to negligible. Some fabrics are more susceptible to colour changes than others, with leather often prone to natural scars and marking.
While we guarantee to make all furniture in your order from the same batch, we cannot guarantee subsequent orders will match the original.
We cannot accept responsibility for fading or discolouration due to direct or indirect sunlight exposure. Sunlight affects fabrics differently, however, direct or indirect sunlight will always affect fabric colour. Darker fabrics are likely to fade and discolour more than light. Also, different fabrics, whether dark or light, are likely to discolour or fade at different rates.
We cannot accept responsibility for fading or discolouration, due to contact or exposure with any chemicals applied directly or sprayed nearby. Please be aware that certain aerosol sprays, mainly odour and nicotine neutralisers, contain chemicals that may react badly with fabric dyes (these sprays should warn against using them close to upholstery without first covering it).
When supplying COM (fabric) or COL (leather) to Fabrili, it is the client’s responsibility to ensure that all materials supplied are suitable for upholstery of furniture and the specific products selected. All fabrics or leathers supplied must be compliant with the required British Fire and Safety Regulations Act, including CRIB5 treatments for Commercial use.
Where possible, the application of an inter-liner option can be applied but will be subject to extra charges.
We will not be held liable for any delays of fabric/leather order deliveries, or costs associated due to these delays. Sales order production can only commence upon receipt of all fabrics and/or leathers required.
We will not be held liable for any flaws or defects in COM (customer’s own material) or COL (customer’s own leather) provided at any stage and cannot inspect fabrics or leathers supplied by the customer or your providers. We will not be held liable for any costs or damages associated with delayed deliveries or damaged goods.
All fabric and leather orders are required to be paid in full at the placement of order.
For cleaning of selected fabrics or leathers, please contact the fabric or leather supplier for Manufacturers recommended cleaning instructions.
All materials supplied by you are held by Fabrili at your risk. You should be
satisfied that you have sufficient insurance to cover the value of your supplied goods
