Composite Decking Warranty

Residential and commercial warranties for Hyperion Explorer and Hyperion Frontier Composite Decking.

Hyperion Frontier

Limited International Warranty

EnviroBuild Materials Ltd (“EnviroBuild”) warrants to the original purchaser (“Purchaser”) that, for the period of twenty five (25) years from the date of original purchase for a residential application, and fifteen (15) years from the date of original purchase for a commercial application, under normal use and service conditions that: Hyperion Decking (formally DURATRAC Decking) Frontier range (“Frontier”) products shall be free from material defects in workmanship and materials, and shall not split, splinter, rot or suffer structural damage from termites or fungal decay. In addition, Frontier products shall not fade in colour and shall be resistant staining as set out below:
Frontier products shall not fade in colour from light and weathering exposure as measured by colour change of more than 5 Delta E (CIE) units. Frontier products are designed to resist fading. No material is fade proof when exposed to years of UV exposure and the elements. Frontier products are designed to resist fading, and will not in any event fade by more than 5 Delta E (CIE) units.
Frontier products shall be resistant to permanent staining resulting from spills of food and beverage items including ketchup, mustard, salad oils, tea, wine, coffee, fruit punch, barbeque sauce, grease, sodas and other food and beverage related items that would typically be present on a residential deck, or mould and mildew naturally occurring in the environment, provided that such substances are removed from Frontier products with soap and water or mild household cleaners after no more than one (1) week of exposure of the food or beverage to the surface or first appearance of the mould and mildew. Notwithstanding the foregoing, EnviroBuild does not warrant that Frontier products are stain-proof, and does not warrant stain resistance resulting from spilled or otherwise applied food and beverage substances which are not properly cleaned as provided above within one (1) week of exposure. In addition, materials not covered in the stain resistant warranty include abrasive compounds of acidic or basic pH, paints or stains, strong solvents, metallic rust or other abnormal deck use items, and non-food and non-beverage substances, including but not limited to, biocides, fungicides, plant food, or bactericides. Mould and mildew can settle and grow on any outdoor surface, including Frontier products. You should periodically clean your deck to remove dirt and pollen that can feed mould and mildew. This warranty does not cover mould and mildew which is not properly cleaned as provided above within one (1) week of first appearance.
If a Purchaser discovers a defect in the Frontier product within the warranty period, the Purchaser shall notify EnviroBuild in writing to the following email address: info@envirobuild.com. If the Purchaser is making a claim relating to the warranty on stain resistance, Purchaser must do as follows:
(a) Purchaser must try to clean the affected area of the deck by using the cleaning procedures described above within one (1) week of exposure of the food or beverage to the Product or first appearance of the mould and mildew.
(b) If the affected area remains reasonably unsatisfactory after Purchaser has tried these cleaning procedures, then Purchaser must have the affected area of the deck professionally cleaned at Purchaser’s expense.
(c) If the affected area remains reasonably unsatisfactory after the professional cleaning, Purchaser may make a claim under this warranty, provided that such claim is made within thirty (30) days after the professional cleaning.
EnviroBuild reserves the right to request additional information in connection with the warranty claim. If EnviroBuild determines the Purchaser’s claim is valid upon confirmation by an authorized EnviroBuild representative of the defect, EnviroBuild’s sole responsibility shall be, at its option, to either replace the defective item or refund the portion of the purchase price paid by Purchaser for such defective item, as set out below (not including the cost of its initial installation or delivery). This warranty shall not cover and EnviroBuild shall not be responsible for costs and expenses incurred with respect to the removal of defective Frontier products or the installation of replacement materials, including but not limited to labour and delivery. The foregoing remedies are the SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR BREACH OF ANY WARRANTY.
For purposes of this warranty, a ‘residential application’ shall refer to an installation of the Frontier product on an individual residence, and a ‘commercial application’ shall refer to any installation of the Frontier product other than on an individual residence. If a valid warranty claim is made during the valid warranty period after the original purchase date, then the Purchaser's recovery will be prorated as indicated below. If EnviroBuild is providing replacement materials, it may elect to replace the percentage listed below of Frontier products; if EnviroBuild is refunding the purchase price, it may elect to refund the percentage listed below of the purchase price of the Frontier products.
