Warranty
Biona GmbH provides a guarantee in accordance with the following conditions for all products in the Biona range:The guarantee applies to material defects in our products that are demonstrably due to a material and/or manufacturing defect if and to the extent that we are notified of such defects within the specified guarantee period after the date of dispatch of the delivery to the first purchaser. Material defects in this sense are deviations from the contractually agreed quality (target quality). This target quality is measured exclusively according to the description of the service or article at the time of the conclusion of the contract. Normal market wear and tear as well as defects or impairments due to improper handling, non-observance of the instructions for use or assembly or other instructions for use or care provided are not considered to be material defects. Furthermore, the warranty does not include minor deviations from the nominal quality of the goods which do not significantly affect the described functionality or the value of the goods. Furthermore, we exclude claims that are caused by transport damage for which we are not responsible. The warranty claim expires in case of misuse or non-household use of the goods. Likewise, the warranty does not apply if repairs or interventions have been carried out by persons who are not authorized by us to do so, or if our articles have been fitted with spare parts or accessories that are not original parts and thus cause a defect.
The warranty is limited to the legal requirement of two years.
Signs of wear and tear usual in the market
Visco foam adapts perfectly to the body in the manner described and is also durable when used on flat surfaces. However, small tears may occur in places where the foam is frequently bent or rolled, especially with our supports. Such tears do not affect the perfect pressure relief and effect of the visco-foam and are NOT covered by the warranty. In the case of foams without covers, discoloration of the material is possible, which is caused by the effect of UV light - but the quality is not affected. Pilling is another phenomenon that occurs with regular use and is caused by individual fibers that work their way out of the textile and knot on its surface. The quality is not affected by this.
Defects or impairments caused by improper handling, non-observance of the instructions for use or assembly or other instructions for use or care provided.
In general, all products should be kept away from UV radiation in order to ensure the longest possible service life.
Dimensional deviations, adhesions
Dimensional deviations are due to production and/or cutting technology. Tolerances of + - 1 cm are normal for our delivery items and are part of the contractually agreed quality. In general, bonding is customary in the foam industry, neither of which is a reason for complaint.
Dispute settlement of the EU-Commission
