Should services be sought from TekTile Australia to remedy or replace any Goods due to the above events, then such services will be charged at TekTile Australia's prevailing casual consulting rates at the time.

Where Goods are repaired or replaced, the warranty on the replacement or repaired goods is for the remaining period of the original warranty and not a further twelve (12) months.

TekTile Australia does not warrant fabrics and finishes of the Goods provided.

TekTile Australia has a strict no return policy, subject to the warranties permitted by law, where the Customer has changed their mind, made an incorrect choice, mistake or provided incorrect instructions.

TekTile Australia will not be responsible for replacement of Goods where the Goods do not match the exact description in terms of colour or finishes requested by the Customer and the Goods are in essence materially the same.

 

14. Force majeure

TekTile Australia shall not be liable for failure to supply the Goods and/or Services for any reason whatsoever outside the reasonable control of TekTile Australia including, without limitation to the generality of the forgoing industrial action, war, governmental action or regulation, act of God, riots, or non availability of stock or materials. Any such failure shall not affect the obligation of the Customer to pay for Goods and/or Services already supplied.

 

15. Severability

If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is or becomes invalid and not enforceable in accordance with its terms, all other provisions which are self-sustaining and capable of separate enforcement without regard to the invalid provisions shall be and continue to be valid and enforceable in accordance with their terms.
