Broadloom
Kasthall offers a product warranty on all wall-to-wall carpets.
The warranty period and coverage vary depending on the
specific carpet variant and are typically three (3) or five (5)
years. Warranty claims are assessed in accordance with
the applicable warranty conditions for the relevant carpet
variant, and documentation such as proof of purchase and
photos may be required.
This warranty applies under the condition that the product is
used correctly according to recommendations, care instructions, and product performance as stated in Kasthall’s product
datasheet. Normal wear and tear and changes resulting from
ordinary use do not constitute a product defect. This includes,
without limitation, shedding, pilling, flattening/compression,
shade or sheen variations, minor texture irregularities, and effects caused by dirt, moisture, sunlight, cleaning, or furniture.
WARRANTY LIMITATIONS
The warranty does not include damage to the Rug
resulting from:
• Misuse, negligence, accidents, or improper handling
and/or storage.
• Use for a purpose for which the Rug was not intended.
Usage not in accordance with technical/performance
specifications available on Kasthall’s website
• Incorrect or inadequate maintenance or care

Installation instructions must be followed, and installation must be carried out by a professional installer in accordance with Kasthall’s installation instructions for the specific product.
Care advice and installation instructions are available on Kasthall’s website.
The warranty does not cover changes or adaptations to the product carried out by third parties. Normal wear and tear,
dirt, the effects of extreme emperatures, outdoor use, or abnormal climate conditions are considered normal and not covered. The warranty also does not cover secondary sorting products. When placing an order for complementary products, color variations may occur, as natural materials such as wool and linen change over time.

Examples include natural disasters, war, pandemics, strikes, supply shortages, transport disruptions, etc.
Deadlines are extended accordingly. If the event lasts more than 12 weeks, either party may terminate the order, with payment due for completed work and incurred costs.
Force majeure does not relieve the Buyer of payment obligations for delivered goods.

13.1. The parties shall first attempt to resolve disputes through negotiation.
If unresolved, disputes shall be settled by Swedish courts, with Borås District Court as the first instance.
Swedish substantive law shall apply.
