These terms apply to consumers (private individuals) buying windows, doors or sliding doors from Filplast B.V.
Article 1 — Definitions
- Filplast: Filplast B.V., registered in Doetinchem, CoC 98504266.

Article 2 — Applicability
- These terms apply to all quotes, offers and agreements between Filplast and the consumer.
- Deviations are only valid if agreed in writing and not to the detriment of the consumer.
- Your statutory rights as a consumer always remain fully in force. If any provision of these terms is void or voidable against a consumer, the remaining provisions stay in effect and the statutory rule applies in place of the invalid provision.
Article 3 — Quotes and offers
- All quotes are non-binding unless explicitly stated otherwise.
- A quote is valid for 30 days from the date of issue, unless otherwise indicated.

Article 4 — Prices
- All prices are in euros and inclusive of VAT. Transport and installation costs, where applicable, are stated separately and inclusive of VAT in the quote.
- The price agreed in the quote is fixed. Filplast may only adjust a price while the agreement has not yet been signed, for example in case of a demonstrable increase in raw material or production costs.

Article 5 — Delivery
- The standard delivery time is 4-5 weeks after signing the agreement and receipt of the deposit.
- Delivery times are indicative. If a delivery time is exceeded, Filplast is first given a reasonable period to still deliver. If that fails, you may dissolve the agreement. Your statutory rights in the event of late delivery (art. 7:19a Dutch Civil Code) remain fully in force.
- Delivery and any delivery costs are stated in the quote. Delivery is ex-factory unless otherwise agreed in the quote.
- For orders above €2,500 including VAT, transport to the door is free within the Netherlands.
- The risk of damage or loss only passes to you once you — or a carrier appointed by you that was not proposed by Filplast — have received the products (art. 7:11 Dutch Civil Code).
Article 6 — Payment
- A deposit of 30% is due upon entering the agreement.
- You pay the remaining amount on delivery, unless agreed otherwise in writing. As a consumer you can never be required to prepay more than 50% (art. 7:26(2) Dutch Civil Code).
- If you do not pay on time, you will first receive a reminder with a 14-day period to still pay. If you still do not pay, you are in default and Filplast may charge statutory interest and reasonable collection costs (art. 6:96 Dutch Civil Code).
Article 7 — Warranty
- Filplast provides a 10-year warranty on all delivered products, starting from the date of delivery.
- The warranty covers: profile deformation, discolouration, function of hardware, watertightness and insulation value of the glass package.
- The warranty lapses in case of: improper use, modifications by third parties, damage due to vandalism or external causes, and failure to follow maintenance instructions.
- When Filplast has performed the installation, the warranty also applies to the installation.
Article 8 — Complaints
- You report a defect within a reasonable time after you discovered it or should reasonably have discovered it. Notification within two months of discovery is timely in any event (art. 7:23 Dutch Civil Code).
- Filplast acknowledges your complaint and responds within a reasonable period with a proposal for repair, replacement or another appropriate solution.
- A complaint does not automatically release you from your payment obligation. Your statutory right to suspend payment in the event of a defect does remain (art. 6:262 Dutch Civil Code).
Article 9 — Right of withdrawal and cancellation
- All Filplast products are manufactured exclusively to the Customer's specifications. Pursuant to art. 6:230p sub c Dutch Civil Code, the statutory right of withdrawal for distance selling does not apply to these custom-made products.
- The Customer may cancel free of charge until Filplast has started production. Filplast will confirm in writing when production commences.
- If you cancel after production has started, you reimburse the production and material costs actually incurred. Filplast substantiates these costs and charges no more than the loss actually suffered.
Article 10 — Retention of title
- All delivered products remain the property of Filplast until the Customer has paid the full agreed amount, including any interest and costs.
- Until ownership has transferred, the Customer is not authorised to sell, encumber or otherwise dispose of the products in a manner that prejudices the rights of Filplast.

Article 11 — Liability
- The liability of Filplast is limited to the amount of the relevant agreement.

Article 13 — Applicable law
- Dutch law applies to all agreements.
- Filplast submits disputes to the competent court. As a consumer you may, within one month after Filplast invokes this provision, choose the court that is competent by law — for example the court of your own place of residence (art. 6:236 sub n Dutch Civil Code).
