Defective Goods and Incorrect Deliveries

Any goods, which are damaged or defective, delivered after their "use by" or "best before" date, or which are not otherwise in accordance with the customer's order, may be returned Silica Gel Direct within a reasonable time after delivery, at no cost to the customer.

For all warranty claims, Silica Gel Direct will arrange for pick up and assessment of the goods at no cost to the customer. If a product is determined faulty through no fault of the customer, then Silica Gel Direct will facilitate a replacement of the product or offer a refund.

Limitation of Liability: Silica Gel Direct will not accept a returned product where in its reasonable opinion the product is not faulty, the customer has caused the product to become unacceptable or failed to take steps to prevent the product from becoming unacceptable or where the product has been damaged by abnormal use or use not in accordance with Silica Gel Directs instructions. Silica Gel Direct reserves the right to recover its reasonable costs in relation to goods returned in these circumstances. To the extent permitted by law, under this Refunds Policy Silica Gel Direct shall not be liable for collateral, consequential, indirect, incidental or exemplary damages, or any lost profits, related to the goods.
