OUTDOOR
The material in our Outdoor Collection has been specially developed for outdoor use. The product is affected by how it is exposed to sunlight and
extreme temperatures. The expected durability of the material varies, with regard to bleaching and/or colour shifts.
In Europe, Asia, North and South America, its minimum durable life is five years. In northern and southern Africa, Micro-Polynesia and eastern
and southern Australia, its expected durable life is three years. We do not recommend the installation of this product in central African countries,
north-western Australia or other desert regions. Please contact your retailer for more details.
