ELIGIBILITY
UFP Warranty Corporation (the “Warrantor”) is pleased to extend this Warranty to you, the original Consumer of the Deckorators product. This
Warranty is valid for original Consumers of Deckorators Decking, Porch Flooring and Composite Railing material used in standard single family
residential dwellings and may not be assigned or transferred by you. This Warranty only applies to product purchased and installed in the United
States or Canada. This warranty does not cover color variation, scratches, or surface marks. Warrantor’s sole obligation is limited to refund or
replacement of the product, and warrantor shall have no further liability or obligation except as expressly stated herein, if a claim is made under this
warranty on a product that is no longer available, warrantor reserves the right to substitute a similar product of equivalent value. Please refer to the
Warranty Coverage Matrix below to determine what warranty coverage applies to your product.
25-YEAR STRUCTURAL LIMITED WARRANTY
Warrantor will, at its option, either replace or refund the appropriate prorated portion of the purchase price as set forth in the “Prorated Refund
Schedule” below for any Deckorators Decking, Porch Flooring or Composite Railing product used in a residential decking, porch flooring or railing
application that splinters, corrodes or becomes structurally unfit due to rot, warp, cupping, checks or damage caused by termites or fungal decay
within 25 years from the date of purchase.
25-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY – STAIN RESISTANCE
Warrantor will, at its option, either replace or refund the appropriate prorated portion of the purchase price as set forth in the “Prorated Refund
Schedule” below for any Deckorators Decking, Porch Flooring or Composite Railing product used in a residential decking or railing application that
exhibits permanent staining in the first 25 years from the date of purchase when exposed to food and beverage spills, including wine, tea, coffee,
fruit punch, sodas, catsup, salad oils, barbeque sauces, mustard and other food- or beverage- related items that would typically be present on
a residential deck or porch. This Warranty will only apply if an attempt is made by Consumer to remove any such spill from the decking material
with water and mild household cleaners within forty-eight (48) hours of exposure to the surface, and such attempt is unsuccessful. Staining as a
result of spilled abrasive compounds of acidic or basic pH, strong solvents, oil-based paints or stains, metallic rust and other abnormal items not
commonly used on a residential deck are not covered under this Warranty.

than five (5) Delta E (CIE) when calculated according to ASTM D2244 for all non-variegated color surfaces. Excessive Color Fade for variegated
color surfaces is defined as an unreasonable amount of color change in excess of “Normal Weathering.”
