CONFIDEX GUARANTEE CERTIFICATE
CONFIDEX® GUARANTEE
The term "Confidex Guarantee" refers to a guarantee of the Product against paint
delamination and, where applicable, a guarantee against excessive colour change.
This certificate validates the Confidex Guarantee in respect of the Building
identified below. This certificate is evidence of the relationship between Tata
Steel UK Limited and the Building Owner (which term means Tata Steel UK
Limited's original customer or any notified transferee who is the registered
freeholder of the Building). Please keep it in a safe place and make a note of
the guarantee registration number. The paint delamination guarantee is based on
and lasts for the Guarantee Period (as stated below), which is the length of
time before a Building Owner needs to consider whether to repaint the Building’s
exterior. It is guaranteed that, for this period, on any single plane (i.e. one
wall or one roof slope), not more than 5% or 100 square metres of the painted
surface, whichever is the lesser area, will be affected by paint
delamination. If the Product does not meet these criteria, Tata Steel UK Limited
will restore the defective material according to the terms of this
Confidex Guarantee.

The Confidex® Guarantee for the Product requires the Building Owner to perform
certain tasks to maintain the benefit of the Confidex® Guarantee.
Obligations of the Building Owner
1. In general, no inspection or maintenance is required to maintain the validity
of the Confidex® Guarantee, except when material is used in areas subject to
build-up of dirt or debris, contact with sea spray or where Colorcoat HPS200
Ultra® or 3 layer Colorcoat Prisma® Solid, Metallic or Matt colours are used on
a roof or wall that has a Photovoltaic (PV) installation. For those situations,
please see Exclusions 4 and 13 and the Confidex® PV Addendum in addition to this
certificate for details of the required inspection and maintenance conditions.
2. Colorcoat Prisma® manufactured in standard colours after 1st October 2017 is
guaranteed against excessive colour change for the period and subject to the
terms and conditions, limitations and exclusions set out in a Confidex®
Guarantee Colour Addendum, which is issued on request where applicable.
3. To invoke this guarantee, the Building Owner or its agent must notify Tata
Steel UK Limited in writing within 30 days of the identification of any defect
(and in any event, no later than the expiry of the relevant Guarantee Period)
indicating a failure of the Product to conform to the terms of the guarantee.
The notification must be made using Tata Steel UK Limited’s standard form
document, must be sent to Tata Steel UK Limited and must include the
registration number or a copy of the registration details. Tata Steel UK Limited
must then be given a reasonable opportunity to inspect the alleged defect. Any
notification received after 10% or 200 square metres of the painted surface
(whichever is the lesser area) has been affected by paint delamination will be
invalid.
4. In respect of any inspection or repair of the Product by Tata Steel UK
Limited its agents or contractors, the Building Owner shall ensure that there is
adequate and safe roof access.
5. The Building Owner must notify Tata Steel UK Limited of any change of
building use in writing within 90 (ninety) days of such change.

The Confidex® Guarantee for the Product is subject to the following Limitations
and Exclusions.
Limitations
1. This Confidex® Guarantee applies only to deterioration of the weatherside of
the Product when used in standard cladding applications within Zones 1 and 2.
2. This Confidex® Guarantee includes the condition of the cut edges for the
duration of the relevant Guarantee Period in accordance with this clause 2 (not
applicable to material with a gauge of 1mm or more). Limited edge peel may arise
from normal weathering at sheet overlaps and at eaves. However given the
superior corrosion protection provided by the unique Galvalloy® substrate of
Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® and Colorcoat Prisma®, this phenomenon will not impair
the functionality of the cladding. In the unlikely event that edge peel is
premature and deemed to be excessive by Tata Steel UK Limited, Tata Steel UK
Limited will undertake to investigate and carry out any remedial action to
ensure that the cladding system will be fully serviceable at the end of the
Guarantee Period. Cut edges are defined as those manufactured in
factory-controlled conditions using conventional shearing procedures. Cut edges
generated by alternative processes or on-site should be subject to best
practice, including painting where necessary. Refer to Tata Steel UK Limited for
guidance.
3. Only Buildings designed or constructed in accordance with the current
guidelines on Tata Steel UK Limited website:www.colorcoat-online.com will be
covered by the Confidex® Guarantee. In particular, but without limitation, all
cut edges on flashings shall be welted. Flashings are only guaranteed when used
in conjunction with Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat Prisma® cladding sheets
or panels. Because the surface of flashings can emulate roofs, walls or both,
their durability is determined by the function they perform. If a single
flashing emulates both a roof and a wall, the entire flashing is assumed to have
the durability of a roof. Both the design of flashings and their application to
the building should follow Tata Steel UK Limited’s recommendations.
4. The legal remedy of the Building Owner and the obligation of Tata Steel UK
Limited (whether under this Confidex® Guarantee, tort or otherwise) is limited
solely to the cost of labour and materials for restoring the defective plane
during the Guarantee Period or, where relevant, the colour guarantee period.
Tata Steel UK Limited shall be entitled, at its sole discretion, to determine
the appropriate measures to be taken in order to provide suitable restoration in
the event of failure.
5. Under no circumstances shall Tata Steel UK Limited (or any of its associated
companies) be liable for any loss, damage or expense whatsoever incurred or
suffered by the Building Owner (including, but without limitation, loss of
profit, revenue or goodwill) howsoever such loss, damage, or expense may have
been caused (including, but without limitation, any breach of contract,
negligence or breach of any duty of Tata Steel UK Limited whatsoever) other than
as set out under paragraph 4 above.
6. For Buildings situated at altitudes greater than 900m a 20% reduction in
duration of the Guarantee Period applies.
Exclusions
This Confidex® Guarantee does not apply to failure or damage caused by or due
to:
1. Fire, lightning, flood, explosion, abnormal winds, earthquake, acts of war,
riots, civil commotion, radiation, falling objects, vandalism, ground movement
or failure of foundations or other extraneous causes;
2. Misuse, wilful act, negligence or incorrect or unsuitable specification or
use of the Product;
3. Any damage whatsoever caused to the Product during or following fabrication,
storage, transport or erection;
4. Accumulations of dirt or debris or failure or damage in areas not exposed to
washing by rainfall, unless such areas are washed at a frequency commensurate
with both the application and external environment of the Product and the local
environment of the Building (and the Building Owner’s records clearly
demonstrate that fact);
5. Ponding on roofs and inadequately sealed overlaps allowing retention of water
and other contaminants;
6. Emissions of harmful gases, fumes or chemicals from either natural or
man-made sources at or within 400m of the original erection site;
7. Exposure to continuous temperatures howsoever caused greater than: 60°C in
the case of Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra®; or 90°C in the case of Colorcoat Prisma®;
8. Any screw, rivet, fastener or other attachment or thing fixed (or attempted
to be fixed) to any part of the Product during or after erection, except for PV
on a Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat Prisma® roof or wall which is fitted
and maintained in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Confidex® PV
Addendum;
9. Deterioration caused by contact with wet, green or treated timber or due to
direct or indirect contact with corrosive materials;
10. Any alteration, extension or modification to or re-erection of the Product
after erection, except for the installation of a PV array on a Colorcoat HPS200
Ultra® or Colorcoat Prisma® roof or wall which is fitted and maintained in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Confidex® PV Addendum;
11. The performance of any touch-up paint or overpaint used on the panels
before, during or after erection;
12. Corrosion or other effects arising from elements within the Building,
corrosion arising from entrapment of pollutants including (without limitation)
within overlaps or from abnormal atmospheric pollution or contact with
aggressive gases, fumes or chemicals;
13. Direct contact with sea spray (when in a Coastal environment), unless
regular washing is undertaken to stop the build-up of salt on the Product and
the Building Owner’s records clearly demonstrate that fact;
14. Roofs with pitches lower than 1° (one degree);
15. Soffits; or
16. The use of Products manufactured more than 18 (eighteen) months before the
Completion Date of the Building.

CONFIDEX® PHOTOVOLTAIC (PV) ADDENDUM USED WITH PV FRAME MODULES
This document is an addendum to and must be read in conjunction with the
Confidex® Guarantee by Tata Steel
Confidex® Guarantee No. 56748
PV Addendum Issued Jul 01, 2022
This addendum forms part of the Confidex® Guarantee and provides the additional
terms on which the Confidex® Guarantee covers Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® and 3
layer Colorcoat Prisma® Solid, Metallic and Matt colours launched on 1st October
2017 used on a roof or wall that has a PV installation. Owing to the potentially
more aggressive environment created beneath / behind / adjacent to the PV array,
additional terms and conditions are required to mitigate the increased risks of
corrosion and degradation of the Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® and Colorcoat
Prisma® due to reduced natural wash down.
The inclusion of PV installations on a roof or wall is likely to result in
unequal colour fade between those areas of the roof exposed to sunlight and
natural weathering and those areas of the roof or wall which are shaded by the
PV array. Such differential fading is normal and to be expected.
If a replacement Confidex® Guarantee incorporating this addendum is issued in
respect of a retro-fit PV installation on a Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat
Prisma® roof or wall then the replacement guarantee will be valid for the
unexpired period of the original guarantee.
Terms and Conditions
1. The Guarantee applies to Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® and Colorcoat
Prisma® Solid, Metallic and Matt colours when used on a roof or wall on to
which PV panels are mounted on a suitable framework supported above and
fixed indirectly to the cladding sheets / panels. The guarantee does not
apply to Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat Prisma® onto which a PV system
is directly bonded. The Guarantee does not apply to roofs or walls to which
PV is installed if the external cladding sheets/panels are not using
Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat Prisma®.
2. The PV array must be installed such that effective cleaning and maintenance
can be undertaken, including any future repair or maintenance which might be
required under the Guarantee. Safe access and roof safety systems must be
considered and the building Health and Safety file must include details of
the design considerations and risk control measures to allow inspection,
cleaning and construction work on the building at any time. Specifically,
the design of the array should give adequate regard to the need to clean
underneath the PV units to remove any build-up of general contamination and
debris, which would invalidate the guarantee.
3. In the unlikely event of a claim arising due to failure of any areas of
cladding beneath or adjacent to the PV array, it will be solely the
responsibility of the building owner to provide safe and adequate access to
allow Tata Steel to investigate and instigate remedial measures as deemed
necessary by Tata Steel. In any case, Tata Steel will not be responsible for
removing / replacing PV panels, their mounting brackets / framework or
cabling to facilitate repair or replacement of cladding sheets or panels.
4. Areas of cladding affected by the PV array should not be considered
"maintenance free to maintain the validity of the Confidex® Guarantee"
because they are more likely to accumulate debris and dirt and are less
exposed to rainfall. Accordingly, roofing or walls covered by PV arrays must
be regularly cleaned and accurate records of cleaning must be retained for
future reference. The frequency of maintenance / cleaning operations should
be commensurate with local environmental conditions. Particularly harsh
environments including (but not limited to) heavy industrial exposure,
locations subject to salt deposition and areas affected by leaf litter will
inevitably require more rigorous and frequent attention to ensure the
ongoing validity of the guarantee. Cleaning and maintenance should be
carried out in accordance with Tata Steel's Inspection and Maintenance
brochure which forms an integral part of this guarantee. The guide can be
downloaded from www.colorcoat-online.com
5. The Guarantee does not apply to failure or damage caused by or due to any
alteration to the Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat Prisma® product
caused by the PV array installation including (but not limited to)
perforations for mounting brackets, additional fasteners, cabling
penetrations and associated sealants.

The Confidex® Guarantee for the Product is subject to the following Limitations
and Exclusions.
Limitations
1. This Confidex® Guarantee applies only to deterioration of the weatherside of
the Product when used in standard cladding applications within Zones 1 and 2.
2. This Confidex® Guarantee includes the condition of the cut edges for the

superior corrosion protection provided by the unique Galvalloy® substrate of
Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® and Colorcoat Prisma®, this phenomenon will not impair
the functionality of the cladding. In the unlikely event that edge peel is
premature and deemed to be excessive by Tata Steel UK Limited, Tata Steel UK
Limited will undertake to investigate and carry out any remedial action to
ensure that the cladding system will be fully serviceable at the end of the
Guarantee Period. Cut edges are defined as those manufactured in
factory-controlled conditions using conventional shearing procedures. Cut edges
generated by alternative processes or on-site should be subject to best
practice, including painting where necessary. Refer to Tata Steel UK Limited for
guidance.
3. Only Buildings designed or constructed in accordance with the current
guidelines on Tata Steel UK Limited website:www.colorcoat-online.com will be
covered by the Confidex® Guarantee. In particular, but without limitation, all

in conjunction with Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat Prisma® cladding sheets
or panels. Because the surface of flashings can emulate roofs, walls or both,
their durability is determined by the function they perform. If a single
flashing emulates both a roof and a wall, the entire flashing is assumed to have
the durability of a roof. Both the design of flashings and their application to
the building should follow Tata Steel UK Limited’s recommendations.
4. The legal remedy of the Building Owner and the obligation of Tata Steel UK
Limited (whether under this Confidex® Guarantee, tort or otherwise) is limited
solely to the cost of labour and materials for restoring the defective plane
during the Guarantee Period or, where relevant, the colour guarantee period.
Tata Steel UK Limited shall be entitled, at its sole discretion, to determine
the appropriate measures to be taken in order to provide suitable restoration in
the event of failure.
5. Under no circumstances shall Tata Steel UK Limited (or any of its associated
companies) be liable for any loss, damage or expense whatsoever incurred or
suffered by the Building Owner (including, but without limitation, loss of
profit, revenue or goodwill) howsoever such loss, damage, or expense may have
been caused (including, but without limitation, any breach of contract,
negligence or breach of any duty of Tata Steel UK Limited whatsoever) other than
as set out under paragraph 4 above.
6. For Buildings situated at altitudes greater than 900m a 20% reduction in
duration of the Guarantee Period applies.
Exclusions

2. Misuse, wilful act, negligence or incorrect or unsuitable specification or
use of the Product;
3. Any damage whatsoever caused to the Product during or following fabrication,
storage, transport or erection;
4. Accumulations of dirt or debris or failure or damage in areas not exposed to
washing by rainfall, unless such areas are washed at a frequency commensurate
with both the application and external environment of the Product and the local
environment of the Building (and the Building Owner’s records clearly
demonstrate that fact);
5. Ponding on roofs and inadequately sealed overlaps allowing retention of water
and other contaminants;
6. Emissions of harmful gases, fumes or chemicals from either natural or
man-made sources at or within 400m of the original erection site;
7. Exposure to continuous temperatures howsoever caused greater than: 60°C in
the case of Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra®; or 90°C in the case of Colorcoat Prisma®;
8. Any screw, rivet, fastener or other attachment or thing fixed (or attempted
to be fixed) to any part of the Product during or after erection, except for PV
on a Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat Prisma® roof or wall which is fitted
and maintained in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Confidex® PV

CONFIDEX® PHOTOVOLTAIC (PV) ADDENDUM USED WITH PV FRAME MODULES
This document is an addendum to and must be read in conjunction with the
Confidex® Guarantee by Tata Steel
Confidex® Guarantee No. 56748
PV Addendum Issued Jul 01, 2022
This addendum forms part of the Confidex® Guarantee and provides the additional
terms on which the Confidex® Guarantee covers Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® and 3
layer Colorcoat Prisma® Solid, Metallic and Matt colours launched on 1st October
2017 used on a roof or wall that has a PV installation. Owing to the potentially
more aggressive environment created beneath / behind / adjacent to the PV array,
additional terms and conditions are required to mitigate the increased risks of
corrosion and degradation of the Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® and Colorcoat
Prisma® due to reduced natural wash down.
The inclusion of PV installations on a roof or wall is likely to result in
unequal colour fade between those areas of the roof exposed to sunlight and
natural weathering and those areas of the roof or wall which are shaded by the
PV array. Such differential fading is normal and to be expected.
If a replacement Confidex® Guarantee incorporating this addendum is issued in
respect of a retro-fit PV installation on a Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat
Prisma® roof or wall then the replacement guarantee will be valid for the
unexpired period of the original guarantee.
Terms and Conditions
1. The Guarantee applies to Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® and Colorcoat
Prisma® Solid, Metallic and Matt colours when used on a roof or wall on to
which PV panels are mounted on a suitable framework supported above and
fixed indirectly to the cladding sheets / panels. The guarantee does not
apply to Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat Prisma® onto which a PV system
is directly bonded. The Guarantee does not apply to roofs or walls to which
PV is installed if the external cladding sheets/panels are not using
Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat Prisma®.
2. The PV array must be installed such that effective cleaning and maintenance
can be undertaken, including any future repair or maintenance which might be
required under the Guarantee. Safe access and roof safety systems must be
considered and the building Health and Safety file must include details of
the design considerations and risk control measures to allow inspection,
cleaning and construction work on the building at any time. Specifically,
the design of the array should give adequate regard to the need to clean
underneath the PV units to remove any build-up of general contamination and
debris, which would invalidate the guarantee.
3. In the unlikely event of a claim arising due to failure of any areas of
cladding beneath or adjacent to the PV array, it will be solely the
responsibility of the building owner to provide safe and adequate access to
allow Tata Steel to investigate and instigate remedial measures as deemed
necessary by Tata Steel. In any case, Tata Steel will not be responsible for
removing / replacing PV panels, their mounting brackets / framework or
cabling to facilitate repair or replacement of cladding sheets or panels.
4. Areas of cladding affected by the PV array should not be considered
"maintenance free to maintain the validity of the Confidex® Guarantee"
because they are more likely to accumulate debris and dirt and are less
exposed to rainfall. Accordingly, roofing or walls covered by PV arrays must
be regularly cleaned and accurate records of cleaning must be retained for
future reference. The frequency of maintenance / cleaning operations should
be commensurate with local environmental conditions. Particularly harsh
environments including (but not limited to) heavy industrial exposure,
locations subject to salt deposition and areas affected by leaf litter will
inevitably require more rigorous and frequent attention to ensure the
ongoing validity of the guarantee. Cleaning and maintenance should be
carried out in accordance with Tata Steel's Inspection and Maintenance
brochure which forms an integral part of this guarantee. The guide can be
downloaded from www.colorcoat-online.com
5. The Guarantee does not apply to failure or damage caused by or due to any
alteration to the Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® or Colorcoat Prisma® product
caused by the PV array installation including (but not limited to)
perforations for mounting brackets, additional fasteners, cabling
penetrations and associated sealants.
