Warranty advantage
Flat Warranty means the cover does not shrink.
Nippon Paint provides a Flat Warranty, ensuring complete support throughout the entire warranty period — while a depreciation-based warranty loses value every year.
Nippon Paint
Flat Warranty
Complete support throughout the entire warranty period. If an eligible paint failure occurs, Nippon Paint covers both paint and labour, subject to the warranty terms and conditions.
- No depreciation deduction
- Paint cost covered
- Labour cost covered
- Same value in year one and year five
Industry standard
Depreciation Warranty
Cover is reduced progressively as the warranty period elapses, so a failure in a later year is worth far less than the same failure in the first year.
- Depreciation applied annually
- Partial paint cost
- Partial labour cost
- Diminished value over time

| Paint cost on eligible failure | Covered, subject to terms | Partially covered |
| Labour cost on eligible failure | Covered, subject to terms | Partially covered |
| Depreciation deduction | None | Applied year on year |
| Value in later years | Same as year one | Diminished |
Warranty coverage is provided by the paint manufacturer and applies to eligible paint failures only, subject to the manufacturer's terms and conditions. Talk to us before finalising the system so the specification stays within warranty.
