This guarantee is valid for a period of two calendar years after receipt of the goods sold by the buyer.

The purpose of this guarantee is to establish a division of risks between the seller and the buyer in such a way that the consequences of a breach of a guarantee are always entirely at the expense and risk of the seller and that the seller can never invoke Article 6:75 of the Dutch Civil Code in respect of a breach of a guarantee. The provisions of the previous sentence also apply if the buyer was aware or could have been aware of the infringement by carrying out an investigation.
