EXTENDED MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP WARRANTY

Meridian Manufacturing Inc. (hereinafter referred to as Meridian) hereby warrants the bin(s) sold by it to be free from any defect in 
material or workmanship under normal use and service for a period of five (5) years from the date of shipment. Meridian's Warranty is 
as follows: ten (10) years on structural integrity, one (1) year paint for liquid and commercial storage bins from the date of shipment to 
owner and in the manner referred to in paragraph 2 herein.

THIS WARRANTY IS SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING LIMITATIONS, PROVISIONS AND CONDITIONS:

1.  This warranty does not apply:

a.  To any product sold by Meridian where it is used in areas exposed to corrosive or aggressive conditions including salt water, 

acids, alkaloid, ash, cement dust, animal waste or other corrosive chemicals from either inside or outside the bin.

b.  For failures or defects arising out of damage during shipment or during storage on site.
c.  To materials replaced or repaired under this warranty except to the extent of the remainder of the applicable warranty.
d.  To damage resulting from misuse, negligence, accident or improper site preparation by others.
e.  If the product has been altered or modified by others.
f.  If in the case of coating failures the failure is the result of damage, lack of proper maintenance or failure to remove road salt or 

other contaminants that may have come in contact with the bin surface.

g.  If the product has not been erected and installed strictly in accordance with Meridian’s manuals and instructions.

2.  The obligation of Meridian under this warranty shall not arise unless Meridian is notified and this warranty is presented together 

with a written statement specifying the claim or defect within thirty (30) days after the failure is first detected or made known to 
the owner and within five (5) years for general and coating claims and ten (10) years for structural claims, from the shipment date. 
Meridian, in its sole discretion shall determine if the claim is valid and whether correction of the defect or failure shall be made by 
repair or replacement of the materials.

3.  The obligation of Meridian hereunder extends only to the original owner and to the Meridian dealer to whom the materials may have 

been initially sold. This warranty shall not be subject to any assignment or transfer without the written consent of Meridian.

4.  The customer shall acknowledge that it has made its own independent decision to approve the use of the supplied materials and 

also the specific fabrication and construction procedures utilized to complete the bin, and has satisfied itself as to the suitability of 
these products for this particular application.

5.  The foregoing sets forth the only warranties applicable to said materials and said warranties are given expressly and in lieu of 

all other warranties, expressed or implied, statutory or otherwise, of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose and all 
warranties which exceed or differ from said warranties herein are disclaimed by Meridian.

6.  The owner's sole and exclusive remedy against Meridian shall be limited to the applicable warranty set forth herein and the 

endorsements, if any, issued together with this document and no other remedy (including but not limited to the recovery of assembly 
or disassembly costs, shipping costs, direct, incidental, special, indirect or consequential damages for lost profits, lost sales, injury 
to person or property or any other loss, whether arising from breach of contract, breach of warranty, tort, including negligence, 
strict liability or otherwise) shall be available to the owner or Meridian Dealer or any other person or entitles whether by direct action 
or for contribution or indemnity or otherwise.

7.  The financial obligation of Meridian under this warranty shall be limited to the repair or replacement of the product as originally 

supplied and in no event shall exceed the original cost of the product supplied.

8.  Meridian shall not have any obligation under any warranty herein until all accounts for materials, installation and erection of the said 

product thereof and for labor and other work performed by Meridian or its dealers have been paid in full by the owner.
