Terms and Conditions

The following terms and conditions apply to the application and registration:

Registration in the Quality Label Infrared Register can take place if certain requirements are met. These requirements are outlined in the questions included in this application form. It is necessary for registration in the register that all requirements are met, unless otherwise specified in a question. Additionally, you must comply with and agree to these Terms and Conditions.
Registration can only take place upon prior payment to the foundation of the registration fee of EUR 550 per product group and prior payment to Peutz of the assessment fee of EUR 300 per product group. For the maintenance of registration, an annual fee of EUR 550 per registered infrared heating panel range is due in advance. These amounts must be paid within 2 weeks of the invoice date. In case of non-payment, deletion of the relevant registered Quality Label meters will occur. A registration in the Quality Label Infrared database, and with it the Quality Label Infrared Certificate, is valid for two years after the registration date as declared in the certificate.
The foundation has partnered with Peutz for expert judgment to verify if the requirements, as outlined in the questions, have been met. However, it reserves the right to (have) products investigated for compliance with the requirements, based on complaints from third parties or on its own initiative. Investigation may also occur for other aspects addressed in the questions. If it is found during the investigation that one of the requirements has not been met and an infrared heating panel range has been improperly registered in the register, the foundation is entitled to remove the relevant infrared heating panel range from the register. However, deletion will not occur until the relevant supplier has been notified in writing (including email) of the intention to delete and a period of 7 calendar days has passed. The costs of the investigation will be borne by the supplier in case of deletion. The involved supplier will indemnify the foundation against third-party claims and compensate for any liability of the foundation due to improper listing of products in the register.
In case of refusal by the foundation to register a supplier or their product(s), and in case of deletion by the foundation of an infrared heating panel range, the supplier may appeal to the District Court of The Hague within 2 weeks of receiving the relevant decision from the foundation.
The foundation is authorized to unilaterally amend the requirements for registration of suppliers and infrared heating panels ranges, within the two year validity period of the Quality Label Infrared registration, based on new legal requirements or other considerations that the foundation deems urgent. Suppliers are then obliged to ensure their products comply with the new legal requirements or other considerations on the day of entry into force of the new legal requirements or on the day specified by the foundation for other considerations, which will not be earlier than 2 months after the announcement of the considerations.
If no request for deletion is made and it later turns out that the new requirements have not been met, the foundation will remove the relevant products from the register and may impose a fine of up to EUR 50,000.
