goods by the Company. No addition to, nor any cancellation, variation or
waiver of, nor any promise not to enforce or rely on any or all of these
conditions or any other form of a contract in which they are incorporated

promise is agreed in writing by a Director of the Company. |
|
3. |
LIMITATION
OF LIABILITY |
|
(i) |
The
Company will at all times use its best endeavours to ensure the accuracy of
any statements in any document or discussion prior to conclusion of any
contract but will not in any circumstances be liable for any inaccuracy therein
and we cannot accept liability for any direct or indirect consequential or
incidental damages or for any other losses caused therein. |
|
(ii) |
Insofar
as there may be any liability on the Company arising out of its performance
or non-performance of this contract, such liability shall not, unless
otherwise expressly agreed in writing by a Director of the Company prior to conclusion
of the contract, extend to any loss of profit or other consequential loss
whatsoever, nor exceed the price of the goods in respect of which the claim
is made, whether such claim arises by reason of the default of the Company,
its servants or otherwise. |
|
4. |
HEALTH
& SAFETY |
|
|
The
goods included on this invoice have been designed and tested so as to be safe
and without risks to health when properly used. If the Customer, or any member of their firm, is in any doubt
as to the proper use of any item, for which it was designed and tested,
adequate information is immediately available and the article should not be
used until that information has been obtained. Such information is to be considered as integral to the goods and
must remain with the goods should they be resold at any time in the
future. |
|
5. |
GUARANTEE |
|
(i) |
The
Company guarantees its products as free from defects due to faulty material
or workmanship for 12 months from delivery (unless otherwise stated). The liability under this guarantee shall
be limited to the replacement of those parts found to be defective, and to
making good all defects arising solely from faulty material or workmanship
and excludes items that have been abused or worn through normal wear and
tear. |
|
(ii) |
Notice
in writing of any such defects should be sent to the Company immediately when
they are known, or ought reasonably to have been discovered. Goods represented by the Customer to be
defective should be consigned to the Company, carriage paid, for inspection only after the Company’s written
permission has been received. If the Company accepts liability, the repaired
or replacement products will be delivered to the Customer’s place of business
as soon as is practical. |
|
(iii) |
All
works pursuant to the Guarantee shall be carried out by the Company free of
charge to the Customer save that if the cost of such works shall be increased
by reason of any misuse of the goods by the Customer, or any use of the goods
after any fault has been discovered or ought reasonably to have been
discovered, or normal wear and tear, such increase shall be paid by the
Customer. |
|
6. |
RETENTION
OF TITLE |
|
(i) |
Legal
title in all goods at any time sold by the Company to the Customer shall
remain with the Company and shall not pass to the Customer until the later
of: |
|
(a) |
the date upon which
the Customer pays to the Company the full amount of any monies owed on or in
connection with those goods; and |
|
(b) |
the date upon which
the Customer has discharged all debts and obligations of any kind to the
Company, whether incurred before or after the purchase of the goods. |
|
(ii)
|
Until
the date of such payment the purchaser agrees to store the said goods in such
a way as to show that they are clearly the property of the Company. |
|
(iii) |
Until
the date of such payment the Customer is authorised to sell the goods only on
the Company's behalf as a Trustee for the
Company of the proceeds of such sale, or to the claim for such proceeds. The
Customer shall place such proceeds or any moneys realised by the said goods
in a separate account on behalf of the Company. The Customer shall remain accountable to
the Company for the goods and for their proceeds of sale until the date of
such payment. |
|
(iv) |
In
the event of the Customer being wound-up, having a receiver appointed or
being subject to any form of bankruptcy, voluntary arrangement or insolvency
proceedings whatsoever, the Customer will immediately notify the receiver or
agent of the fact that they are holding goods and/or monies belonging to the
Company and that these goods and/or monies are not part of the Customer's
assets. The Customer or their receiver or agent will immediately notify the
Company of such proceedings and despatch all goods and monies belonging to,
or held on behalf of the Company to the Company. |
|
(v) |
So
long as the property in the goods remains vested in the Company, the Company
shall be at liberty at any time to retake possession thereof and for that
purpose to enter upon any premises of the Customer. |
|
(vi) |
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the goods shall be at the entire risk of the Customer from the
time of delivery and the Customer will be responsible for insuring the goods
against loss or damage. |
|
7. |
DELIVERY |
|
(i) |
The
time of delivery is the time at which the goods are ready for transportation
from the premises of the Manufacturer or from the premises of the Company. |
|
(ii) |
The
Company will use its best endeavours to ensure that goods are ready for
delivery at the time or times agreed, but shall not be liable for
non-delivery or delays in delivery caused by factors beyond its control. |
|
(iii) |
The
Customer shall not be entitled to cancel by reason of any delay in delivery
arising from factors beyond the control of the Company. |
|
(iv) |
The
Company reserves the right to make delivery by instalment and each instalment
shall be deemed to be sold under a separate contract, and no failure of or
delay in delivery of any instalment nor any defect in the contents thereof shall
entitle the Customer to treat the contract as repudiated with regard to any
remaining instalments |
|
(v) |
Non-delivery
of goods must be notified to us within 7 days of date of despatch. Partial delivery, pilferage or breakage
must be reported in writing to the carriers and to the Company within 3 days
of delivery. It is essential however,
in the case of pilferage or damage, that any signatures acknowledging receipt
of the goods indicate the actual condition of the consignment as received and
that all packaging is retained for inspection. Unless these conditions are adhered to, we regret that we
cannot accept responsibility. |
|
8. |
RETURNS/CANCELLATION |
|
|
Goods
correctly supplied or manufactured to the Customer's order cannot be accepted
for return, exchange, credit or cancellation unless by prior agreement in
writing, when a handling / cancellation charge of at least 20% of Invoice
value will be made. Returned or cancelled non-stock or specially manufactured
items may incur a handling / cancellation charge of 100% or more. Absolutely no goods will be accepted for
return without written permission and a returns number from the Company. |
|
9. |
PRICE |
|
(i) |
In
addition to the price quoted, the Customer shall pay any charges by respect
of the transportation of the goods from the premises of the Company or place
of manufacture, including any import and customs duty, storage and forwarding
charges. |
|
(ii) |
If
the cost of the goods to the Company shall increase at any time between the
date of quotation and payment in full by the Customer by reason of
fluctuation of exchange rates, increase in Manufacturers’ price, variation in
rates of duty or any other reason whatsoever, the Company shall be entitled
to increase the price of goods to the Customer by the amount of such increase
in costs. The Company may amend the
price to take into account any accidental error therein or any variation in
the contract agreed with the Customer. |
|
(iii) |
The
price shall be paid within thirty days of the date of invoice and no
deduction shall be made by the Customer from any payment due in respect thereof. Time shall be of the essence of all
payments due and due payment of the price of each instalment thereof shall be
a condition precedent to the liability of the Company in respect of the
delivery of the goods and to the operation of its Guarantee in respect
thereof. |
|
(iv) |
Any
discounts from our list prices are subject to full payment being made within
the stated terms. In the event of
payment not being made within the stated terms, the Customer will be liable
for the full list price of the goods as stated on the Company’s price list
and an invoice for the amount of the discount will be raised. |
|
(v) |
In
the event of payment not being made within the terms stated on the invoice,
the Customer will be liable for pro-rata interest on any amounts due at 2% above
the Bank of England base rate, or at a rate set by the UK government under
the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998, whichever is
higher. In such an event, interest is
chargeable in addition to the loss of any discounts and is also chargeable on
the amount of the discount lost. |
|

PAYMENT |
|
|
The
terms of payment are stated on the invoice.
Where payment terms of 30 days are stated full settlement must be made

and no variation will be permitted unless expressly agreed in writing. |
|
11. |
SPECIFICATIONS |
|
|
The
Company reserves the right to vary from time to time the Specification of
goods as set out in their catalogues or other literature. Unless such variation adversely affects
the performance of the goods, the Customer shall remain bound to accept
delivery thereof. |
|
12. |

|
|
The
Company reserves the right of ownership in all plans, designs, drawings,
samples and specifications relating to the goods and such documents shall not
