Terms and Conditions

Preliminary Work

Work produced, whether experimentally or otherwise, at customer’s request will be charged for.

Passing of Property

The property of the goods shall notwithstanding delivery to purchaser remain the Seller’s until Purchaser has paid the full price as well as all other sums whatsoever due to seller. If at any time payment of the price or of any other sums due to Seller is overdue, Seller may by its servants or agents enter upon Purchasers premises and recover and dispose of the goods, and Purchaser shall make no claim against Seller in respect of such entry or disposal. Purchaser may in the ordinary course of business mix the goods with other objects or convert the goods into other objects whether by the process of manufacture or otherwise and whether or not such mixture or conversion renders the goods unidentifiable. In that event, the property in the mixture or the converted goods as the case may be shall forthwith pass to Seller and remain with Seller from the moment of mixture or conversion until the Purchaser has paid all sums whatsoever due to Seller, and the provisions of the sub-clauses shall apply to any such mixture or converted goods as if it or they were the goods themselves.

Expedited Delivery

Should delivery or work be required sooner than the normal time requisite for its proper production, every effort will be made to secure freedom from defects, but reasonable allowance must be made by the customer in such cases. Should such delivery necessitate over-time being worked or other additional cost being incurred, a charge will be made to cover the increased cost.

Payment

The Seller may invoice the Buyer for the price of the goods on or at any time after delivery of the goods, unless the goods are to be collected by the Buyer or the Buyer wrongfully tails to take delivery of the goods in which event the Seller shall be entitled to invoice the Buyer for the price at any time after the Seller has notified the Buyer that the goods are ready for collection or (as the case may be) the seller has tendered delivery of the goods. Payment is due on the date specified on the invoice and time for payment of the price shall be of the essence. The Seller reserves the right to charge commercial Buyers interest and compensation (both before and after any judgement) on overdue accounts under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1988, as supplemented by the Late Payment of Commercial Debts Regulations 2002. The Seller reserves the right to assign any outstanding debts to a debt recovery agency. All outstanding debts of the Buyer at the point of assignment will be transferred. Any additional costs incurred by the Seller will be added to the Buyers account.

Claims

Any complaint must be made within ten days of receipt of goods.

Customer’s Property

Customer’s property when supplied will be held at the customers risk. Every care will be taken to secure the best results where materials are supplied by customers, but responsibility will not be accepted for imperfect work caused by defects in or unsuitability of materials so supplied.

Consequential Loss

Responsibility will not be accepted for consequential loss or damage occasioned by errors, or by delay in delivery.

Force Majeure

Every effort will be made to carry out any contract based on an estimate, but the due performance of it is subject to variation or cancellation owing to an Act of God, War, Strikes, Lock-outs, Fire, Flood, Drought or any other cause beyond control, or owing to inability to produce materials or articles except at increased prices due to any of the foregoing causes.

Cost Variation

Quotations are based on the current cost of production (materials, working hours and wages), and are subject to amendment on or after acceptance to meet a recognised rise or fall in such cost.

Divisibility Clause

This contract is divisible. Each delivery made hereunder shall be deemed to arise from a separate contract and shall be invoiced separately; any invoice for a delivery shall be payable in full in accordance with the terms of payment provided for herein, without reference to and notwithstanding any defect of default in delivery of any other instalment
