  • These conditions shall take precedence over any of the conditions of the Customer and shall not be varied without the written consent of a Director of The Company.
  • The Equipment referred to shall include all goods, services, accessories, tools and fittings and all additions and renewals made to the Equipment with the consent of The Company.

 

2. General

All orders are accepted and goods supplied by The Company subject to the following express terms and conditions and (so far as permitted by statute) all other conditions, warranties and representations, express or implied and statutory or otherwise, except as to title, are hereby excluded. The Company reserves the right to change these Terms and Conditions at any time.

 

3. Orders

  • The Company reserves the right (without prejudice to any other remedy) to cancel any uncompleted order or to suspend delivery in the event of any of the Customer’s commitments with The Company not being met. If an order is cancelled by The Company in the aforementioned circumstances, or is cancelled by the Customer then the Customer shall indemnify The Company against all loss, cost (including the costs of all labour and materials used and overheads incurred), damages, charges and expenses arising out of the order and the cancellation thereof, (The Company giving credit for the value of any such materials sold or utilised for other purposes).
  • In the event of the Customer wishing to reschedule any order or part of an order, this can only be agreed by a duly authorised representative of The Company, and a minimum notice period of thirty days must be given for any reschedule to be considered.

 

4. Extra Cost

In the event of any suspension of work through the Customer’s instructions or lack of instructions, the contract price(s) shall be increased to cover any extra expense thereby incurred by The Company. This does not apply to Support Contracts.

 

5. Dispatch Dates

Any times quoted for dispatch shall be treated as an estimate only. Whilst every endeavour will be made to meet these estimated times for dispatch The Company shall not be liable for failures to dispatch within the time quoted. Any times quoted for dispatch are to date from the receipt by The Company of a written order to proceed and of all necessary information and drawings to enable the work to be put in hand. In all cases, whether a time for dispatch be quoted or not, the time for dispatch shall be extended by a reasonable period if delay in dispatch is caused by instructions, or lack of instructions, from the Customer or by industrial dispute or by any cause whatsoever beyond the reasonable control of The Company.

  • Any damage to the goods in transit should be notified to the carrier and The Company within two days of receipt. The packing and contents are to be held for inspection.

If payment in full is not made in accordance with these conditions of sale The Company shall have the right (without prejudice to the obligation of the Customer to purchase the goods) to retake possession of the whole or any part of the goods and for that purpose to enter any premises occupied by the Customer and to sever the goods from anything to which they are attached without being liable for any damage caused thereby and without prejudice to any other remedy that may be available to The Company.
    If the Customer (who as between itself and any third part sub-purchaser shall be deemed to act on its own account and not as an agent for The Company) shall sell the goods prior to making payment in full for them, the beneficial entitlement of The Company therein shall attach to the proceeds of such sale or to the claim for such proceeds and the Customer shall hold such proceeds of sale on separate account for The Company absolutely.
