1.1 In these Terms capitalised words will have the following meanings:

“Company Premises” the Company’s premises at Unit 10 Cary Court, Somerton Business Park, Somerton, Somerset, TA11 6SB;

“Purchase Order” the purchase order completed by the Customer and submitted to the Company containing details of the Contract;

“Terms” meaning the standard terms of sale set out in this document;

1.2 A reference in these Terms to a provision of a statute shall be construed as a reference to that provision as amended, re enacted or extended at the relevant time.

1.3 The headings in these Terms are for convenience only and shall not affect their interpretation.

1.4 These Terms and Conditions shall apply to all Contracts between the Company and the Customer relating to the sale of Products including all repeat orders and shall supersede any other Terms set out or referred to in the Purchase Order or any other correspondence between the Company and the Customer.

 

2. Basis of the Sale

2.1 The Company shall sell and the Customer shall purchase the Products in accordance with the Company’s written or verbal quotation (if accepted by the Customer), or the Customer’s Purchase Order (if accepted by the Company), subject in either case to these Terms, which shall govern the Contract.

2.2 No variation to these Terms shall be binding unless agreed in writing between the authorised representatives of the Customer and the Company.

2.3 The Company’s employees or agents are not authorised to make any representations concerning the Products unless confirmed by the Company in writing. In entering into the Contract the Customer acknowledges that it does not rely on any such representations which are not so confirmed, but nothing in these Terms affects the liability of either party for fraudulent misrepresentation.

2.4 Any advice or recommendation given by the Company or its employees or agents to the Customer or its employees or agents as to the storage, application or use of the Products (which is not confirmed in writing by the Company) is followed or acted upon entirely at the Customer’s own risk, and accordingly the Company shall not be liable for any such advice or recommendation which is not so confirmed.

2.5 Any typographical, clerical or other error or omission in any sales literature, quotation, price list, acceptance of offer, invoice or other document or information issued by the Company shall be subject to correction without any liability on the part of the Company.

 

3. Purchase Orders and Specifications

3.1 No order submitted by the Customer shall be deemed to be accepted by the Company unless and until confirmed in writing by the Company’s authorised representative.

3.2 The Customer shall be responsible to the Company for ensuring the accuracy of the terms of any Purchase Order (including any applicable specification) submitted by the Customer, and for giving the Company any necessary information relating to the Products within sufficient time to enable the Company to perform the Contract in accordance with the Terms.

3.3 The Company is entitled to refuse any Purchase Order placed by the Customer and will not be required to provide an explanation.

3.4 No Purchase Order which has been accepted by the Company may be cancelled by the Customer except with the prior consent in writing of the Company.

4. Price

4.3 The Company reserves the right, by giving written notice to the Customer at any time before delivery, to increase the price of the Products to reflect any increase in the cost to the Company which is due to any factor beyond the control of the Company (such as, without limitation, any foreign exchange fluctuation, currency regulation, alteration of duties, significant increase in the costs of labour, materials or other costs of manufacture, any change in delivery dates, quantities or specifications for the Products which is requested by the Customer, or any delay caused by any instructions of the Customer or failure of the Customer to give the Company adequate information or instructions).

4.4 Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the Customer and the Company, where the Company agrees to deliver the Products (otherwise than at the Company’s Premises) the Customer shall be liable to pay the Company’s charges for delivery of the Products.

 

5. Payment

5.1 If credit card account details are provided by the Customer on the Purchase Order, payment will be charged to the credit/debit card account on written acknowledgement of the Customer’s Purchase Order. By placing a Purchase Order the Customer consents to payment being charged to its crediti/debit card account as provided on the Purchase Order.

5.2 The Customer’s credit/debit card details will be encrypted to minimise the possibility of unauthorised access or disclosure. Authority for payment must be given at the time of placing the Customer’s Purchase Order.

5.3 Where payment is made in accordance with clauses 5.4 and 5.5, the Company will issue the Customer with a receipt.

5.4 Subject to payment being made in accordance with clauses 5.1 to 5.3 above, the Company shall be entitled to invoice the Customer on or at any time after delivery of the Products, unless the Products are to be collected by the Customer or the Customer wrongfully fails to take delivery of the Products, in which event the Company shall be entitled to invoice the Customer for the price at any time after the Company has notified the Customer that the Products are ready for collection or (as the case may be) the Company has tendered delivery of the Products.

5.5 The Price shall be paid by the Customer (including VAT and without any set-off or other deduction) within 30 days of the date of the Company’s invoice.

5.6 If payment is not made on the due date, the Company shall be entitled, without limiting any other rights it may have, to terminate this Agreement and to charge interest on the outstanding amount (both before and after any judgment) at the rate of 6% above the base rate from time to time of Lloyds Bank plc from the due date until the outstanding amount is paid in full.

The Products may be delivered by the Company in advance of the delivery date on giving reasonable notice to the Customer.

6.3 If the Customer fails to take delivery of the Products or fails to give the Company adequate delivery instructions at the time stated for delivery (otherwise than by reason of any cause beyond the Customer’s reasonable control or by reason of the Company’s fault) then, without limiting any other right or remedy available to the Company, the Company may:

6.3.1 store the Products until actual delivery and charge the Customer for the reasonable costs (including insurance) of storage; or

6.3.2 sell the Products at the best price readily obtainable and (after deducting all reasonable storage and selling expenses) account to the Customer for the excess over the price under the Contract or charge the Customer for any shortfall below the price under the Contract.

 

7. Risk and Property

7.1 Risk of damage to or loss of the Products shall pass to the Customer:

7.1.1 in the case of Products to be delivered at the Company’s Premises, at the time when the Company notifies the Customer that the Products are available for collection; or

7.1.2 in the case of Products to be delivered otherwise than at the Company’s Premises, at the time of delivery or, if the Customer wrongfully fails to take delivery of the Products, the time when the Company has tendered delivery of the Products.

7.3 Until such time as the property in the Products passes to the Customer, the Customer shall hold the Products as the Company’s fiduciary agent and bailee, and shall keep the Products separate from those of the Customer and third parties and properly stored, protected and insured and identified as the Company’s property, but the Customer may resell or use the Products in the ordinary course of its business.

7.4 Until such time as the property in the Products passes to the Customer (and provided the Products are still in existence and have not been resold), the Company may at any time require the Customer to deliver up the Products to the Company and, if the Customer fails to do so forthwith, enter on any premises of the Customer or any third party where the Products are stored and repossess the Products.

7.5 The Customer shall not be entitled to pledge, create a lien over or in any way charge by way of security for any indebtedness any of the Products which remain the property of the Company, but if the Customer does so all moneys owing by the Customer to the Company shall (without limiting any other right or remedy of the Company) forthwith become due and payable.

8.4 Where a valid claim in respect of any of the Products which is based on a defect in the quality or condition of the Products or their failure to meet specification is notified to the Company in accordance with these Terms, the Company may replace the Products (or the part in question) free of charge or, at the Company’s sole discretion, refund to the Customer the price of the Products (or a proportionate part of the price), in which case the Company shall have no further liability to the Customer.

8.5 The Customer shall not be entitled to reject the Products if:
