2 GENERAL

2.1 These Terms and Conditions shall apply to all contracts for the supply of goods by the Supplier to the Customer.

2.2 Before the supply of goods, the Supplier shall submit to the Customer a Specification which shall specify the goods to be supplied and the price payable. The Customer shall notify the Supplier immediately if the Customer does not agree with the contents of the Specification. All Specifications shall be subject to these Terms and Conditions.

3.2 Invoiced amounts shall be due and payable within 30 days of the date of invoice. The Supplier shall be entitled to charge interest on overdue invoices from the date when payment becomes due from day to day until the date of payment at a rate of ten percent per annum above the base rate of the Bank of England. In the event that the Customer’s procedures require that an invoice be submitted against a purchase order prior to payment, the Customer shall be responsible for issuing such purchase order before the goods and services are supplied.

3.3 The granting of credit terms is at the sole discretion of the Supplier.

3.4 All prices quoted by the Supplier are exclusive of VAT which will be applied at the prevailing rate in accordance with applicable regulations.

3.5 The Supplier may amend any quoted price due to changes in market prices at the date of supply. The Supplier shall give the Customer written notice of its intention to vary prices in accordance with this Clause 3.5 and such amendment shall reflect the increased cost of labour, materials or transportation.

3.6 The Supplier may amend a quoted price that is found to be incorrect; the Supplier shall give the Customer written notice if any such error is found to have occurred and will be under no obligation to supply goods at the incorrect price.

3.7 The Supplier may vary any prices offered at any time without notice. Subject to the provisions of Clause 3.5 and 3.6, the Supplier will only be obliged to honour the original price for orders made before the price increase that are scheduled to be delivered within 30 days of the increase.

4 SPECIFICATION OF THE GOODS

4.1All goods shall be required only to conform to the specification in the Specification. For the avoidance of doubt no description, specification or illustration contained in any product pamphlet, website or other sales or marketing literature of the Supplier and no representation written or oral, correspondence or statement shall form part of the contract.

4.2 All goods shall only be suitable for a particular purpose insofar as this is detailed in the Specification or within the Supplier’s recommendations for use of the goods.

5.2 All risk in the goods shall pass to the Customer upon delivery.

5.3 The Customer shall provide full details of their requirements with respect to delivery and the Supplier shall have no liability to the Customer in respect of failed delivery due to the insufficiency of the information provided.

5.6 It is the Customer’s responsibility to accept delivery of the goods, either at the advised delivery location or at an agreed alternative location. The Customer is liable to pay any return load and re-delivery charges incurred by the Supplier due to its failure to comply with this Clause 5.6.

5.7 If the Customer fails to accept delivery in accordance with Clause 5.6, the goods will normally be returned to the Supplier’s depot and the Supplier shall endeavour to arrange revised delivery details. Goods will only be left on site if prior agreement is made and this is conditional upon the Customer accepting all risk in the left goods; this provision shall be a condition precedent on leaving goods and the Customer’s acceptance of this Clause 5.7 is deemed to have been made.

5.8 The Customer is responsible for unloading any bulky goods and any waiting time incurred by the haulier due to delay in unloading goods or accepting delivery may be charged by the Supplier. The charge for waiting time shall be £50.00 per hour or part thereof and shall apply once the haulier has been on site for 30 minutes.

5.9 The Customer is responsible for signing for the acceptance of goods and this is a condition precedent on delivery. The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the delivery is correct in quantity and undamaged prior to signing for the delivery. The Supplier shall have no liability to the Customer and shall have no obligation to provide a refund if the goods are not properly checked by the Customer prior to signing for them.

5.10 The Supplier reserves the right to charge geographical surcharges for delivery to remote locations.

5.11 Large and bulky deliveries may be made on a pallet as necessary and disposal of any such pallet is the responsibility of the Customer. The delivery driver is not responsible for taking away any pallets or other packaging.

5.12 Deliveries are made by a separate delivery company and any damage caused by the haulier or their vehicles will be dealt with directly between the Customer and the haulier.
