2 Basis of the sale
2.1 The Seller shall sell and the Buyer shall purchase the Goods in accordance with the quotation of the Seller, which is to be the sole basis for the Buyer’s order. The Contract is normally made when the Buyer’s order is accepted by the Seller (which will be after the Seller has ensured that its requirements as to payment methods have been satisfied). Orders may be in Writing or verbal (telephone), but if verbal the Seller’s written confirmation of order shall, in the case of dispute, be conclusive evidence of the terms of the verbal order. The Contract may only be made through acceptance by the Buyer of the Seller’s quotation if the Seller so indicates in Writing. In either case the Contract will be subject to these Conditions, which shall govern the Contract to the exclusion of any other terms and conditions subject to which any such order is made or purported to be made, or any such quotation is accepted or purported to be accepted, by the Buyer.
2.2 No variation to these Conditions shall be binding unless agreed in Writing between the authorised representatives of the Buyer and the Seller.
2.3 The Seller’s employees or agents are not authorised to make any representations concerning the Goods unless confirmed by the Seller in Writing. In entering into the Contract the Buyer acknowledges that it does not rely on, and waives any claim for breach of, any such representations which are not so confirmed.
2.4 Any advice or recommendation given by the Seller or its employees or agents to the Buyer or its employees or agents as to the storage, application or use of the Goods which is not confirmed in Writing by the Seller is followed or acted upon entirely at the Buyer’s own risk, and accordingly the Seller 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 Seller shall be subject to correction without any liability on the part of the Seller.

3 Orders and specifications
3.1 No order submitted by the Buyer shall be deemed to be accepted by the Seller unless and until such acceptance is confirmed in Writing by the Seller’s authorised representative or, if earlier, the Goods are shipped by the Seller.
3.2 The Buyer shall be responsible for ensuring the accuracy of the terms of its order (including any applicable specification), and for giving the Seller any necessary information relating to the Goods (including as a minimum the relevant Part Number from the relevant Data Sheet for the Goods) within a sufficient time to enable the Seller to perform the Contract in accordance with its terms.
3.3 The quantity of the Goods shall be that set out in the Seller’s quotation (if accepted by the Buyer) or the Buyer’s order (if accepted by the Seller). The quality and description of and any specification for Goods will be as associated with the relevant Part Number and Data Sheet, or, where there is no Data Sheet, the specification agreed in Writing between the Seller and Buyer.
3.4 If the Goods are to be manufactured or any process is to be applied to the Goods by the Seller in accordance with a specification submitted by the Buyer, the Buyer shall indemnify the Seller against all loss, damages, costs and expenses awarded against or incurred by the Seller in connection with or paid or agreed to be paid by the Seller in settlement of any claim for infringement of any patent, copyright, design, trade mark or other industrial or intellectual property rights of any other person which results from the Seller’s use of the Buyer’s specification.
3.5 The Seller reserves the right to make any changes in the specification of the Goods which are required to conform with any applicable statutory or European Union requirements or, where the Goods are to be supplied to the Seller’s specification, which do not materially affect their quality or performance.
3.6 No order which has been accepted by the Seller may be cancelled by the Buyer except with the agreement in Writing of the Seller and on terms that the Buyer shall indemnify the Seller in full against all loss (including loss of profit), costs (including the cost of all labour and materials used), damages, charges and expenses incurred by the Seller as a result of cancellation.

4 Price of the goods
4.1 The price of the Goods shall (subject to 4.2) be the Seller’s quoted price or, where no price has been quoted (or a quoted price is no longer valid), the price last notified by the Seller to the Buyer before the Contract is made, or if none, the price in the Buyer’s order. All prices in quotations are valid for 30 days only or until earlier acceptance by the Buyer, after which time they may be altered by the Seller without giving notice to the Buyer.
4.2 The Seller reserves the right, by giving notice to the Buyer at any time before delivery, to increase the price of the Goods to reflect any increase in the cost to the Seller which is due to any change in delivery dates, quantities or specifications for the Goods requested by the Buyer, or any delay caused by any instructions of the Buyer or failure of the Buyer to give the Seller adequate information or instructions.
4.3 Except as otherwise stated under the terms of any quotation or in any price list of the Seller, and unless otherwise agreed in Writing between the Buyer and the Seller, all prices are given by the Seller “ex works”, and where the Seller agrees to deliver the Goods otherwise than at the Seller’s premises, the Buyer shall pay the Seller’s charges for transport, packaging and insurance.
4.4 The price is exclusive of any applicable value added tax, which the Buyer shall be additionally liable to pay to the Seller.
4.5 The cost of pallets and returnable containers will be charged to the Buyer in addition to the price of the Goods, but full credit will be given to the Buyer provided they are returned undamaged to the Seller before the due payment date.

5 Terms of payment
5.1 For Buyers paying in advance or by credit card, invoices will be issued and receipted at the time of payment.
5.2 For Buyers whose credit has been approved by the Seller, subject to any special terms agreed in Writing between the Buyer and the Seller, the Seller shall be entitled to invoice the Buyer for the price of the Goods at any time after the Contract is made (as referred to in para 2 above).
5.3 The Buyer shall pay the price of the Goods without any deduction or set off within 30 days of the date of the Seller’s invoice, and the Seller shall be entitled to recover the price, notwithstanding that delivery may not have taken place and the property in the Goods has not passed to the Buyer. The time of payment of the price shall be of the essence of the Contract.
5.4 If the Buyer fails to make any payment on the due date then, without prejudice to any other right or remedy available to the Seller, the Seller shall be entitled to do all or any of the following:
5.4.1 cancel the contract or suspend any further orders, contracts or deliveries to the Buyer;
5.4.2 appropriate any payment made by the Buyer to such of the Goods (or the goods supplied under any other contract between the Buyer and the Seller) as the Seller may think fit (notwithstanding any purported appropriation by the Buyer); and
5.4.3 charge the Buyer interest (both before and after any judgment) on the amount unpaid, at the rate of 4% p.a above Lloyds Bank base rate from time to time, until payment in full is made.

6 Delivery
6.1 Delivery of the Goods shall be made by the Buyer collecting the Goods at the Seller’s premises at any time after the Seller has notified the Buyer that the Goods are ready for collection. The Seller is normally willing to arrange transport on behalf of the Buyer to the Delivery Address, but notwithstanding that arrangements are made by the Seller delivery shall be made by the Seller handing the Goods to the carrier. All risks of damage or loss to the Goods during transit and all risks of delay in transit shall be the Buyer’s. The cost of the carrier is to be reimbursed to the Seller by the Buyer. The Seller shall be under no obligation to give notice under section 32(3) of the Sale of Goods Act 1979.
6.2 Any dates quoted for delivery of the Goods are approximate only and the Seller shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of the Goods howsoever caused. Time for delivery shall not be of the essence unless previously agreed by the Seller in Writing. The Goods may be delivered by the Seller in advance of the quoted delivery date upon giving reasonable notice to the Buyer.
6.3 Where the Goods are to be delivered in instalments, each delivery shall constitute a separate contract and failure by the Seller to deliver any one or more of the instalments in accordance with these Conditions or any claim by the Buyer in respect of any one or more instalments shall not entitle the Buyer to treat the Contract as a whole as repudiated.
6.4 If the Seller fails to deliver the Goods for any reason other than any cause beyond the Seller’s reasonable control or the Buyer’s fault, and the Seller is accordingly liable to the Buyer, the Seller’s liability shall be limited to the excess (if any) of the cost to the Buyer (in the cheapest available market) of similar goods to replace those not delivered over the price of the Goods.
6.5 If the Buyer fails to take delivery of the Goods or fails to give the Seller adequate delivery instructions at the time stated for delivery (otherwise than by reason of any cause beyond the Buyer’s reasonable control or by reason of the Seller’s fault) then, without prejudice to any other right or remedy available to the Seller, the Seller may:
6.5.1 store the Goods until actual delivery and charge the Buyer for the reasonable costs (including insurance) of storage; or
6.5.2 sell the Goods at the best price readily obtainable and (after deducting all reasonable storage and selling expenses) account to the Buyer for the excess over the price under the Contract or charge the Buyer for any shortfall below the price under the Contract.

7 Risk and property
7.1 Risk of damage to or loss of the Goods shall pass to the Buyer:
7.1.1 in the case of Goods to be delivered by the Buyer collecting the Goods at the Seller’s premises, at the time when the Seller notifies the Buyer that the Goods are available for collection;

7.3 Until such time as the property in the Goods passes to the Buyer, the Buyer shall hold the Goods as the Seller’s fiduciary agent and bailee, and shall keep the Goods separate from those of the Buyer and third parties and properly stored, protected and insured and identified as the Seller’s property.
7.4 Until such time as the property in the Goods passes to the Buyer (and provided the Goods are still in existence and have not been resold), the Seller shall be entitled at any time to require the Buyer to deliver up the Goods to the Seller and, if the Buyer fails to do so forthwith, to enter upon any premises of the Buyer or any third party where the Goods are stored and repossess the Goods.

8 Warranties and liability
8.1 Subject to the conditions set out below the Seller warrants that Goods manufactured by the Seller will be free from defects in material and workmanship for the period referred to in the relevant Data Sheet, or if no period is specified, the period of 12 months from the date of their initial use.
8.2 The above warranty in para 8.1 does not extend to Goods or parts, materials or equipment which are not manufactured by the Seller. For these the Buyer shall only be entitled to the benefit of any such warranty or guarantee as is given by the manufacturer to the Seller. The Seller warrants that it will use all reasonable efforts to procure for the Buyer the benefit of the manufacturer’s warranty.

8.6 Any claim by the Buyer which is based on any defect in the quality or condition of the Goods or their failure to correspond with specification or any shortage shall (whether or not delivery is refused by the Buyer) be notified to the Seller within 7 days from the date of arrival of Goods at the Delivery Address or (where the defect or failure was not apparent on reasonable inspection) within a reasonable time after discovery of the defect or failure. If the Buyer does not so notify the Seller, the Buyer shall not be entitled to reject the Goods and the Seller shall have no liability for such defect or failure, and the Buyer shall be bound to pay the price as if the Goods had been delivered in accordance with the Contract.
8.7 Where any valid claim based on any defect in the quality or condition of any of the Goods (or any part), or their failure to meet specification, is notified to the Seller in accordance with these Conditions, the remedy of the Buyer will be to require the Seller to replace or repair the defective Goods or part free of charge or, at the Seller’s sole discretion, refund to the Buyer the price of such defective Goods or part (subject to the processing charge provided for in this clause 12.) . Where replacement or repaired goods are provided by the Seller, the Seller shall be under no liability to reimburse to the Buyer any costs incurred by the Buyer in removing the defective item, fitting the replacement item and conducting any necessary testing.

The Buyer is advised to effect insurance cover accordingly.
8.9 The remedy stated in para 8.7 states the Seller’s entire liability, except in respect of death or personal injury caused by the Seller’s negligence, and except as expressly provided in these Conditions, in respect of Goods which are defective or fail to correspond to specification and for shortages, and the Seller shall not be liable for any loss, damage, injury, cost or expense of any kind, whatever and however caused, arising directly or indirectly from any such cause, including (without limitation) loss of profits, of production or of anticipated savings or any consequential loss or damage whatsoever (and whether any of the above are caused by the negligence of the Seller, its employees or agents or otherwise). The Buyer is advised to effect insurance cover accordingly.
8.10 In the event of a product recall being necessary, the Buyer will co-operate with the reasonable requirements of the manufacturer of the Goods in accordance with best practice for product safety.
