All previous terms and conditions of sale are hereby cancelled and all orders accepted by the Company shall be subject to the following:


1) General:

Unless agreed to in writing otherwise, issuance of the Buyer’s purchase order or otherwise acceptance of the Quotation, signing a delivery slip or Invoice shall constitute

acceptance of the terms and conditions contained herein. The Company contracts upon such additional terms and conditions as are agreed between the Company and the Buyer

and the Terms & Conditions of Sale alone. No conditions or terms of the Buyer shall apply to this Contract. No variation of any of these Terms & Conditions of Sale shall be

effective unless in writing and signed by a Director of the Company. If the Buyer’s order attempts to exclude any part of these Conditions, such exclusion shall be ineffective

unless expressly agreed to as aforesaid. No omission by the Company to enforce any Condition hereunder shall operate as a general waiver thereof nor prejudice the Company

in the future enforcement of any Condition, whether original or recurring. In the event that any of these Terms and Conditions hereunder may be deemed invalid, illegal or

otherwise unenforceable, this shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining Terms and Conditions.


2) Delivery:

Offers for delivery from stock are made subject to the Goods remaining unsold on receipt of order. Orders are accepted and forecasts for delivery are given conditionally on the

Company being able to secure the necessary labour and materials, and without liability for delays arising through risks and uncertainties of manufacture, delays for non-delivery

by suppliers, freight forwarders, shippers, customs brokers, strikes, accidents, restrictions imposed by the Government, acts of war or any other causes beyond the Company’s

control. Where the Contract provides for delivery by instalments, each instalment shall constitute a separate contract and any failure or defect in any one or more instalments

delivered shall not entitle the Buyer to repudiate the Contract nor to cancel any subsequent instalments. Under no circumstances whatsoever shall the Company be considered

liable for Consequential, Liquidated or other third party damages arising from manufacturers’ product changes, defects, late or non-delivery, or any other matter however caused.

The Company’s liability in any instance shall be limited to refund of any monies paid to it by the Buyer.


3) Cancellations:

The Company reserves the right to refuse cancellations or alteration of specifications. These cannot be accepted in the case of goods ready for despatch or in the process of

manufacture. In any event, cancellations shall incur varying penalties as determined by the Company considering the timing of receipt by the Company of written notice from the

Buyer requesting changes to, or cancellation of the Contract and such penalties shall constitute, but not be limited to, the forfeiture of any part of an advance payment made by

the Buyer under the Contract.
