    • These Conditions supersede all prior representations or arrangements and contain the entire agreement between the parties in connection with the Products. All other terms and conditions, express or implied, are excluded. None of Seller’s employees or agents has authority to modify or supplement these Conditions.

  2. Order Process

    • A Quote is valid for the duration noted on it and is subject to these Conditions.
    • Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Seller, a legally binding contract between Buyer and Seller shall come into existence only if Seller receives the full fee or the first instalment of the fee as indicated on the Quote while the Quote remains valid. THE CONTRACT CANNOT BE CANCELLED BY BUYER AND NO REFUND CAN BE CLAIMED AFTER PAYMENT HAS BEEN RECEIVED.
    • Once a Contract is in existence, at Buyer’s request, Seller may prepare Fabrication Drawings based on information or drawings from Buyer or Buyer’s Agent. Alternatively, Buyer may provide its own Fabrication Drawings. Seller has no duty to accept Buyer’s Fabrication Drawings.
    • It is Buyer’s responsibility to check the Fabrication Drawing carefully and notify Seller of any changes required. Once the Buyer confirms the Fabrication Drawing, Buyer assumes all responsibility for the Fabrication Drawings, including that the Fabrication Drawing meet Buyer’s requirements and is suitable for the Buyer’s intended needs. Buyer acknowledges that Seller relies on the Fabrication Drawing in manufacturing the Products.
    • Buyer understands that the Products are manufactured to order, and accordingly, the Contract may not be cancelled by the Buyer once the full fee, or the first instalment of the fee, as the case may be, has been received.

  3. Description

    • The specification for the Products shall be as set out in the Quote and Fabrication Drawing.
    • All samples, descriptive matter and advertising issued by Seller and any descriptions or illustrations contained in Seller’s catalogues or brochures are issued or published for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Products described in them.

  4. Price

    • Prices are exclusive of VAT. All sums due to Seller shall be paid to the address/account in accordance with the timetable stated on the Quote.
    • Seller shall be under no obligation to deliver and/or unload the Products unless and until payment of the total price has been received in full and cleared funds, or where alternative arrangements have been agreed for credit accounts.
    • We may at any time after the acceptance of an order, but prior to delivery, revise the price payable for the goods and/or services to take account of increases in costs including, without limitation, costs of any goods or materials, carriage, labour or overheads, the increase or imposition of any tax duty or other levy.

    • Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the nature of the Products means that injury to person and damage to property is a risk whether the Products are collected or delivered. If Products are collected, Seller has no responsibility to assist Buyer with loading the Products onto Buyer’s designated vehicle and so if Buyer requests Seller to do so, Seller shall not be liable for any loss of or damage to property or vehicles sustained as a result. In addition, Buyer shall be liable for all damage to Seller’s property as a result of its collection of the Products. If Products are delivered, Buyer may request Seller to assist with unloading, and Seller shall comply with all instructions of Buyer and not attempt to unload the Products itself except in accordance with Seller’s instructions.

  6. Defective Products
