      3. Goods

      3.1 The Goods are described in the Supplier's catalogue or website as modified by any applicable Specification.

      3.2 To the extent that the Goods are to be manufactured in accordance with a Specification supplied by the Customer, the Customer shall indemnify the Supplier against all liabilities, costs, expenses, damages and losses (including any direct, indirect or consequential losses, loss of profit, loss of reputation and all interest, penalties and legal and other professional costs and expenses) suffered or incurred by the Supplier in connection with any claim made against the Supplier for actual or alleged infringement of a third party's intellectual property rights arising out of or in connection with the Supplier's use of the Specification. This clause 3.2 shall survive termination of the Contract.

      3.3 The Supplier reserves the right to amend the Specification if required by any applicable statutory or regulatory requirement.

      4. Delivery

      4.1 The Supplier shall ensure that:

      (a) each delivery of the Goods is accompanied by a delivery note that shows the contract number, the type and quantity of the Goods (including the code number of the Goods, where applicable), special storage instructions (if any) and, if the Goods are being delivered by instalments, the outstanding balance of Goods remaining to be delivered; and

      (b) if the Supplier requires the Customer to return any packaging materials to the Supplier, that fact is clearly stated on the delivery note. The Customer shall make any such packaging materials available for collection at such times as the Supplier shall reasonably request. Returns of packaging materials shall be at the Supplier's expense.

      4.2 Delivery charges may be charged at the Supplier’s discretion in addition to the cost of the Goods and shall be detailed in the acknowledgement of Order emailed to the Customer.

      4.3 The Supplier shall deliver the Goods to the location set out in the Order or such other location as the parties may agree (Delivery Location) at any time after the Supplier notifies the Customer that the Goods are ready. It is the Customer’s responsibility to off- load the Goods without undue delay on the date of delivery from the Supplier’s delivery vehicle.

      4.4 Delivery is completed on the completion of unloading of the Goods by the Customer at the Delivery Location. The Customer’s signature on any delivery note, or other documentation shall be evidence that the delivery amount of Goods specified on the delivery note have been delivered in good condition and are undamaged by transit.

      4.5 Any dates quoted for delivery are approximate only, and the time of delivery is not of the essence. The Supplier shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of the Goods that is caused by a Force Majeure Event or the Customer's failure to provide the Supplier with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the Goods or the Supplier is unable to access the Delivery Location.

      4.6 If the Supplier fails to deliver the Goods, its liability shall be limited to the costs and expenses incurred by the Customer in obtaining replacement goods of similar description and quality in the cheapest market available, less the price of the Goods. The Supplier shall have no liability for any failure to deliver the Goods to the extent that such failure is caused by a Force Majeure Event or the Customer's failure to provide the Supplier with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the Goods or the Supplier is unable to access the Delivery Location.

      4.7 If the Customer fails to take delivery of the Goods after the Supplier notifying the Customer that the Goods are ready, then, except where such failure or delay is caused by a Force Majeure Event or the Supplier's failure to comply with its obligations under the Contract in respect of the Goods:

      (a) delivery of the Goods shall be deemed to have been completed at 9.00 am on the third Business Day after the day on which the Supplier notified the Customer that the Goods were ready; and

      (b) the Supplier shall store the Goods until actual delivery takes place, and charge the Customer for all related costs and expenses (including insurance if applicable).

      4.8 If ten Business Days after the day on which the Supplier notified the Customer that the Goods were ready for delivery the Customer has not taken actual delivery of them, the Supplier may resell or otherwise dispose of part or all of the Goods and, after deducting reasonable storage and selling costs, account to the Customer for any excess over the price of the Goods or charge the Customer for any shortfall below the price of the Goods.

      4.9 If the Supplier delivers up to and including 10% more or less than the quantity of Goods ordered the Customer may not reject them, but on receipt of notice from the Customer that the wrong quantity of Goods was delivered, the Supplier shall make a pro rata adjustment to the invoice for the Goods.

      4.10 The Supplier may deliver the Goods by instalments, which shall be invoiced and paid for separately. Each instalment shall constitute a separate contract. Any delay in delivery or defect in an instalment shall not entitle the Customer to cancel any other instalment.

      4.11 The Supplier shall deliver the Goods to the location set out in the Order or such other location as the parties may agree (“Delivery Location”) at any time after the Supplier notifies the Customer that the Goods are ready. The Customer shall be responsible for providing safe, proper, prompt and unhindered access to the Delivery Location to the Supplier at all reasonable times for unloading and shall be liable for any loss or damage, or cost of delay caused by lack thereof. Where the Customer assists with any unloading it shall be responsible for any damage caused to the Goods arising from Customer’s employees acts or omissions.

      5. Quality and Description

      5.1 The Supplier warrants that on delivery, the Goods shall:

      (a) conform in all material respects with their description and any applicable Specification; and

      (b) be free from material defects in design, material and workmanship; and

      (c) be of satisfactory quality (within the meaning of the Sale of Goods Act 1979); and

      (d) be fit for any purpose held out by the Supplier.

      5.2 Subject to clause 5.3, if:

      (a) the Customer gives notice in writing to the Supplier on Delivery that some or all of the Goods do not comply with the warranty set out in clause 5.1 ;

      (b) the Supplier is given a reasonable opportunity of examining such Goods; and

      (c) the Customer (if asked to do so by the Supplier) returns such Goods to the Supplier's place of business at the Supplier's cost, the Supplier shall, at its option, repair or replace the defective Goods, or refund the price of the defective Goods in full.

      5.3 The Supplier shall not be liable for the Goods' failure to comply with the warranty set out in clause 5.1 if:

      (a) the Customer makes any further use of such Goods after giving notice in accordance with clause 5.2;

      (b) the defect arises because the Customer failed to follow the Supplier's oral or written instructions as to the storage, commissioning, installation, use and maintenance of the Goods or (if there are none) good trade practice regarding the same;

      (c) the defect arises as a result of the Supplier following any drawing, design or specification supplied by the Customer;

      (d) the Customer alters or repairs such Goods without the written consent of the Supplier;

      (e) the defect arises as a result of fair wear and tear, wilful damage, negligence, or abnormal storage or working conditions; or

      (f) the Goods differ from their description or the Specification as a result of changes made to ensure they comply with applicable statutory or regulatory requirements.

      5.4 Except as provided in this clause 5, the Supplier shall have no liability to the Customer in respect of the Goods' failure to comply with the warranty set out in clause 5.1 .

      5.5 The terms implied by sections 13 to 15 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 are, to the fullest extent permitted by law, excluded from the Contract.

      5.6 These Conditions shall apply to any repaired or replacement Goods supplied by the Supplier.

      5.7 All illustrations, drawings and other information issued by the Supplier on its website, catalogues, price lists, advertisements or any other publications must be regarded as approximate representations only except where otherwise specified. Weights, dimensions, measurements, capacities and all other particulars of the Goods are stated by the Supplier in good faith as being approximately correct and are given as accurately as circumstances permit but are not taken as conclusive. Defects in quality or dimensions in any delivery shall not entitle the Customer to reject the Goods or cancel any Order.

      5.8 No Goods delivered to the Customer which are in accordance with the Contract will be accepted by the Supplier for return without the prior written approval of the Supplier and at its absolute discretion. If the Supplier agrees to accept any such Goods from the Customer for return, the Customer shall be liable to pay a handling charge of 20% of the invoice price. Such Goods must be returned by the Customer (delivery paid) to the Supplier in their original shipping carton. Goods returned without the prior written approval of the Supplier or otherwise than in accordance with these Conditions may be returned to the Customer or stored at the Customer’s cost without prejudice to any rights or remedies the Customer may have under statute, contract or otherwise.

      6. Title and risk

      6.1 The risk in the Goods shall pass to the Customer on completion of delivery at the Delivery Location.

      6.2 Title to the Goods shall not pass to the Customer until the Supplier receives payment in full (in cash or cleared funds) for the Goods and any other goods that the Supplier has supplied to the Customer in respect of which payment has become due, in which case title to the Goods shall pass at the time of payment of all such sums.

      6.3 Until title to the Goods has passed to the Customer, the Customer shall:

      (a) store the Goods separately from all other goods held by the Customer so that they remain readily identifiable as the Supplier's property;

      (b) not remove, deface or obscure any identifying mark or packaging on or relating to the Goods;

      (c) maintain the Goods in satisfactory condition and keep them insured against all risks for their full price from the date of delivery;

      (d) notify the Supplier immediately if it becomes subject to any of the events listed in clause 9.1(b) to clause 9.1(d) ; and

      (e) give the Supplier such information as the Supplier may reasonably require from time to time relating to:

      (i) the Goods; and

      (ii) the ongoing financial position of the Customer.

      7. Price and payment

      7.1 The price of the Goods shall be the price set out in the Order, or, if no price is quoted, the price set out in the Supplier's published price list in force as at the date of delivery.

      7.2 The Supplier may, by giving notice to the Customer at any time up to 30 Business Days before delivery, increase the price of the Goods to reflect any increase in the cost of the Goods that is due to:

      (a) any factor beyond the Supplier's control (including foreign exchange fluctuations, increases in taxes and duties, and increases in labour, materials and other manufacturing costs);

      (b) any request by the Customer to change the delivery date(s), quantities or types of Goods ordered, or the Specification; or
