Acceptance

The Customer is taken to have exclusively accepted and is immediately bound, jointly and severally, by these Terms if the Customer places an order for either Goods or Services, irrespective of whether the Goods are delivered or the Services are completed. The Customer is not required to sign a copy of these Terms to confirm acceptance. 

These Terms may only be amended in relation to one specific transaction with the consent of the Company in writing. 

These Terms shall prevail to the extent of any inconsistency with any other document or agreement between the Customer and the Company 

Price and Payment

The Price (which prior to an order being accepted by the Company may be changed without notice at the Company’s sole discretion) shall be the Company’s quoted price (subject to clause 4.1) which will be valid for the period stated in the quotation or otherwise for a period of thirty (30) days.

At the Company’s sole discretion a non-refundable deposit may be required. 

Time for payment for the Goods and Services being of the essence, the Price will be payable by the Customer on the date/s determined by the Company, which may be:

in accordance with the times specified in the Company’s estimate or quote; 

the date specified on any invoice or other form as being the date for payment; or

The time specified for payment on credit as below. 

Where Goods and/or Services are supplied to the customer by the Company on credit the following terms and conditions apply:

The Company is not obliged to offer credit to any Customer, and credit terms will be issued at the sole discretion of the Company. An application is required to be submitted to the Company by the Customer before a Customer will be considered for credit terms. 

Payment in full is due by the 20th of the month following the date of an issue of an invoice, or if stated by the Company, prior to delivery of any Goods. 

Interest will accrue at the rate of 10% per month on all accounts unpaid by the due date.

All goods supplied on credit will remain the property of the Company until payment in full has been made and received subject to the provisions of clauses 8 and 9.

All the costs of collection (including any legal costs) of unpaid accounts are the responsibility of the Customer.

If an application for credit for a Customer has not been approved by the Company, the Customer must pay the Price for the Goods and/or Services as per these Terms and/or any conditions set by the Company and the Customer is not entitled to the payment terms under clause 3.4 of these Terms. 

Payment may be made by cash, electronic/on-line banking, credit card (a surcharge per transaction may apply), or by any other method as agreed by the Company.

The Customer shall not be entitled to set off against, or deduct from the Price, any sums owed or claimed to be owed to the Customer by the Company nor to withhold payment of any invoice because part of that invoice is in dispute.

Unless otherwise stated the Price does not include GST. In addition to the Price, the Customer must pay GST, without deduction or set off of any other amounts, at the same time and on the same basis as the Customer pays the Price. In addition, the Customer must pay any other taxes and duties that may be applicable in addition to the Price except where they are expressly included in the Price.

If the Goods to be delivered and/or installed are part of a blanket order, the agreed prices set forth in the order shall only apply if the quantities delivered and/or installed are in accordance with minimum delivery stipulations set out in the order, or where no minimum delivery and/or instalment stipulations are specified the Company’s standard prices for the quantity delivered or installed as current at the time delivery and /or installation, shall apply.

The Price may include provisional sums which are Goods and/or Services the cost of which are not quantifiable at the date of the placement of an Order for Goods and/or Services and which the Company cannot therefore price accurately as at that date.

In the event that the actual cost in relation to Goods and/or Services, due to an increase to the provisional sums, exceeds that previously provided for in the Price, such increase shall be deemed to be added to the Price and the next payment due under any invoice will be adjusted accordingly. 

Variations

The Company reserves the right to change the Price for the Goods and/or Services without notice:

if a variation to the Goods and/or Services which are to be supplied is requested; or

in the event of unforeseen circumstances occurring which are beyond the Company’s control, including but not limited to variations in:

additional testing of Goods, other than the scheduled compliance testing;

taxes, duties and/or any other levies; and

foreign exchange rates.

Variations will be charged for on the basis of the Company’s quotation, and will be detailed in writing, and shown as variations on the Company’s invoice. Payment for all variations must be made in full at the time of the invoice is issued.

In the event of any variation, the Company may extend the date of delivery by a period of time considered necessary and reasonable in the circumstances.

Any expense incurred by the Company as a consequence of such a variation shall be added to the Price.

Delivery of Goods

Delivery (“Delivery”) of the Goods is taken to occur at the time that the Company’s nominated carrier delivers the Goods to the Customer’s nominated address or the Customer collects the Goods from the Company’s premises..

Unless otherwise expressly included, the cost of Delivery is in addition to the Price.

Any time specified by the Company for Delivery of the Goods is an estimate only and the Company will not be liable for any loss or damage incurred by the Customer as a result of Delivery being late. However, both parties agree that they shall make reasonable endeavours to enable the Goods to be delivered at the time and place as was arranged between both parties. In the event that the Company is unable to supply the Goods as agreed solely due to any action or inaction of the Customer, then the Company shall be entitled to charge a reasonable fee for redelivery, storage, demurrage and/or any other charges resulting from the forgoing action or inaction. Late Delivery shall not constitute a breach of contract by the Company and the Purchaser shall not be entitled to cancel the contract because of late delivery.

The Company takes no responsibility in regard to wrongly delivered Goods, late Delivery or late installation. The Company shall change over at its own cost Goods which have been wrongly delivered. Any delay in Delivery or installation shall not excuse or relieve the Customer from its obligation to pay for the Goods. 

Where a Customer claims Goods delivered do not confirm to any specifications, the Customer must notify the Company in writing with details of non-conformity within 5 working days from the date of Delivery. Such notice of non-conformity does not entitle the Customer to withhold payment of the Price for Goods unless agreed to in writing by the Company. 

Risk

Any risk in relation to any Goods passes to the Customer upon the Goods leaving the Company’s premises or any other location that they are stored on behalf of the Company. The Company accepts no liability for any damage to Goods whilst in transit to the Customer. 

At the Company’s sole discretion, the Company may enter into an arrangement with the Customer regarding insurance of any Goods to be delivered. Should an arrangement be made between the Company and the Customer regarding insurance of the Goods, such an arrangement must be made in writing subject to the following provisions:

If any of the Goods are damaged or destroyed following Delivery but prior to ownership passing to the Customer, the Company is entitled to receive all insurance proceeds payable for the Goods, less any amounts already paid by the Customer. 

The production of these Terms by the Company is sufficient evidence of the Company’s rights to receive the insurance proceeds without the need for any person dealing with the Company to make further enquiries. 

The Company will be entitled to pass on the costs of any insurance policy to the Customer by adding such costs to the Price. 

The Company accepts no responsibility for any damage or performance related problems with any Goods where they have not been handled, used, stored, installed, fitted and/or maintained in accordance with the Company’s and/or the manufacturers’ recommendations.

The Company shall be entitled to rely on the accuracy of any plans, specifications, quantities and/or any other information provided by the Customer in relation to any Goods or Services. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that in the event that any information provided by the Customer is inaccurate, subject to the Company acting reasonably, the Company accepts no responsibility for any loss, damages, or costs however resulting from these inaccurate plans, specifications or other information.

The Customer acknowledges that all descriptive specifications, illustrations, drawings, data dimensions, and weights stated in the Company’s fact sheets, price lists, catalogues, brochures or advertising material are indicative only and that the Customer has not relied on such information.                 

Any advice, recommendation, information, assistance or service provided by the Company in relation to Goods supplied is given in good faith, is based on the Company’s own knowledge and experience and shall be accepted without liability on the part of the Company. The Customer shall be solely responsible for ensuring that the Goods ordered are suitable for their intended use.

Where the Customer has supplied items for the Company to complete the Services, the Customer acknowledges that the Customer accepts responsibility for the suitability of purpose, quality and any faults inherent in the items. The Company shall not be responsible for any defects in the items, any loss or damage (or any part thereof), howsoever arising from the use of items supplied by the Customer.

The Company shall not be responsible for any loss or damage or defect or maintenance if it relates to work performed by the Customer or the Customer’s contractor.

Where delays to installation are a result of the Customer or the Customer’s contractors, the Company shall be entitled to charge the Customer the Company’s reasonable costs as a result of the delay. 

Confidentiality

Subject to clause 7.2, each party agrees to treat as confidential the other party’s Confidential Information, and agree not to divulge it to any third party, without the other party's written consent. 

Both parties agree to:

use the Confidential Information of the other party only to the extent required for the purpose it was provided;

not copy or reproduce any of the Confidential Information of the other party in any way;

only disclose the other party’s Confidential Information to:

employees and third-party providers who need access to the information and who have agreed to keep it confidential;

its legal advisers and insurance providers if those persons undertake to keep such information confidential; and

not disclose the other party’s Confidential Information to any person not referred to in this clause except with the other party’s prior written consent or if required by law, any stock exchange or any regulatory body.

The obligations of this clause 7 shall survive termination or cancellation of these Terms.

The Customer confirms, that the Company is entitled to use the Customer’s information for the purpose of verifying the Customers identity and credit worthiness and this shall not constitute a breach of confidence or privacy.

The Customer gives irrevocable authority to the Company to enter any premises occupied by the Customer or on which Goods are situated at any reasonable time after default by the Customer or prior to default if The Company believes (acting reasonably) a default is likely to remove and repossess any Goods and any other property to which Goods are attached or in which Goods are incorporated.  The Company  shall not be liable for any costs, damages, expenses or losses incurred by the Customer or any third party as a result of this action, nor liable in contract or in tort or otherwise in any way whatsoever unless by statute such liability cannot be excluded.  The Company may either resell any repossessed Goods and credit the Customer’s account with the net proceeds of sale (after deduction of all repossession, storage, selling and other costs) or may retain any of the repossessed Goods and credit the Customer’s account with the invoice value thereof less such sum as The Company reasonably determines on account of wear and tear, depreciation, obsolescence, loss or profit, restocking fees and/or costs.

The Customer is only a bailee of the Goods and must return the Goods to the Company on request.
