We do not accept responsibility in respect of any orders other than those issued or confirmed on our official printed form, duly signed.

The vendors shall indemnify the buyers against all claims for royalties, damages or other losses due to the use of patented apparatus, devices or processes embodied therein, in connection with this order.

All drawings, designs and specifications and the copyrights shall be and remain the buyers property. Such drawings, designs and specifications shall be used by the vendor only for the purpose of fulfilling the buyer’s order and for no other purpose whatsoever and shall be returned intact to the buyer on demand. The vendor undertakes to manufacture and sell direct to the buyer, and to no other person, firm or company any parts manufactured to the buyer’s drawings and designs and to refer to the buyer any enquiries received for replacement of such parts.

This order is personal to the vendor to whom it is addressed and may not be assigned or sub-contracted to any other party without the Company’s prior written consent.

The buyers reserve the right to cancel this order without redress, if not executed within a reasonable time or within the time specified. Should any reason arise during the period of delivery rendering it likely that delivery will not be made within the contracted period then the vendor must inform us without delay.

All goods or materials supplied are subject to our inspection and approval. Rejected goods or materials shall be held and returned at the vendors risk and expense.

The buyers reserve the right to inspect any goods or materials before despatch from the vendors premises, but such inspection shall not relieve the vendor from responsibility, liability and/or such guarantees as may be arranged, nor interpreted so as in any way to imply acceptance of such goods or materials.

All modifications to these Conditions of Purchase must in all cases be provided with our formal written assent without which they are in no way binding upon us.
