Terms of sale

  1. The sale of goods is made subject to the terms below which prevail over any terms proposed by the buyer unless agreed in writing by the seller Lantex Manufacturing Company Ltd. Please read carefully.
  2. Any concession by the seller shall not prevent the seller exercising their full rights under the contract
  3. The seller shall be deemed to have no knowledge of the further treatment, purpose or market for which the goods are required unless stated in writing at the time of ordering. The buyer shall satisfy himself before delivery that it is fit for purpose.
  4. No claim for faulty or goods not considered to have been ordered by the buyer will be considered unless such claim is made within 3 days of delivery and the buyer allows the seller to examine the goods to be considered.
    If the buyer accepts any offer from the seller then the seller will not accept any subsequent liability for that batch or order.
  5. Delivery will be deemed to have taken place when the buyer collects the goods from the sellers premises using the buyers own or contracted transport or the seller delivers to the buyers premises using their own or contracted transport and under the latter circumstances there will be a charge made to the buyer for the cost unless the invoice does not include this charge.
  6. Responsibility for the goods passes to the buyer at the point of delivery. For goods collected ex‑mill, responsibility transfers when the buyer or their appointed carrier takes possession of the goods. For goods delivered by the seller or the seller’s contracted carrier, responsibility transfers when the goods arrive at the buyer’s premises or designated delivery location. Once responsibility has transferred, the seller accepts no liability for loss, damage, or deterioration of the goods. 
  7. Payment shall be pro forma or payable in cash within 30 days of delivery unless otherwise agreed in writing. The seller will usually withhold further deliveries of goods if payment becomes overdue.
  8. Interest may be charged at the discretion of the seller at the rate of 2% per 4 weeks after the initial 30 days time allowance. Payment by credit or debit cards will be subject to a supplementary payment of 5% of the value of the goods, carriage costs and VAT.
  9. Title to the Goods shall not pass to the Buyer until the Seller has received in full (in cash or cleared funds) all sums due to the Seller in respect of: (a) the Goods supplied under this contract; (b) all other sums which are or may become due to the Seller from the Buyer on any account (“All‑Monies Clause”).
  10. Until title passes, the Buyer shall: (a) hold the Goods as the Seller’s fiduciary bailee; (b) store the Goods separately from all other goods in its possession so that they remain readily identifiable as the Seller’s property; (c) not remove, deface or obscure any identifying marks or packaging on the Goods; (d) maintain the Goods in satisfactory condition and keep them insured on the Seller’s behalf for their full price against all usual risks; (e) provide the Seller with a copy of the insurance policy on request.
  11. The Buyer’s right to possession of the Goods shall terminate immediately if: (a) the Buyer becomes insolvent, enters administration, liquidation, receivership or any analogous procedure; (b) the Buyer fails to pay any amount due to the Seller on the due date; or (c) the Seller reasonably believes the Buyer is unable to pay its debts.
  12. Upon termination of the Buyer’s right to possession, the Seller may: (a) enter any premises where the Goods are stored in order to inspect or recover them; (b) recover and resell the Goods; (c) require the Buyer to deliver up all Goods which have not been resold or irrevocably incorporated into another product.
  13. The Buyer grants the Seller, its agents and employees an irrevocable licence to enter any premises where the Goods are or may be stored in order to recover them. This licence shall survive termination of the contract.
  14. If the Buyer processes, mixes or incorporates the Goods with other materials, the Seller shall retain title to the resulting product (“New Goods”).
  15. The Buyer shall store the New Goods separately and hold them as bailee for the Seller.
  16. If the Goods or New Goods are sold before payment is made, the Buyer shall: (a) hold the proceeds of sale on trust for the Seller; (b) keep such proceeds separate from its own funds; (c) account to the Seller immediately upon request.
  17. Risk in the Goods passes to the Buyer on delivery, but title remains with the Seller until payment is received in full.
  18. If any levy, charge, tax duty or tariff be imposed or increased by any government which affects the price of this contract at any time during any relevant period of the contract that amount shall be added to the contract price and paid direct to the seller.
  19. Any credit terms arranged will lapse after 120 days of no trading, then pro forma payment will be expected. Unless specially arranged the buyer will not be offered credit terms if purchases amount to less than £2000 per annum.
  20. The acceptance of this invoice to supply will constitute acceptance of the conditions above.
  21. If the buyer has any doubts as to the terms and conditions, it is the responsibility of the buyer to seek clarification from the seller.
  22. If we have attempted delivery but been unable to do so due to absence 9am – 5pm or wrong phone number being given to us, an attempted delivery fee will be charged. The attempted delivery fee would represent the true cost of a delivery. Please note: the delivery cost noted on an order/invoice does not show the true cost of delivery in the vast majority of cases, it is very likely that the actual cost will be significantly higher than this value.
