with these Conditions. The Customer is responsible

for ensuring that the terms of the Order and any

applicable Specification submitted by the Customer

are complete and accurate.

and no claim will be accepted by the Supplier arising

from or in connection with late delivery. Further, the

under the Contract:

 

(a)     delivery of the Goods/performance of the

Services shall be deemed to have been       completed at 9.00 am on the third Business Day

delivery/services ready to be performed and the

Supplier will be entitled to invoice accordingly;

 

(b)     the Supplier shall store the Goods until any

actual delivery takes place, and charge the

Customer for all related losses, costs and

Supplier until they have been installed or up to 30

days from the date of delivery whichever shall be the

sooner.

6.3 Title to the Goods shall not pass to the Customer

until the Supplier has received payment in full (in

cash or cleared funds) for;

 

  • The Goods; and

 

  • any other goods or Services that the Supplier

has supplied to the Customer in respect of

which payment has become due

.

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

readily identifiable as the Supplier’s property;

mark or packaging on or relating to the Goods;

Customer to deliver up the Goods and, if the

Customer fails to do so promptly, enter any premises

of the Customer (the Customer hereby irrevocably

grants to the Supplier a licence for that purpose) or

of any third party where the Goods are stored in

order to recover them.

howsoever) so as not to structurally damage the

fabric of the building in which they re installed/stored they will be deemed to be easily removable, in their original state and not incorporated into the fabric of such said building.

 

6.7 The provisions of Title & Risk shall survive the

termination of the Contract for whatever reason and

in particular, but without limitation, termination of

the Contract by the Supplier by the acceptance of any repudiation of the Contract by the Customer.

 

6.8 The Supplier shall be entitled to exercise a general lien or right of retention on all Goods or any parts thereof in the Supplier’s possession which are the Customer’s property (or which are supplied to the

Supplier by the Customer) for any sums whatsoever

due to the Supplier and pursuant to such lien or right

the Supplier shall be entitled, without notice to the

Customer, to sell all or any part of such Goods/property privately or by auction or otherwise

and to keep the proceeds of sale in diminution of
