2. BASIS OF CONTRACT

2.1 These Conditions apply to the Contract to the exclusion of any other terms that the Customer seeks to impose or incorporate, or which are implied by law, trade custom, practice or course of dealing.

2.2 The Order constitutes an offer by the Customer to purchase the Goods in accordance 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.

2.3 The Order shall only be deemed to be accepted when Ntinga Limited issues a written acceptance of the Order, at which point the Contract shall come into existence.

2.5 Any samples, drawings, descriptive matter or advertising produced by Ntinga Limited and any descriptions or illustrations contained in Ntinga Limited’s catalogues or brochures are produced for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Goods referred to in them. They shall not form part of the Contract nor have any contractual force.

2.6 A quotation for the Goods given by Ntinga Limited shall not constitute an offer. A quotation shall only be valid for a period of 14 Business Days from its date of issue.

 


3. GOODS

3.1 The Goods are described in Ntinga Limited's catalogue and the Specification.

3.2 Ntinga Limited reserves the right to amend the Specification if required by any applicable statutory or regulatory requirement, and Ntinga Limited shall notify the Customer in any such event.

 

 

4. DELIVERY

4.1 Ntinga Limited shall ensure that:
(a) each delivery of the Goods is accompanied by a delivery note that shows the date of the Order, the relevant Customer and Supplier reference numbers, 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 Ntinga Limited requires the Customer to return any packaging materials to Ntinga Limited, that fact is clearly stated on the delivery note. The Customer shall make any such packaging materials available for collection at such times as Ntinga Limited shall reasonably request. Returns of packaging materials shall be at Ntinga Limited’s expense.

4.2 Ntinga Limited 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 Ntinga Limited notifies the Customer that the Goods are ready.

4.3 Delivery is completed on the completion of unloading of the Goods at the Delivery Location.

4.4 Any dates quoted for delivery are approximate only, and the time of delivery is not of the essence. Ntinga Limited 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 Ntinga Limited with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the Goods.

4.5 If Ntinga Limited 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. Ntinga Limited 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 Ntinga Limited with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the Goods.

4.6 If the Customer fails to accept delivery of the Goods within fourteen Business Days of Ntinga Limited notifying the Customer that the Goods are ready, then, except where such failure or delay is caused by a Force Majeure Event or Ntinga Limited'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 Ntinga Limited on the fourteenth Business Day after the day on which Ntinga Limited notified the Customer that the Goods were ready; and
(b) Ntinga Limited shall store the Goods until actual delivery takes place and charge the Customer for all related costs and expenses (including insurance).

4.7 Ntinga Limited 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.

 

 

5. QUALITY

5.1 Ntinga Limited warrants that on delivery, and for a period of six months from the date of delivery (Warranty Period), the Goods shall:
(a) conform in all material respects with the Specification; and
(b) be free from material defects in design, material and workmanship.

5.2 Subject to clause 5.3, if:
(a) the Customer gives notice in writing to Ntinga Limited during the Warranty Period within a reasonable time of discovery that some or all of the Goods do not comply with the warranty set out in clause 5.1;
(b) Ntinga Limited is given a reasonable opportunity of examining such Goods; and

(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 Ntinga Limited'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 Ntinga Limited following any drawing, design or specification supplied by the Customer;
(d) the Customer alters or repairs such Goods without the written consent of Ntinga Limited;
(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 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, Ntinga Limited 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.

6. TITLE AND RISK


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


6.2 Title to the Goods shall not pass to the Customer until the earlier of:
(a) Ntinga Limited receives payment in full (in cash or cleared funds) for the Goods and any other goods that Ntinga Limited has supplied to the Customer, in which case title to the Goods shall pass at the time of payment of all such sums; and
(b) the Customer resells the Goods, in which case title to the Goods shall pass to the Customer at the time specified in clause 6.4.

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 Ntinga Limited'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;

(e) give Ntinga Limited such information as Ntinga Limited may reasonably require from time to time relating to:
(i) the Goods; and
(ii) the ongoing financial position of the Customer.

6.4 Subject to clause 6.5, the Customer may resell or use the Goods in the ordinary course of its business (but not otherwise) before Ntinga Limited receives payment for the Goods. However, if the Customer resells the Goods before that time:
(a) it does so as principal and not as Ntinga Limited’s agent; and
(b) title to the Goods shall pass from Ntinga Limited to the Customer immediately before the time at which resale by the Customer occurs.


6.5 At any time before title to the Goods passes to the Customer, Ntinga Limited may:
(a) by notice in writing, terminate the Customer's right under clause 6.4 to resell the Goods or use them in the ordinary course of its business; and
(b) require the Customer to deliver up all Goods in its possession that have not been resold, or irrevocably incorporated into another product and if the Customer fails to do so promptly, enter any premises of the Customer or of any third party where the Goods are stored in order to recover them.


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 Ntinga Limited’s published price list in force as at the date of delivery.

7.2 Ntinga Limited may, by giving notice to the Customer at any time up to 90 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 Ntinga Limited’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
(c) any delay caused by any instructions of the Customer or failure of the Customer to give Ntinga Limited adequate or accurate information or instructions.

7.3 The price of the Goods:
(a) excludes amounts in respect of value added tax (VAT), which the Customer
shall additionally be liable to pay to Ntinga Limited at the prevailing rate,
subject to the receipt of a valid VAT invoice; and
(b) excludes the costs and charges of packaging, insurance and transport of the
Goods, which shall be invoiced to the Customer.

7.4 Ntinga Limited may invoice the Customer for the Goods on or at any time after the completion of delivery.

7.5 The Customer shall pay each invoice submitted by Ntinga Limited:
(a) within 30 calendar days of the date of the invoice or in accordance with any credit terms agreed by Ntinga Limited and confirmed in writing to the
Customer; and
(b) in full and in cleared funds to a bank account nominated in writing by Ntinga
Limited, and
(c) time for payment shall be of the essence of the Contract.

7.6 If the Customer fails to make a payment due to Ntinga Limited under the Contract by the due date, then, without limiting Ntinga Limited’s remedies under clause 9, the Customer shall pay interest on the overdue sum from the due date until payment of the overdue sum, whether before or after judgment. Interest under this clause 7.6 will accrue each day at 4% a year above the Bank of England's base rate from time to time, but at 4% a year for any period when that base rate is below 0%.

7.7 All amounts due under the Contract shall be paid in full without any set-off,
counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).

7.8 From time to time we may agree a framework agreement ("Framework Agreement") with a specific organisation or group under which we will make available certain discounts on the price of Goods to some or all the members of such organisation or group (with each such organisation or group being referred to as a "Buying Group"). However, where you are a member of any such Buying Group and you purchase Goods directly from us in your own name and not as a member of such Buying Group, then the provisions of this Contract shall prevail over the provisions of any such Framework Agreement.
