BUYER'S REQUIREMENTS
Material and equipment included in this quotation are based on the Seller's interpretation of the Buyer's requirements which are subject to verification by Buyer or his representative. Seller shall not be liable for materials or equipment not conforming to the Buyer's requirements or additional costs if such are due to the fact that the information submitted to the Seller by Buyer did not correspond to the actual circumstances or was incomplete.

WARRANTIES

UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED IN WRITING BY A DULY AUTHORISED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE SELLER, PRODUCTS SOLD HEREUNDER ARE NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN OR IN CONNECTION WITH A NUCLEAR FACILITY OR ACTIVITY.

In addition, claims for shortages, other than loss in transit, must be made in writing not more than five(5) days after receipt of shipment.

WAIVER
Unless otherwise specifically stated herein the failure of Seller and Buyer to insist upon the performance of any of the terms and conditions of this contract or to exercise any right hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such terms, conditions or rights in the future, nor shall it be deemed to be a waiver of any other term, condition, or right under this contract.

MODIFICATION OF CONTRACT
No terms and conditions other than those stated herein, and no agreement or understanding, oral or written, in any way purporting to modify these terms and conditions, whether contained in Buyer's purchase or shipping release forms or elsewhere, shall be binding on the Seller hereinafter unless made in writing and signed by its authorised representative.

Seller will, when specifically requested and upon full compensation for all expenses incurred, including storage, demurrage, handling charges and brokerage, undertake to arrange for the Buyer's account, for ocean or air shipment, insurance, shipping declarations, etc.

RETENTION OF TITLE
Whilst risk in the materials or equipment shall pass as soon as they have left the Seller's warehouse, title shall remain with the Seller until Seller has received payment in full for all goods supplied to Buyer.

In the event of payment not being made in time in accordance with these terms and conditions, the Seller is entitled without giving notice of default and without the intervention of a court of law immediately to repossess the goods which are the Seller's property and to enter the buildings and/or sites where the goods are situated.

DOCUMENTATION/SPECIFICATION

  • Mention of a product in any catalogue or price list does not necessarily imply that the product is available for sale and the Seller reserves the right at all times to discontinue the sale of any product.
  • Unless otherwise specifically stated, specification of the products shall be the Seller's standard specification for the country concerned in force at the time of the order. The Seller reserves the right to make any alterations in the specifications or design of any product. It also reserves the right to deliver products meeting the altered specification or design in fulfillment of any order for products of a previous specification or design, provided the altered products are not materially different from and are designed for the same purpose as the ordered products.

INSURANCE OF SHIPMENTS

  • For all Ex- Warehouse Shipments (Ex-Jebel Ali/Ex-Dubai/Ex-Riyadh etc.) - the risk in the goods passes to the Buyer on handing over the goods by the Seller or his agent to the Buyer or his appointed agent. Insurance coverage will be the responsibility of the Buyer. This is also true in cases where the Seller at the request of the Buyer agrees to transport the goods to the Customer's Destination. In such cases the Buyer is responsible for Insuring the goods.
  • For C&F Shipments – the risk in the goods passes to the Buyer on handing over the goods by the Seller or his agent to the Buyer or his appointed agent. The insurance coverage will be the responsibility of the Buyer.
  • For CIF Shipments - the risk in the goods passes to the Buyer once the goods are cleared by the Buyer. In such cases the Seller’s responsibility for shortages/damages/missing items ceases once the Buyer signs for clean receipt of the goods. Seller will not accept any responsibility unless the shortages/damages/missing items have been endorsed in the way bill by the delivery agent and informed to the Seller within 3 working days.
