Terms and Conditions

In view of the current economic situation the Seller specifically refers the Buyer to clauses 2 & 7.

  1. In these conditions unless the context requires otherwise:
      1.1. ‘Buyer’ means the person who buys or agrees to buy the goods from the Seller.
      1.2. ‘Condition’ means the terms and conditions of sale set out in this document and any special terms and conditions agreed in writing by the seller.
      1.3. ‘Goods’ means the articles which the buyer agrees to buy from the Seller.
      1.4. ‘Price’ means the price for the Goods excluding carriage, packaging, insurance and VAT
      1.5. ‘Seller’ means Envico Engineering Limited.

  2. Price estimates given by the Seller are not offers capable of acceptance by the Buyer. All orders for goods shall be deemed to be an offer by the Buyer to purchase the Goods pursuant to these Conditions. There shall be no binding contract until there has been written acceptance of the Buyer’s order by the Seller and the Goods have been manufactured and/or dispatched by the Seller to the Buyer. Such order shall only take effect on the basis that these Conditions are accepted by the Buyer and shall override any terms or conditions stipulated, incorporated or referred to by the Buyer in the order or in any pre contract negotiations.

  3. The Price shall be the Seller’s quoted price and is exclusive of VAT which shall be at the rate ruling on the date of the Seller’s invoice. The Price includes the sum payable for drawings. The original drawing to be produced is Revision A and the Price includes drawings up to Revision C. In the event that the scheme is redesigned or changed beyond Revision C due to changes introduced by any party other than the Seller, additional costs may be incurred depending on the size of the project and the nature of the changes.

  4. Delivery and installation prices are based on delivery during normal working hours of 0800 to 1800 Monday to Friday. Deliveries outside these periods will be available at additional cost, which can be advised upon request. All deliveries include a 2-hour waiting time free of charge, subsequent hours are charged at £72.00 per hour. Once a site installation date is agreed should this be cancelled within 7 working days of the agreed installation date additional charges may be incurred to cover plant and labour. Please also be aware site work is planned 3 weeks ahead so any cancelled installation will be made on the next available date.

  5. Payment terms shall be agreed with the Seller, subject to satisfactory credit rating. If payment terms are not expressly agreed, payment shall be due not later than 30 days from the date of the Invoice. Non-payment on or before the due date (time being of the essence) shall entitle the Seller, without prejudice to any other rights to:
      5.1. Suspend any further deliveries of goods whether under this contract or any other.
      5.2. To require payment immediately of all unpaid invoices whether in respect of deliveries under this contract or any other.
      5.3. To repossess the products (the Buyer granting the Seller all necessary access).
      The Buyer shall not be entitled to delay or withhold payment of the price or any part thereof on the grounds that it has a claim or set-off against the Seller.
      The Seller is authorised to use funds received from the Customer to settle the Customer’s invoices which are overdue for payment.

  6. If payment is not made on or before the due date, the Seller will exercise its statutory right to claim interest and compensation for debt recovery costs under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 and the Late Payment of Commercial Debts Regulations 2003 or under such equivalent legislation.

  7. Each delivery shall be considered a separate transaction and the failure of any one delivery shall not affect the due performance of the contract. All delivery dates, whether agreed in writing or otherwise, are estimates only and, while the Seller will endeavour to comply with any such date, time is not of the essence and the Seller shall not be responsible for any late delivery. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the Seller shall not be liable for late delivery or failure to deliver through any cause which is beyond the control of the Seller.
    If the Buyer is unwilling or unable to accept the delivery on the date when it falls due the Seller shall have the right to make a storage charge for products not so delivered.

  8. On acceptance of an order the Seller will issue drawings for approval. If for any reason the order is then cancelled by the Buyer there will be a cancellation charge of 10% of the value of the order. If the Buyer cancels the order after the drawings have been approved and released to manufacture the cancellation charge will be dependent on the stage of manufacture at the time of cancellation.

  9. All claims for damage to, or partial loss of Goods in transit, must be submitted in writing to both carrier and Seller within three days of delivery. In the case of non-delivery, the whole consignment, claims must be submitted in writing to both the carrier and the Seller within seven days of receipt by the Buyer (or the Buyer’s agent) of notification of despatch of the Goods. In the absence of claims within the terms mentioned above, the goods shall be deemed to have been delivered in accordance with these Conditions.

  10. The Seller may, without prejudice to its other rights and remedies, terminate the contract if either there shall be any breach by the Buyer of any term or condition hereunder of the financial responsibility of the Buyer shall, in the opinion of the Seller, become impaired or unsatisfactory.
