Conditions

1. Conclusion of contract
Our offers are subject to change. We shall only be obliged to deliver if we confirm an order in writing or if the order has been executed by us. Verbal subsidiary agreements are only binding for us if they are repeated in the order confirmation. Deviating purchasing conditions of the buyer are only binding for us if we expressly acknowledge them. If facts subsequently become known which give rise to doubts about the creditworthiness of the customer, we shall be entitled to make delivery dependent on a security deposit, advance payment or partial payment of the purchase price - even if this has not been expressly agreed - or to withdraw from the contract. In the event of withdrawal, the Purchaser shall not be entitled to any claims. In the event that the provision of security by the Purchaser is necessary, the delivery times shall apply only after the provision of such security.

2. Prices
The prices stated in the order confirmation do not include VAT and are ex our warehouse. Should prices change in the period between conclusion of the contract and delivery, the price valid on the date of the order shall apply. With the publication of this price list all previous price lists become invalid.

3.Delivery times, delivery delays
We will confirm the delivery dates and adhere to them accordingly. Slight delays do not entitle to recourse in any case. In the event of delays in delivery, the purchaser may withdraw from the order after granting a reasonable period of grace of at least 20 working days. Claims for compensation for consequential damages are excluded. Fire, explosion, official measures, strikes and other cases of force majeure shall release us from our delivery obligation for the duration of our obstruction; the same shall apply if the designated events affect our suppliers. Compliance with our delivery obligations requires that the buyer has fulfilled his obligations in a timely and proper manner.

4. Deliveries
As soon as the goods leave our warehouse, the risk is transferred to the buyer. This also applies if we deliver through a carrier of our choice. The goods must be checked for completeness and obvious defects immediately upon receipt. Any defects must be noted in the consignment note. After receipt of the goods, the buyer is obliged to unpack the goods and inspect them for so-called hidden transport damage. These must be reported in writing within 5 days in compliance with the transport conditions so that the insurance coverage does not expire.

5. Default of acceptance
If the Buyer is in default of acceptance, the Seller shall be entitled to demand timely payment for the goods and compensation for the damage incurred (storage, interest, etc.).

6. Packaging
Packaging is not charged and not taken back. We are affiliated with the Resy system (pinwheel symbol), so the buyer can dispose of our packaging within this system. Any costs are to be borne by the buyer.

7. Retentiof of title
The extended retention of title applies to all deliveries. All delivered goods remain our property until full payment. We must be informed immediately of any seizures or attachments by third parties. The buyer may also resell our goods only under retention of title. In the event of resale of unpaid goods, the proceeds of the sale shall be assigned to us without further ado to the amount of our invoice. The seller accepts the assignment. The buyer undertakes to inform his customer of the assignment at our request. If the buyer is in default of payment, we shall be entitled to take back the reserved goods after giving notice and the buyer shall be obliged to surrender them.

8. Warranty
The warranty for commercial use is 1 year. Obvious defects of the delivered goods, wrong deliveries or quantity discrepancies must be reported to us in writing no later than 8 days after delivery. If this deadline is not met, these claims for defects shall expire. Minor or customary deviations in weight, shape, color, dimensions or quality as well as changes that serve the further development of the product cannot be recognized as defects. Justified defects shall only entitle the customer to withhold an appropriate part of the purchase price in proportion to the defect notified. We shall be entitled to avert any notice of defect by, at our option, rectifying the defect, supplying a replacement or granting the purchaser a reasonable price reduction. Claims for damages, in particular from consequential damages, are excluded. We shall only bear the costs of rectification work carried out by the customer with our prior consent. Goods may only be returned with our consent.

9. Payment

Our invoices are payable within 10 days, less 2% discount or 30 days without discount, unless otherwise agreed. As a matter of principle, we deliver first orders only against advance payment. In the case of customers with whom we have not had a business relationship for more than 12 months, we reserve the right to execute orders only against advance payment. The same applies to customers whose creditworthiness appears questionable to us or with whom we have had to ascertain a sluggish method of payment. In the event of overdue payments, we shall charge interest on arrears from the due date in the amount of the usual bank interest on loans. Checks are accepted under the usual reservation of cover. Bills of exchange will not be accepted by us as a matter of principle.

10. Place of performance, place of jurisdiction, final provisions
German law shall apply exclusively. The validity of the UN Charter is excluded. The place of performance shall in any case be 31275 Lehrte. The place of jurisdiction for both parties shall be Hanover. Should individual contractual provisions be void or legally invalid, this shall not affect the legal validity of the other contractual provisions. The wholly or partially invalid provisions shall then be replaced by such provisions that come closest in meaning to the invalid ones.
