  • We reserve the right to carry out the orders in part deliveries – as far as the purchaser can reasonably be expected to accept the same and in so far as not otherwise agreed. Complaints in relation to part deliveries do not release the purchaser from the obligation to accept in accordance with the contract the remaining quantity of the products ordered. Due to production constraints in the manufacturing of edgings, we may have to deliver +- 9 % of the order quantity. This will be treated as a complete delivery and the purchaser will only be invoiced for the quantity received. 
  • A pre-requisite of our compliance with our delivery commitments is the punctual and proper fulfillment of the obligations on the part of the purchaser. We reserve the right to raise the defense of non-performance of the contract.

  • Should we be in default of delivery on account of a bindingly agreed delivery period, the claim to compensation to which the purchaser is entitled to the loss arising from the delay suffered due to the breach of obligation for which we are responsible shall be limited to 0.5 % / complete week, subject, however, to a maximum of 5 % of the purchase price. This shall not apply where the damage suffered results from the breach of a fundamental contractual obligation.  
  • If having demanded performance in vain, the purchaser claims compensation in place of performance, and if the breach of the obligation for which we are responsible is serious, our liability for damages shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typically suffered in such cases. 
  • Where the default in delivery for which we are responsible results from the culpable breach of a fundamental contractual obligation, our liability shall be governed by the statutory provisions; however, our liability for damages shall also here be limited to the foreseeable damage typically suffered in such cases.

  • The purchaser shall be entitled to re-sell to third parties within his ordinary course of business the products delivered under reservation of title. Where he does so, however, the purchaser shall be obliged to assign to us already now all claims accruing to him against his customers from the re-sale. The assignment is restricted to the amount of the claim, which has been agreed between the purchaser and us as the final invoice amount, including VAT. The purchaser shall be entitled to collect this debt as long as he is not in default in payment. Where this happens, we shall be entitled to revoke the authority of the purchaser to collect the debt; in such case, the purchaser shall be obliged to provide us with all necessary information to enable us to collect the debt from the customers ourselves. We shall be entitled to revoke the authorization for resale and collection where the purchaser is in considerable financial difficulties or has made an application for insolvency proceedings or the opening of composition proceedings.

  • Where the product delivered by us subject to reservation of title is indistinguishably mixed with other items/objects, we shall be entitled to the claim outstanding for the time being (final invoice amount plus value added tax), as the same was agreed between the purchaser and ourselves.

Should the securities to which we are entitled to exceed the realizable value of our claim by more than 20 %, we shall be obliged at the request of the purchaser to release the corresponding securities; the choice of the securities to be released shall lie with us. 

12. Recourse against the supplier 

  • Where claim is made against the purchaser by an end consumer on account of a defect in the delivery for which we are responsible, the rights of recourse to which the purchaser is entitled as against us shall lapse by limitation in accordance with the statutory provisions, calculated as from the passing of risk in relation to the respective delivery. The recourse shall be restricted however to the purchaser’s being able to demand reimbursement from us of the expenditure incurred in the removal of the defect. In all other respects, the provisions of Clause 8 concerning liability shall apply. 
  • If the purchaser re-sells the purchased Product within the scope of his commercial business to another consumer, and, if he had to take back this Product due to a defect, he can claim defect liability with us with a time limit in accordance with the statutory provisions.  

13. Data protection 

We shall be entitled to collect, store, change, transmit or use data of the purchaser which we receive from the business relationship with the purchaser.
