1) FOREWORD
Orders for supplies involve the Customer’s acceptance, without reserve, of these Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale and Supply. The term “Supplier” stands for the company Idrodepurazione S.r.l., Via Comina 39, 20831 Seregno (Monza e Brianza) – Italy. Orders will be deemed accepted by the Supplier only after written confirmation. The Customer shall be bound to the prices and conditions exposed in the confirmation of order written by the Supplier.

2) SUPPLY
The supply shall only include what is described in the quotation/contract; any other verbal agreement shall not be valid if it is not countersigned by the Supplier. Unless otherwise specified, materials and deliveries shall be deemed ex-works/warehouse of the Supplier. Packaging shall be invoiced at the prices and not normally accepted for return. Even in case the Supplier has in charge the material laying, it is understood that, unless otherwise agreed, any access track to the plant installation area or unloading yards shall be the Customer’s duty at his/her expenses. The non fulfilment of all or part of the goods ordered shall not constitute any Customer’s right to request for damages. The goods supplied shall remain the Supplier’s propriety until full payment of the supply.

3) DELIVERY
The delivery terms shall be indicative, as constant and still changeable difficulties in the supply may determine significant production delays. Unless otherwise agreed in the confirmation of order, the delivery terms shall start upon receiving the supply agreement properly undersigned by the Customer as acceptance and/or after any deposit has been made in advance. Even though the Supplier is highly committed to place the order, no delays shall constitute the Customer’s right to cancel the order nor request for any compensation or damages. In case the Customer asks for a deferment of the delivery, the Supplier shall be deemed authorized to apply a warehousing burden in the region of 1% of the material value for every month or part of month deferment. The terms of payment shall start upon goods readiness notification. After eight days have passed upon goods readiness notification, the Supplier shall issue the invoice. The effectiveness of its terms of payment shall start upon goods readiness notification. The non observance of the terms of payment shall authorise the Supplier to retain goods and suspend any service activity with the Customer.

4) SHIPMENT
Unless otherwise stated by the Customer, the shipment shall be made according to the terms and the courier who is deemed most appropriate, without this constituting any responsibility of the Supplier. “The goods become propriety of the Buyer once delivered by our courier service.” Therefore, the transportation of goods shall be made at the solely Customer’s risk, even in case the agreed price is specifically intended to be “free delivery”. Similarly, the Supplier shall not accept responsibility for any delays or errors caused by the courier, against whom the Customer shall directly assert his/her rights. If the Customer wants to be guaranteed against the shipment risk, he/she shall attribute the Supplier 2% on the amount of the supply, which shall be deemed as insurance guarantee against shipment risk. If goods are collected by means of private trucks or trustworthy courier, the Customer shall inform the Supplier with at least 2 working days’ notice; in case of fault it is in the Supplier power to recharge the Customer, by virtue of the dispositions in the Italian Presidential Decree dated 6-10-1978 no. 627 and Ministerial Decree dated 29-11-1978.

5) TERMS OF PAYMENT
Prices shall be exclusive of VAT and any other tax. Payment shall be made according to the terms shown in the confirmation of order or, in the absence of the contract/order, in legal tender at the Supplier’s address and at fixed term, even in case the shipment or mounting or running or testing cannot be made within fixed terms, due to impediments not attributable to the Supplier’s responsibility. Any payment delays shall imply the charge of compensatory interest pursuant to art.1499 of Italian Civil Law, in the region of 5 points more than the official discount rate beside damages. Sales shall be made on reservation of title pursuant to art. 1523 of Italian Civil Law. In case of non-fulfilment of payment, it is the Supplier’s right to suspend current supplies or request that they are paid in advance, in their unquestionable judgement. If payment is subject to prior mounting/testing and these cannot be made effective due to causes beyond the Supplier’s responsibility, this shall have the right to temporarily invoice 95% of the total amount of the supply and request immediate payment, thus leaving the rest 5% as guarantee for mounting and/or testing, always within the limits of Law. The Supplier also reserves the right to suspend deliveries for current or future orders until full payment by the Customer of what has been delivered and invoiced to him/her.

6) MASONRY WORKS

The Customer shall also be ready to receive in properly arranged, dry places the goods which the Supplier, due to its bulk or other reasons, cannot keep in their Warehouse.

The guarantee shall terminate when, without written notice by the Supplier, repair works or changes of any kind are made to their appliances and/or payment previously established in the contract is suspended, delayed or deferred for any reason.

Any commissioning made by the Supplier’s Technical Assistance Service shall be deemed testing at all effects. In case the Customer is not interested in this service, the testing shall nevertheless be deemed made in case 2 months have passed after delivery date. If by virtue of technical specifications the Customer’s plant needs testing, this shall be made within the first eight days of plant functioning; after such date, the supplied component shall be deemed tested by tacit agreement when testing was made in the aforementioned first eight days and the plant itself shall totally be deemed accepted by the Customer. The Supplier shall therefore not be requested to make further plant testing. The chemical testing shall be made according to time and modalities to be jointly agreed.
