Sales conditions

1.   Orders are only binding upon our explicit acceptance, with the following reservations: Our own suppliers can not deliver the ordered goods because of import and export limitations of the Belgian or foreign government or due to force majeure, e.g. congestions, serious interruption of supplier’s operations, strikes, mobilizations, war, etc. In this case, we can not be claimed for compensation.

When the client cancels the order, we are entitled to a 20% compensation of  the amount of the cancelled part apart from a compensation for the expenses we had towards our supplier.  

2.   The indicated delivery time for goods has no binding effect when our suppliers are not able to deliver within the agreed term. 

3.   Goods are dispatched at the expense and at the risk of the buyer, whether the goods are sent ex Works or not. All costs resulting from unforeseen delays during traffic, no matter what the cause may be, are on expense of the buyer; unless the transporter can be held responsible.

4.   Transportation- and other risks will only be insured upon buyer’s request. In this case, the insurance costs are to the buyer’s account.
