The delivery of our equipment and component parts will be made strictly in accordance with our acknowledgement of order which should be checked by the customer on receipt.

Despatch takes place at the risk and liability of the buyer. This applies for deliveries ex works, as well as free domicile.

No claims will be accepted for delayed deliveries through unforeseeable causes.
