The Seller shall not be under any liability whatsoever for the consequence of any delay in completion, delivery, or dispatch of the goods for any reason.
EXCLUSION LIABILITY
The supply of goods by the Seller is for business purposes and accordingly the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 does not apply. b. All warranties expressed or implied at common law or by Sale of Goods Act 1908 are hereby negatived. c. The Seller shall be under no liability to the Buyer for any loss (including but not limited to loss of profit and consequential loss) of
any kind whatsoever arising out of the supply of or failure to supply goods hereunder. d. The Seller shall be under no liability to the Buyer for any defect or defects or deterioration of goods or any part thereof (except as provided in paragraph 7 hereunder). The Seller gives no warranty that the goods are suitable for the purpose for which the Buyer proposes to use them and the Buyer must be satisfied, the Buyer’s own judgement, that such goods are in fact so suitable. As the Seller may have no control over the inclusion of any goods as components of any process or equipment the Seller gives no warranty that the goods will then function in any particular way.
WARRANTY
Goods supplied are guaranteed for the period of the manufacturer’s warranty from the date of delivery against defective work material and workmanship, provided payment for such goods is made in accordance with clauses 3 and 4. The Buyer shall return the defective goods to the Seller’s premises. The Seller shall determine whether or not the goods will be repaired or altered or replaced or whether the purchase price is to be refunded.

Ownership of any goods sold or delivered by the Seller is retained by the Seller until full payment is made in full.

All goods sold or delivered by the Seller to the Buyer in which ownership is retained by the Seller, must be stored separately so as
to be readily identified. c. If the goods are sold by the Buyer prior to payment having been made to the Seller then the proceeds of the sale shall be paid into a

The conditions of sale shall apply notwithstanding that the goods may be amalgamated with or attached with other goods. e. The Seller and its agent shall, at all times, have the right to enter the Buyer’s premises without notice to take possession of any
goods in which ownership has been retained under these conditions.
