General Terms and conditions

1. Unless otherwise agreed in writing prior to the conclusion of the contract, we only process all our transactions under the general terms and conditions set forth below, to the exclusion of any other terms. Any purchase conditions or other terms not expressly accepted in writing by us are not binding on us. Any order constitutes acceptance of these sales conditions by the buyer.

2. Any general offer made by us does not constitute a commitment. No order is accepted without written confirmation from us.

3. Our invoices are issued at the rate in effect on the day of delivery. Our prices are set excluding VAT. Any exchange rate risk is borne by the buyer. The issuance of commercial paper, as well as the possible granting of terms and deadlines, will not constitute novation.

4. Unless expressly stated, delivery times are not binding; they are provided for information purposes only

5. Delivery is deemed to be made at our premises or factories. Regardless of the specific delivery conditions, goods are always transported at the recipient's risk

6. Unless otherwise stipulated, our invoices are payable in cash at our head office. Failure to pay an invoice on its exact due date will automatically render all other invoices, including those not yet due, immediately payable without prior notice. The same applies to any issued commercial paper.

7. Any invoice not paid by its due date will automatically accrue interest at a rate of 15% per year from that date, without prior notice. Furthermore, in accordance with Articles 1226 and following of the Civil Code, a fixed and non-reducible penalty clause of 20% of the invoice amount, with a minimum of 25 euros, will be applied automatically and without prior notice.

8. In the event of non-payment of an invoice on its exact due date, the seller reserves the right to request the termination of the sale.

9. In the event of termination of the sale, the buyer shall pay a conventional indemnity fixed at 30% of the invoice amount, notwithstanding this termination. Any invoice will be considered accepted unless a specific objection is communicated in writing within eight days of the invoice being sent. All goods delivered to the client remain our exclusive property until full payment is made and all obligations arising from the purchase agreement are fulfilled. The buyer may not transfer the goods to third parties without our consent. Without prejudice to other rights granted to us, we are irrevocably authorized by the buyer, in the event of suspended payments and/or any delay in payment, to reclaim the delivered goods without any formal notice or judicial intervention.

10. Any dispute falls under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts and Tribunals of Brussels or the Justice of the Peace of the Third Canton of Brussels. Furthermore, only Belgian law shall apply. We are not responsible for any verbal promises or statements made by our representatives or employees. Such promises or statements shall not, therefore, bind us in any way
