  3. Our representatives or agents are not authorised to bind us.
  4. Orders will not be valid until we have accepted them in writing.
  5. Delivery periods are for information only. In no event may a delayed delivery provide reason for refusal of the goods or acknowledgement of a claim for damages in any form whatsoever. Guaranteed delivery periods will be extended by operation of law in the event of fire, industrial action or any other instance of force majeure.
  6. Goods will be considered to have been accepted at Opglabbeek and transport will be at the risk of the purchaser even if sent carriage paid.
  7. Our prices are established upon the date of the order confirmation. Changes that influence these prices will be implemented without prior notification.
  8. In order to be accepted, all complaints must be made to us in writing and sent by registered post within eight days after receipt of the goods. Return dispatches or exchanges will not ever be accepted without our written consent.
  9. Our invoices will be paid in cash at the net price and without a discount rate at Opglabbeek within thirty days of the invoice date, unless other conditions of payment have been specified on the front of the invoice. Bills of exchange drawn on our clients do not make an exception to this rule.
  10. Failure to pay an invoice by the expiry date will incur default interest at the ECB reference rate increased by 7 percentage points and rounded up to the nearest half percentage point. If payment is not received within 8 days following the expiry date on the invoice, compensation will be owed by operation of law, set at a fixed amount of 10 percentage points of the amount owed with a minimum of € 75, without a registered notice of default being required. Collection costs, court costs and extrajudicial costs will be borne in full by the client.
  11. The dissolution or winding-up of a legal entity, signs of unstable solvency, non-payment of an expired amount, refusal to accept ordered and/or goods under delivery or non-compliance with any other contractual obligation by the customer entitles us, upon a simple notification and at our own discretion, to:
  12. destroy or change current orders.
  13. demand payment of the delivery as well as immediate payment of any outstanding balances even on other deliveries or orders, without observing the agreed upon periods.
  14. request for delivered goods that have not yet been paid by the client to be returned within 24 hours. If goods are not returned within this period, the seller, no matter where he may be, may take back the goods without any legal formality or intervention.
  15. The following explicit dissolution clause shall apply to sales to Belgian clients. If the purchaser does not implement this or another contract in part or in full, the seller may suspend their obligations by operation of law and without notice of default. Furthermore, if the purchaser does not fulfil his obligations in good time, the seller may, without prejudice to his right to compensation, deem this contract non-existent in part or in whole by operation of law at any time upon providing notification by registered letter with confirmation of receipt, without notice of default.
  16. The retention of title of the purchaser’s country shall apply. See the table below.
  17. In the event of a dispute, Belgian law shall apply and only the courts of the Belgian districts of Hasselt and Tongeren are competent, upon the understanding that the seller is entitled to bring a dispute before the court of the client’s registered office/ place of residence/country.
  18. If one or more of the conditions laid down here are null and void due mandatory legal provisions, the other sales conditions laid down here shall retain their full effect. If any provisions are void, they shall be replaced by provisions that are not contrary to mandatory laws and that differ as little as possible from the intention of the void conditions.
