Terms & Conditions

SCOPE

These Terms and Conditions apply if goods are supplied by ZTX Group Pty Ltd ABN 21 649 710 181 (Us/We/Our) to you (Goods). These Terms and Conditions form part of any quotation, purchase order, invoice or contract to which they are attached and replace any previous Terms and Conditions issued by Us or you. Any order by you for supply of Goods which includes terms not expressly included in these Terms and Conditions is of no effect and the Goods will only be supplied by us exclusively on the basis of these Terms and Conditions.

Any acceptance by you of any Goods on terms which contain any provision inconsistent with, or purporting to vary or reject any of these, Terms and Conditions is only binding on Us to the extent We expressly agree in writing that such provisions override these Terms and Conditions.

You agree to provide Us with sufficient information to enable Us to commence work and proceed without interruption. You are responsible for, and warrant the accuracy of any information you provide to Us. You will be responsible for and bear the cost of any alteration to Goods required due to any discrepancy, error or omission in any drawing, specification or other information provided by, or approved by, you. You warrant that provision of this information does not infringe the intellectual property rights of any person.

PAYMENT

Invoices are due and payable within 30 days of the date of any invoice submitted by Us to you / end of the month to which the invoice relates. We reserve the right to require payment in full before shipment of any Goods for new buyer accounts, accounts in arrears and for credit rating purposes.

Goods will not be supplied to you if you have an overdue account until the overdue account is paid in full. We reserve the right to charge interest at a rate not exceeding the then current prime interest rate on any overdue accounts and overdue account fees.

Payment must be made in Australian dollars to the account nominated by Us.

PRICE

You agree to pay Us the price set out on any purchase order issued or agreed to by Us in connection with the sale of Goods (Purchase Order).

The price given by Us may be varied by Us at any time prior to delivery to take into account increased costs to Us or revisions to the order as requested by you. All prices listed in the pricelist are subject to GST & change for any variances in rates of freight, insurance, duties, shipping expenses, sorting and stacking charges, cost of materials and other charges affecting the cost of production.

If we become liable to pay GST or any other taxes or duties in connection with the sale of the Goods, the price of those Goods is increased so that after payment of GST or other taxes or duties the net amount retained by Us is the same as before the GST or other taxes or duties (as applicable) is applied.

You are not entitled to withhold payment or make any deduction from the price notified by Us to you in respect of any set-off or counter-claim.

If you default in making any payment due to Us by the time due for payment, in addition to Our rights at law, you also agree We have the right to charge you interest on the overdue amount at 3% above the rate charged to Us by our banker for overdraft accommodation any calculated from the due date until actual full and final payment. We may also suspend all deliveries of Goods and other work to you.

ORDERING

Orders will only be accepted by fax, email or written orders sent by post. Verbal orders will not be actioned until written authorisation is received.

Any quotation by Us is not to be construed as an obligation to sell any Goods but is an invitation on you to make an offer to purchase the Goods subject to these Terms and Conditions.

Any quotation by Us to supply any Goods is valid for a period of 30 days unless otherwise specified in the quotation.

To minimise risk of damage during shipment, We only accept orders in inner or outer carton quantities. Any backorders held will be supplied with your next order at Our discretion if you nominate for Us to keep backorders. Any specified packaging or handling required by you will be at your cost regardless of whether such cost has been specified in any Purchase Order.

Cancellations may only be accepted on payment of a reasonable fee in Our discretion. No cancellations will be accepted for anything other than standard stock which can be resold to other customers.

Each Purchase Order agreed by Us and you constitutes a separate contract for the supply of Goods, and unless otherwise permitted in these Terms and Conditions, the breach of any one such contract will not be grounds for the termination of any other contract so formed between Us and you.

TITLE & RISK

Property and ownership of the Goods will not pass to you but will remain with Us until payment of the purchase price of the Goods and of all other amounts owing by you to Us is received by Us in cleared funds. Prior to the passing of title in any Goods, the Goods must not be resold, pledged or given in security by you in any circumstances whatsoever.

We reserve the following rights in relation to the Goods until all accounts owed by you to Us are fully paid:

  • ownership of the Goods;
  • to enter your premises (or the premises where the Goods are stored) without liability for trespass or any resulting damage and to re-take possession of the Goods; and
  • to keep or re-sell any Goods repossessed.

All risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Goods passes from Us to you on dispatch of the Goods from Our premises. You are responsible at your cost for obtaining appropriate insurance in relation to any Goods in transit.

We retain a purchase money security interest in all Goods dispatched but not paid for in full, and in their accessories, replacements, accessions, proceeds and products, including accounts receivable (Collateral) to secure payment of all amounts due under any contract between Us and you. Your failure to pay all amounts in full when and as due constitute a default and give us all rights of a secured party. If you fail to pay Us any amount when due We have the right to repossess and remove all or any part of the Collateral from you, but not from your customers. Any repossession or removal is without prejudice to any other remedy of Ours, whether under these Terms and Conditions or at law or otherwise. We may at any time register a financing statement on the Personal Property Securities Register to register Our security interest. You agree to take any action and execute and deliver any document reasonably requested by Us to transfer, create, perfect, preserve, protect and enforce Our security interest. You waive any right to receive from us a copy of any financing statement, financing change statement or verification arising in connection with any registration made by us in connection with Our security interest. To the fullest extent permitted by law you waive all rights under the Personal Properties Securities Act which would otherwise arise on enforcement by Us of any security interest.

You are not relieved of any obligation to pay for Goods which are delayed in either delivery or dispatch. Goods are deemed delivered on delivery of those Goods at the point of delivery. Delivery to your agent, carrier or representative constitutes delivery to you.

FREIGHT

All prices quoted are, unless expressly stated in the Purchase Order to the contrary, exclusive of freight, which will be added to the price of any order.

We reserve the right to make partial deliveries of any Goods the subject of existing contracts between Us and you and to invoice such deliveries separately. Partial delivery of an order does not constitute any repudiation of any contract of sale formed by these Terms and Conditions.

INSPECTION

You must immediately notify us if you identify any defects at the email address in clause 21. Any defective Goods must be returned to Us at your cost within 5 days of you receiving the Goods at the address noted in clause 21. If you fail to inspect and give Us notice in accordance with this clause you will be deemed to have waived your right to bring any claim in connection with any such fault.

ADVICE
