    3.3. The Seller’s Quotation is, in particular, a price bid of the Goods that the Seller sends to the Buyer on their request. A draft Purchase Contract sent by the Seller to the Buyer shall also be considered a Quotation.
    3.4. Acceptance with deviation.

If the Buyer accepts the Seller’s Quotation with a supplement or a deviation, such acceptance shall be considered a new draft of the Purchase Contract, the acceptance of which requires an explicit consent of the Seller, even though it does not substantially change the terms and conditions of the Quotation.
    3.5. The form of the Order, Quotation and acceptance. The Order, Quotation and their acceptance can be sent electronically (by e-mail), by fax or by post. For this purpose, the exchange of e-mail or other electronic messages (without a guaranteed electronic signature) to the address that the Parties have demonstrably provided to one another or messages sent by fax shall be considered a written form.

    3.7. By concluding the Purchase Contract, the Buyer confirms that they have read the GTT and agree with them. The provisions of the Purchase Contract shall take precedence over the GTT.
  4. QUALITY
    4.1. The Seller guarantees to only deliver the Goods to the Buyer wholly owned by the Seller and that the Goods are not subject to any third party rights.
    4.2. Unless the Parties arranged other standards in the Purchase Contract, the Seller shall deliver the Goods in the quality and with dimensions stipulated under standards DIN.791, DIN 24041-3, DIN 24537, 24531 and RAL-GZ 638 according to the respective type of the Goods.
    4.3. The Seller is not responsible for the fact that the Goods are not suitable for the purpose they were purchased for, even if the application is expressly stated in the Purchase Contract. The Buyer shall assess the suitability of the ordered Goods for their purpose according to their own requirements, abilities and knowledge and the Buyer is fully responsible for the suitability of the technical data, specifications describing the Goods, their parts and all the properties of the Goods and material determining their future application with the Buyer’s requirements, the purpose of the intended application and the Buyer’s order.
    4.4. Unless the Parties agree otherwise in the Purchase Contract, the Goods shall be delivered unpacked and unprotected against corrosion.
    4.5. Unless a specific property of the Goods or their specification (such as the finish, colour, secondary dimensions) are expressly agreed, the Seller shall deliver the Goods with properties at their discretion without being required to ascertain the Buyer’s requirements or needs. The Buyer cannot require and file any claims regarding any other properties that those expressly arranged. The lack of such properties shall not be considered a defect and no warranties shall apply.
    4.6 Expanded metal is manufactured in a manner where the first dimension of the mesh is parallel with the first dimension of the format. The grates have reinforced strips parallel with the second mesh dimension. The first dimension is supporting. Expanded metal steps have the first mesh dimension parallel with the format dimension. Considering the possibilities of producing the same type of expanded metal on various machines, the same types may differ in minor view details. This fact needs to be pointed out when ordering (placing additional orders) more pieces for the same project and arrangements need to be made with the sales representative. The technical parameters, related standards and the method of use of the floor grates and steps made of expanded metal are resolved in the “Construction Technical Certificate” by the Technical and Test Institute for Construction Prague. Perforated sheets and expanded metal made of pre-galvanised metal and coils have untreated inner cut edges of holes and cut peripheral edges. Steel, including stainless, is subject to corrosion. Carbon steel may be protected with hot-dipping (not visual) or zinc coating and various types of wet or powder varnishes to delay the onset of corrosion. The onset of corrosion depends on the conditions of the environment, the used stainless steel grade or quality of the surface protection of carbon steel and the purpose of application. Our Company is not responsible for the onset of corrosion for reasons stipulated above but we guarantee the delivery of the confirmed quality of material (material attestation). Stock expanded metal can break in the node when bent; it is not manufactured with a bending test requirement as standard. The use of more ductile material can be provided by customised production requirement. Expanded metal is scratched on the reverse side from the production. Corten expanded metal is not delivered corroded; it rusts when exposed to the effects of weather. The shade of the aluminium the expanded metal is made of may differ (gloss/matte). The expanded metal mesh is not cohesive as standard. Anodised expanded metal is exclusively subject to the rules of companies performing anodising. The goods are packed on pallets or in bundles with maximum weight of 3,000 kg. Smaller quantities can be packed in cardboard packaging.
  5. DELIVERY TERMS
    5.1. The terms and conditions for delivering the Goods to the Buyer are governed by the Purchase Contract and also by the GTT, unless stipulated otherwise in the Purchase Contract.
    5.2. Delivery term. The Buyer shall notify the Seller of any potential sanctions due to the failure to meet the delivery term subject to a third party contract. Unless the Parties arrange for the time of the delivery of the Goods in the Purchase Contract, the Seller shall deliver the Goods to the Buyer at a reasonable time considering the production and logistic possibilities of the Seller. The Seller meets their obligations in a timely manner when the Goods are delivered within 60 days after the conclusion of the Purchase Contract. In this case, there is no reason for any sanction measures unless the Purchase Contract expressly stipulated otherwise. However, each of the Parties is entitled to withdraw from the Contract if the delay exceeds three months, while such a withdrawal will not lead to any sanctions or obligation of the other Party, unless agreed otherwise. Any prior delays in deliveries do not impair the Buyer’s obligation to accept other deliveries of the Goods.
    5.3. The Seller shall notify the Buyer of the precise delivery term of the Goods sufficiently in advance. If any extraordinary events preventing the Seller’s proper performance occur, independently of the Seller’s will, which cannot be averted by the Seller, the Seller shall have the right to reasonably extend the delivery terms for the Goods (at least by the period, during which the extraordinary circumstances prevented the performance of the obligation). The Buyer acknowledges that unless a discount, a fine or a penalty for delayed delivery is expressly stipulated in the Purchase Contract, it is not possible to demand such compensation from the Seller.
    5.4. Place of delivery. Unless the Parties arrange a place of delivery of the Goods in the Purchase Contract, the Seller shall meet their obligation to deliver the Goods by letting the Buyer load the Goods at the personal pick-up address: the Seller’s premises – Příborská 1494, 738 01 Frýdek-Místek or the production plant at Ulice Míru 3651, Frýdek-Místek.
    5.5. Quantity deviation. The Seller is entitled to adjust the quantity of the delivered Goods considering its character and form it is manufactured in (e.g., to round up to metres, kilograms, number of production lengths etc.). However, the deviation must not exceed +/- 10% of the quantity arranged in the Purchase Contract without the Buyer’s consent.
    5.6. Delivery confirmation. The Buyer shall confirm the delivery of the Goods to the Seller in writing by signing the Delivery note, otherwise the Seller is not obligated to submit the Goods to the Buyer.
    5.7. Acceptance of the Goods delivered by the Seller. If the Seller provides delivery of the Goods to the place of delivery according to the Purchase Contract, the Buyer shall ensure that there is a person authorised to accept the Goods on behalf of the Buyer at the place of delivery on the day of delivery (the Seller can inform the Buyer by telephone of the precise time) and ensure unloading of the Goods from the Seller’s vehicle immediately upon its arrival, otherwise the Buyer shall be liable to the Seller for any and all damage incurred by the Seller (in particular, the costs of the carrier related to waiting, lost profit, damage and sanctions demanded from the Seller by third parties for delays of the following deliveries implemented within one delivery trip etc.).
    If the Buyer fails to notify the Seller of the person authorised to accept the Goods from the Seller on the delivery site, in writing at least one day prior to the delivery of the Goods, the person present on the delivery site shall be entitled to accept the Goods for the Buyer, inspect the Goods and notify the Seller of any potential defects.
    5.8. If the Buyer fails to arrive at the delivery site within one hour after the Seller notifies the Buyer of the arrival of the vehicle with the Goods at the delivery site, the Seller shall be entitled (but not obligated) to recall such a vehicle and demand compensation of the costs of failed transport and related damages from the Buyer. If the Seller recalls the vehicle due to the Buyer’s delay with the acceptance of the Goods and the Parties do not arrange another date for the delivery of the Goods, the Seller shall meet their obligation to deliver the Goods by letting the Buyer dispose of the Goods on the Seller’s premises; the Seller shall notify the Buyer correspondingly.
    5.9. Unloading the Goods. The Buyer shall arrange and perform unloading of the Goods from the vehicle at their own costs and risk. The Buyer is liable for any damage and losses incurred when unloading, storing and handling the Goods on the delivery site.
    5.10. Inspection of the Goods. The Buyer shall inspect the Goods upon acceptance to ascertain that the delivered Goods are in compliance with the Purchase Contract in terms of quality and quantity and that there are no defects. The Buyer shall inspect the Goods on the delivery site prior to unloading from the vehicle when the transport of the Goods is provided by the Seller, or prior to loading to the vehicle on the delivery site when the transport of the Goods is provided by the Buyer. If the Buyer cannot perform a detailed inspection of the Goods upon acceptance for any reason, this fact shall be indicated in the Delivery Note, and the Buyer shall undertake to store the Goods to maximally protect their damage, loss and destruction, namely due to the effects of weather (rain, high humidity) and unauthorised access. If the Goods are packed, the Buyer shall take all measures necessary to prevent moisture condensation inside the packaging. In this case, the inspection of the Goods shall be performed without unreasonable delay as soon as the obstacle preventing the performance of the inspection no longer applies. If the Buyer violates their obligation to store the Goods according to this Article and subsequently returns the Goods to the Seller due to the Seller’s liability for defects of the Goods, the Seller shall be entitled to demand compensation of damage for any damaged Goods from the Buyer up to 70% of the cost of the returned Goods (the Seller shall set the specific amount at their discretion, usually in relation to the scope of damage). The Seller shall be entitled to set off such a determined amount of damage against their obligation to refund the Buyer for the purchase price of the returned Goods.
    5.11. The right to reject the delivery. The Seller is not obligated to deliver the Goods to the Buyer by the agreed date when the following applies as of the moment of the delivery of the Goods:

    5.11.2. Bankruptcy proceedings against the Buyer have commenced.
    If the Seller refuses to deliver the Goods to the Buyer for reasons stipulated in this Article, the delivery term for the Goods is changed automatically to the 14th (fourteenth) day after the reason, for which the Seller refused to deliver the Goods, expires.
  6. RISK OF DAMAGE AND TITLE
    6.1. The risk of damage of the Goods passes onto the Buyer at the moment of the acceptance of the Goods on the delivery site or at the moment the Buyer is in delay with the obligation to accept the Goods, whichever occurs earlier. If the Seller provides the transport of the Goods to the delivery site, the risk of damage shall pass onto the Buyer prior to unloading the Goods from the vehicle. The Seller is not liable for damage of the Goods incurred when the Buyer or a third party holds the Goods. Also, the Seller is not liable for damage of products manufactured by the Buyer or a third party or products that contains the Goods sold by the Seller. The Seller is not liable for any subsequent and indirect damages, including, but not limited to, loss of profit or earnings. To the extent that the Seller may be liable to a third party for the Goods, the Buyer shall indemnify the Seller in the same scope as the Seller’s liability is restricted in accordance with the aforementioned.
