Terms and conditions of supply (premium)

These terms and conditions cover the supply of goods by one business to another.

The core provisions of these terms and conditions cover the supply itself (which may be by delivery or collection), the transfer or title to the purchaser, the purchaser's obligations in relation to the goods, charges and payments, goods-related warranties, limits upon the parties' liability, and termination of the contract. In addition, a range of optional provisions are included covering such matters as intellectual property rights in the goods, complaints, breach of warranty procedures and indemnities. A skeleton order form is included.

This document is not designed for particular categories of goods, but if you are supplying goods under high value contracts, or are supplying goods that present particular legal or practical risks, you should take legal advice on the terms of supply. Also, this document is not suitable for international or large-scale shipments of goods.
