Purchase and delivery conditions for SolarNordics

Introduction

These general terms and conditions of sale apply to all deliveries of Products from SolarNordics

For the delivery of products in SolarNordics regular range, our general purchase and delivery conditions apply as below, unless another special agreement has been entered into. For any other products, which are not part of the regular range but are provided at the Buyer’s special request, the relevant manufacturer’s order and delivery conditions apply.

These General Terms and Conditions of Sale replace SolarNordics previously applied general terms and conditions of sale from the date specified below. The solar wholesaler reserves the right to change these General Terms and Conditions of Sale at any time. Amended General Terms and Conditions of Sale apply directly. All purchases of Products must be for the Buyer’s professional use.

Competence

Since the Buyer is liable for payment for all purchases made on the specified customer number, the Buyer must always inform the Solar Wholesaler of changes in authorizations and notify when an authorization is to end that no longer belongs to the Buyer’s organization. The buyer is responsible for ensuring that login information to SolarNordics webshop does not fall into unauthorized hands. The buyer is responsible for all purchases made by people who have received login details to SolarNordics webshop. The solar wholesaler has the right to close a customer account in the event that the Buyer has not shopped for a period of at least 24 months.

1. Order terms:

1.1 Products are ordered via SolarNordics webshop by the Buyer or via quotation. When ordering via the webshop and calculation tools, an order confirmation is sent immediately after the order has been placed. After processing the order, an order confirmation with delivery notice is sent to the e-mail address that the Buyer has specified in his customer profile/order document. After receiving the order, the Solar Wholesaler has three (3) working days (the acceptance period) to accept or decline the Buyer’s order in its entirety or parts of it. During the acceptance period, however, the order is binding on the Buyer.

1.2 The solar wholesaler cannot guarantee that goods ordered by the Buyer at any time are available in stock and/or can be delivered within a certain time at the desired price. We also reserve the right to final sales and intermediate sales of products.

1.3 Buyers are responsible for all information to their end customers regarding delivery times and conditions, handling of products, product guarantees, etc. The solar wholesaler normally assists the Buyer with such information via our webshop, as well as in contacts with manufacturers regarding product warranty matters, but the responsibility towards the end customer rests with the Buyer.

Cancellation and change of order must be registered via support at SolarNordics.

2.1 For delivery within Sweden, in addition to these delivery conditions, the general regulations of the technical companies NLS 19, as well as FCA Incoterms 2020 apply (the goods are delivered to the carrier, normally from our distribution center). In the event that these general conditions deviate from NLS 19 and/or FCA Incoterms 2020, these general conditions take precedence.

The Buyer must notify SolarNordics in writing of defects or defects in the products immediately (within five (5) days for visible defects, and twelve (12) days for hidden defects) after the Buyer discovers, or reasonably should have discovered, the defects or defects in order to invoke the right to complaint.

While waiting for the complaint to be decided, the buyer must take care of the goods and notify the Solar Wholesaler where the goods can be inspected if necessary.

9. Limitation of liability:

9.1 If the Solar Wholesaler anticipates that delivery (by “delivery” here is meant when the goods have been handed over to the carrier in accordance with FCA Incoterms 2020) will not be able to take place at the specified time, the Solar Wholesaler must notify the Buyer of this without delay.

9.2 The solar wholesaler is not responsible for delays due to circumstances beyond the solar wholesaler’s control.

If the delivery delay is due to circumstances on the Buyer’s side, the Solar Wholesaler has the right to a reasonable extension of the delivery time. The buyer is not entitled to damages due to delivery under these conditions.

The following circumstances constitute grounds for exemption if they result in the fulfillment of obligations under these delivery regulations being hindered or unreasonably burdensome: labor conflict and any other circumstance beyond the SolarNordics control (such as – but not limited to – fire, natural disaster or extreme natural events, war or other military obstruction, insurrection, riot, epidemic, vandalism, sabotage, terrorism, embargo, requisition or seizure, trade or currency restrictions, shortage of means of transport, general shortage of goods or new legislation, as well as failure or delay in deliveries from subcontractors caused by similar exemption grounds) and which could not reasonably be foreseen when the order was placed, the Solar Wholesaler is released from the obligation to fulfill these general delivery conditions.

As soon as the grounds for exemption according to above cease, performance according to these terms of delivery shall resume. A party that wishes to assert a ground for exemption according to above must notify the other party of this in writing without delay.
