1. OFFER
Obvious errors or mistakes in the offer do not bind MercuryFlooring and can also be corrected by the MercuryFlooring after the agreement has been concluded.
The image material used in an offer serves as an illustrative indication of the main characteristics of the product in question. Deviations in the product compared to the visual material are not sufficient to claim the invalidity of the agreement.
2. SHIPMENT TERMS
All goods are shipped at the risk of the client. All our contracts are subject to the provisions of Incoterms.
3. FORCE MAJEURE
Any case of force majeure shall result in the suspension of the delivery period and shall not confer any right to the customer in respect of dissolution of the contract or in respect of indemnity. Interruption of the supply of raw materials, strike, lockout and fire shall always be considered to be force majeure.
4. DELIVERIES
A. For delivery procedures and costs, we refer to the link below
https://www.mercuryflooring.com/en/printyourmat/faq/shipping-and-delivery
B. All delivery periods are approximate 15 working days. Late delivery shall never confer a right of dissolution of the contract or in respect of indemnity. Assortments are to be specified so that they enable us to execute the orders within the foreseen delivery periods.
C. The delivered quantity is only guaranteed with the usual tolerance that a difference of 5 % more or less of the quantity cannot be considered a deficiency on our part.
D. MercuryFlooring uses external carriers for the delivery. MercuryFlooring is not responsible for any shortcomings of the carrier during delivery. MercuryFlooring will investigate the carrier in case of defective delivery. During the investigation period, no refund or other shipment will be made.
E. The customer bears the risk of damage and/or loss of the products until the moment of delivery. In principle, every delivery requires the signature of the delivery confirmation, but a lack of signature does not affect the transfer of risk.
F. Any visible damage and/or qualitative shortcoming of an article or other shortcoming in the delivery must be reported by the customer to MercuryFlooring within ten (10) days after delivery.
G. Delivery takes place from the first delivery attempt of the ordered products to the customer. The customer is deemed to make the delivery possible in accordance with the agreements. In the event of an unsuccessful delivery attempt, additional costs may be charged for a new delivery attempt.
5. COMPLAINTS AND RETURNS

B. Without prejudice to the exercise of other rights available to MercuryFlooring, in the event of non-payment or late payment from the date of default, the customer will owe an interest of 10% per year on the unpaid amount, by operation of law and without notice. In addition, the customer owes a fixed compensation of 10% of the amount concerned, by operation of law and without notice, with a minimum of 50 euros per invoice. Without prejudice to the foregoing, MercuryFlooring reserves the right to take back the items not (fully) paid for.
C. Without prejudice to the customer’s risk with respect to the products, the products sold shall remain our property until full payment has been received by MercuryFlooring. Nevertheless, the customer shall be entitled to sell these products to a third party within the normal course of his business and to deliver them provided that (if we so require) the customer, as long as he has not fully discharged his debt, hands over to MercuryFlooring the claims that he has against the third party and which emanate from this transaction. The proceeds of the sale should be credited to a separate account. The customer shall also be entitled to transform these products or to incorporate them in new products. In that case MercuryFlooring reserve to itself the legal and equitable title to the final product(s) into which the sold products are incorporated or mixed. The customer shall store the final products separately and property in these products shall remain with MercuryFlooring until full payment has been made to MercuryFlooring for the products sold to the customer. In case of non-payment at the due date, the customer is obliged, at first request of MercuryFlooring, to return the products that have not been resold. In such case any advances are acquired by us to cover eventual losses at resale.
D. If MercuryFlooring has issued terms of payment or if the customer has accepted bills of exchange, the full amount of any contract whatsoever is demandable automatically and without legal summons if any instalment payment is not respected or if any bill is not paid on its due date.
E. Bills or accepted securities involve no renunciation of these conditions nor novation.
F. Should a change of 4 % or more occur in the relation between the value of the foreign currency of the contract and the value of the Euro between contract date and payment date, we shall be entitled to adapt the contract amount accordingly.
7. SUSPENSION AND DISSOLUTION OF THE CONTRACT - EXPLICIT DISSOLUTION CONDITION
A. If the customer fails to carry out his obligations in this or another contract (e.g. payment), MercuryFlooring shall have the right automatically and without legal summons, either to suspend its obligations or to consider the contracts dissolved. A letter sent by registered mail by MercuryFlooring to the customer shall be evidence of its exercise of this right.
B. If in the opinion of MercuryFlooring there is a deterioration in the creditworthiness of the customer on account of measures of judicial execution against the customer and/or other negative demonstrable events, MercuryFlooring reserves the right to ask the customer to provide such guarantees as it may deem proper to ensure the full performance by the customer of his engagements under the contract. Such request may be made before or after delivery of all or part of any order. Should the customer fail to meet any reasonable demand for such a guarantee, MercuryFlooring shall have the right to suspend its obligations wholly or partly or even to cancel all or part of any contracts in operation.
C. In all cases in which the contract is dissolved and/or cancelled through the fault of the customer, that customer commits itself to pay to MercuryFlooring automatically and without notice of default, as indemnity, a default sum equal to 40 % of the contract value.
8. COMMISSION WORK
It is expressly agreed between the parties that all products belonging to the customer which shall at any time be in the warehouse or workshops of MercuryFlooring, shall be the subject to a lien in our favour to guarantee the payment of our charges for the transformation of the customer’s products, including any products which may already have been returned to the customer. Products which are subsequently delivered to MercuryFlooring by the customer for transformation shall be deemed to replace products already transformed and delivered to the customer. All products delivered to us by the customer for transformation shall be deemed to constitute and indivisible whole notwithstanding the fact that the products may be transformed in successive batches.
9. APPLICABLE LAW - DISPUTES
The present terms are applicable to all contracts concluded with MercuryFlooring, with the explicit exclusion of eventual terms of the customer. All issues, questions and disputes concerning the validity, interpretation, ratification, performance or termination of the agreement between MercuryFlooring and the customer shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Belgian law, without regard to any other choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (Belgian , foreign or international) that makes the law of a jurisdiction other than Belgium applicable and with the express exclusion of the Vienna Sales Convention. Disputes arising out of our contracts shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of the district of Kortrijk (Belgium).
10. FINAL PROVISIONS
The nullity or invalidity of a provision or part of a provision of this general terms and conditions does not affect the operation of the other provisions.
