Who these terms are with
These terms apply to quotations issued by, and orders accepted by, Shaanxi Fortex Technology Co., Ltd. (Fortex), a company registered in Xi’an, Shaanxi, People’s Republic of China. CLIENT TO SUPPLY: registered company number and registered address
Quotations
A quotation is an invitation to order, not a binding offer, unless it says otherwise on its face. Every quotation states the Incoterm, the named place, the currency and its validity period. Prices outside that period are re-quoted rather than assumed.
Specification
The specification is what the accepted drawing, grade and standard say. Where a drawing and a written instruction disagree, we ask before we build. We do not substitute a grade, finish, coating or sub-supplier without your written agreement.
Tolerances
Unless the drawing states otherwise, machined parts are held to ISO 2768-m. Tighter classes are available and are priced separately. A tolerance we cannot hold is raised at quotation, not at inspection.
Inspection and acceptance
Goods are inspected before dispatch and ship with the documentation described on the quality page. Please inspect on arrival and raise any discrepancy in writing within CLIENT TO SUPPLY: inspection window, e.g. 14 days of delivery, with the reference number from the shipment.
Delivery terms
Delivery is on the Incoterm stated on the order confirmation, interpreted under Incoterms 2020. Lead times run from the later of order confirmation, receipt of cleared payment where prepayment applies, and your approval of the first article or material sample.
Payment
CLIENT TO SUPPLY: payment terms, deposit percentage, accepted methods and bank details policy
Tooling and intellectual property
You keep all rights in the drawings, models and specifications you supply. Fortex keeps rights in its own process know-how. Ownership of any tooling paid for as a separate line item is stated on the order confirmation.
Warranty
We warrant that goods conform to the accepted specification and are free from defects in material and workmanship at delivery. Where they are not, we replace them or refund them. CLIENT TO SUPPLY: warranty period and any exclusions, confirmed by counsel
Limitation of liability
CLIENT TO SUPPLY: liability cap and exclusions, drafted by counsel for each target market
Export control and compliance
You confirm that the goods are not ordered for an end use or end user prohibited under applicable export control or sanctions law, and that you will not re-export them in breach of such law.
Governing law and disputes
CLIENT TO SUPPLY: governing law and dispute forum — arbitration seat or courts
