Terms of service

Deliveries, Credit & Payments

We, Desaltek, will not be liable for any delay or non-deliverance of any goods ordered. Estimated time frames given at checkout are indicative only and are subject to change due to external factors. You (the customer) may be liable for freight costs for goods purchased. If the goods are not paid for online at the time of purchase, you will be required to pay to Desaltek all of the purchase price including freight, following delivery of the goods, by the due date on the delivered invoice.

If you have applied and been accepted for a credit trade account, then you must pay Desaltek for each purchased order by the due date on the delivered invoice. We may, at our discretion, without notice to you;

  • withdraw the credit offering at any time; or
  • increase or decrease the limit of the credit provided.

    If you fail to pay for goods purchased in accordance with these terms then all outstanding amounts become immediately payable and we may:

    • immediately suspend all further credit;
    • Charge interest on all outstanding amounts;
    • We may vary the interest rate charged on outstanding amounts by giving one week notice to you.

      Any expenses, costs (including full legal and collection costs) or duties incurred by us in relation to the supply of goods to you, the customer, in accordance with these terms and conditions or the enforcement of any rights contained in these Terms of Service will be added to the amount outstanding and paid by you.

      In the case of a dispute regarding payment you must pay all undisputed amounts without delay. You agree that the statement provided by Desaltek shall be conclusive evidence as to the amount owing to us by you. We reserve the right to change the purchase price of goods at any time prior to acceptance of a sale. 

      Ownership & Insurance

      Desaltek retains ownership of all products sold until the full cost has been received by us in cleared funds.

      All risk in the products and the responsibility to insure the products will pass from us to you when the products leave our warehouse for delivery.

        Defaulting on Payments & Credit Termination

        Desaltek may immediately terminate any credit offering and treat as discharged all or any obligation arising from any agreement if you, the customer:

        • have breached any of your obligations under our terms of service and the breach remains unremedied for seven (7) days after being notified of the breach; or
        • being a person, dies, commits an act of bankruptcy; or
        • being a company, takes or shall have taken against it any action for its winding up placement under management, administration or receivership; or
        • being a company, has a change in effective control not approved in writing by us.

          Following termination Desaltek may:

          • retain any security given or monies paid by you or available through the enforcement of any guarantee, security or bond and apply this in reduction of any sum which may be lawfully recovered by you; and
          • enter with all lawful force upon the customer’s premises or elsewhere to take possession of and remove our goods.

            If this contract is validly terminated by us, you must immediately return the goods that remain unpaid for. You will indemnify and hold Desaltek harmless against all claims, costs loss or damage in connection with the contract including for indirect or consequential damages.
