Terms and conditions of sale

The buyer expressly acknowledges and accepts these General Terms and Conditions of Sale of Juno Industries, which shall prevail over any general or specific terms and conditions of the buyer, unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing.
Quotations issued by Juno Industries shall remain valid for a maximum period of thirty (30) calendar days from their date of issue. Any order shall only become binding upon Juno Industries after its express written acceptance.
Prices are stated in euros (€) and exclude Value Added Tax (VAT) and any other applicable taxes or duties. Any tax changes occurring after the date of the order shall be borne entirely by the buyer.
Unless otherwise expressly agreed, deliveries shall be made EXW (Ex Works – current Incoterms® edition) from the premises of Juno Industries. If Juno Industries arranges transportation, such service shall be invoiced separately to the buyer.
Invoices shall be payable within thirty (30) days from the invoice date, net and without discount, unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing.
Additional products, logistics services, special packaging, or certifications not expressly included in the quotation shall be invoiced separately.
In the event of late payment, default interest shall accrue automatically at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, without prior notice of default being required.
Furthermore, any unpaid amount shall automatically be increased by a fixed compensation of ten percent (10%) of the outstanding balance, with a minimum amount of sixty-five euros (€65), without prejudice to the recovery of interest and any judicial or extrajudicial costs.
Any payment received shall first be applied to the oldest outstanding debt. Failure to pay a single invoice shall render all other outstanding invoices of the same buyer immediately due and payable.
Delivery times are indicative only and do not constitute a firm commitment. Delays shall not entitle the buyer to compensation or to terminate the contract.
The risk of loss, damage, or deterioration of the goods shall pass to the buyer when the goods are made available in accordance with the applicable Incoterm, even where transportation is arranged by Juno Industries.
Juno Industries may suspend or cancel orders, in whole or in part, in cases of force majeure, including but not limited to: strikes, labor disputes, wars, pandemics, governmental restrictions, shortages of raw materials, logistical disruptions, or supplier failures.
Samples, drawings, dimensions, weights, and technical specifications are provided for information purposes only. Standard technical tolerances customary within the industrial fastening industry shall be deemed acceptable.
The buyer may not cancel a confirmed order. In the event of unilateral cancellation, Juno Industries shall be entitled to compensation equal to at least thirty percent (30%) of the total order value, without prejudice to its right to claim additional damages where the actual loss exceeds such amount.
The goods shall be deemed definitively accepted five (5) calendar days after delivery unless a written and detailed claim is submitted by registered mail within that period. Such acceptance shall cover all apparent defects and any lack of conformity.
Once the goods have been accepted, Juno Industries shall not be liable for any indirect damages, loss of production, loss of profit, dismantling costs, or damages suffered by third parties arising from the use or installation of the products.
The products are covered exclusively by the manufacturer's warranty against latent defects, subject to the following conditions:
- The defect renders the product substantially unsuitable for its normal use in mechanical fastening applications.
- Installation has been carried out in accordance with industry standards and the manufacturer's instructions.
- The product has been used under normal conditions and has not been modified, dismantled, or repaired by unqualified personnel.
- Any claim must be notified in writing within a maximum period of one (1) month from the date on which the defect was discovered.
- The warranty is strictly limited to the replacement of the defective product, excluding any compensation, contract termination, or additional liability.
- The buyer shall initially bear the costs and risks of returning the defective product. If the defect is confirmed, Juno Industries shall reimburse such costs.
The goods shall remain the property of Juno Industries until full payment of the principal amount, interest, costs, and taxes has been received (retention of title).
This contract shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Belgian law.
Any dispute arising from or relating to this contract shall fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the judicial district of Ghent (Belgium).
