The obligation to supply is suspended for such periods as the buyer is in arrears with payment for the product or with payments in connection with other legal transactions. Delivery of the goods is made in the trade packing ex works or branch, for account of and at the risk of the buyer. Transfer of risk takes place when the goods are handed over to the forwarder or when the goods are loaded onto the transport vehicle provided.

After receipt an immediate inspection of the goods must take place to ensure that delivery has been duly carried out and that the goods are conform to their description. Notice of complaints must be given in writing immediately and without delay to avoid loss of title.The packaging material must be disposed of by the customer.

5. Payment and price
All prices are subject to change. Payments must always be made within 8 days of date of invoice. Receipt of the invoice has no relevance to the date when the payment is due. If the buyer is in arrears with payment default interest at the rate of interest for an unsecured business loan of at least 11.2% p.a. becomes payable. All costs including out-of court costs for assertion of claims as well as those incurred through a debt collection agency are charged to the customer at the rates set out in these conditions.
 

6. Proprietary rights and assignment of claims
1) The following agreed retention of title serves to secure all existing current and future claims of the Seller against the Buyer arising from the supply relationship between the parties to the contract concerning insulation materials supplied, airtight products and machines which process these products (including balance claims from a current account relationship limited to this supply relationship).
(2) The goods delivered by the Seller to the Buyer shall remain the property of the Seller until all secured claims have been paid completely. The goods as well as the goods covered by the retention of title replacing them in accordance with the following provisions shall hereinafter be referred to as "reserved goods".
(3) The Buyer shall store the reserved goods free of charge for the Seller.

(4) The purchaser is entitled to process and sell the reserved goods in the ordinary course of business until the case of enforcement (paragraph 9) has occurred. Pledges and transfers by way of security are not permitted.
(5) If the reserved goods are processed by the Buyer, it is agreed that the processing is carried out in the name and for the account of the Seller as manufacturer and that the Seller directly acquires the ownership or - if the processing is carried out from materials of several owners or the value of the processed object is higher than the value of the reserved goods - the co-ownership (fractional ownership) of the newly created object in the ratio of the value of the reserved goods to the value of the newly created object. In the event that no such acquisition of ownership should occur at the seller, the Buyer already now transfers his future ownership or - in the above ratio - co-ownership of the newly created object to the Seller as security. If the reserved goods are combined or inseparably mixed with other items to form a uniform item and if one of the other items is to be regarded as the main item, the Seller shall assign to the Buyer, to the extent that the main item belongs to him, the proportionate co-ownership of the uniform item in the proportion stated in sentence 1.

The same applies to other claims which take the place of the reserved goods or otherwise arise with regard to the reserved goods, such as insurance claims or claims arising from tort in the event of loss or destruction. The seller revocably legitimates the Buyer to collect the claims assigned to the Seller in his own name. The Seller may only revoke this direct debit authorisation in the case of enforcement.
(7) If third parties have access to the reserved goods, in particular by seizure, the Buyer shall immediately inform them of the Seller's ownership and inform the Seller thereof in order to enable him to enforce his ownership rights. If the third party is not in a position to reimburse the Seller for the judicial or extrajudicial costs incurred in this connection, the Buyer shall be liable to the Seller for such costs.
(8) The Seller shall release the goods subject to retention of title as well as the items or claims replacing them insofar as their value exceeds the amount of the secured claims by more than 50%. The Seller shall be responsible for selecting the items to be released thereafter.
