Les parties aux présentes ont exigé que ces termes et conditions ainsi que toute autre avis, document ou procédure s’y rapportant soit rédigé en anglais.

If the Terms differ in any way from the terms and conditions set out in your order, the Terms will be construed as a counter-offer and will not be effective as an acceptance. The Terms will be deemed accepted by you without modification or qualification, unless we receive written objection to the Terms prior to: (a) the carrier taking possession of the ordered products at our dock; or(b) within three (3) business days after we have notified you of the Terms; whichever occurs first. Additional or conflicting terms and conditions set out in your purchase order are objected to and excluded. Acceptance of a purchase order does not obligate us to accept any future orders or obligate you to submit orders in the future. If we have entered into and signed a separate written agreement with you governing the sale of the products as set out in your order then for so long as the separate written agreement remains in effect any conflicting terms and conditions set out in the written agreement will take precedence over the Terms.

All orders received that do not meet the minimum order value of $200 will be subject to a handling charge of $20 and applicable shipping charges will apply. Additional shipping charges will apply to any requests for same day delivery. Unless you request otherwise in your order, we will at your expense and risk arrange for shipment through our choice of carrier. All shipping charges are added to your invoice. Shipping charges will be those in effect the day the shipment is shipped from our dock. Invoices relating to the lost or damaged shipment will remain owing in full. Requests for air freight shipments will be shipped prepaid with the air freight charges added to the invoice. Risk of loss and damage shall pass to you once the carrier takes possession of the ordered products at our facility. If so specified on the order acceptance form, title to product ordered will not pass to you until we have received payment in full for your order otherwise title will pass once the carrier has taken possession of the products at our dock.

Products sold to you pursuant to the terms are not for resale and are authorized only for consumption and/or use in Canada.

Before returning product for any reason, you must first obtain a return authorization number from the Customer Service Department prior to credit or replacement. No return authorization number will be provided unless and until we first receive the following information: (i) a purchase order number, (ii) invoice number, (iii) product number, (iv) reason for return, and (v) lot or serial number, if applicable. Products returned without a return authorization number will not be accepted by us, and will be returned to you collect. Any shipment shortages must be reported within three (3) days. Once a return authorization number has been received, products must be received by us prepaid within fourteen (14) days. All products must be returned in saleable condition. Merchandise held over thirty (30) days from date of invoice will not be accepted for return. Expired, discontinued, damaged, custom, special order, open packages, or modified products will not be accepted for return. Any products that have proven defective or damaged during or after use must be sterilized or disinfected by you and you must provide us with proof that the products have been sterilized or disinfected accordingly. A re-stocking fee of $75.00 or 25% whichever is greater, will be applied unless the product was returned due to a defect covered under warranty or was shipped in error.

1. Payment terms are net thirty (30) days. An interest charge of the lesser of 1.5% per month (18% per annum), or the maximum amount allowed under applicable law, will at our option be charged on all past due invoice amounts commencing on the date payment is due. We reserve the right to request payment in full or in part prior to delivery and to delay delivery or cancel your purchase order if you fail to make payment prior to delivery as requested.

(1) We warrant to you that at the time of delivery the products will be of good commercial quality and comply, in all material respects, with the specifications set out in the product packaging and/or inserts. This warranty will expire twelve (12) months after the date the carrier takes possession of the products at our dock. For disposables, the only applicable warranty, including any applicable expiration dating, will be the warranty, if any, as specified by the manufacturer in its insert or labeling. If you prove to our satisfaction that a product is not in compliance with this warranty we will, at our option, either:

(a) repair the product to bring it in compliance or replace it, all at no charge to you; or

(b) issue a credit for the purchase price paid by you for the product. To make a warranty claim, please contact our Customer Service Department first. The warranty set out in this Section 5 is the only warranty made by us with respect to the products. No other express or implied warranties, conditions, or representations apply, including without limitation, any implied warranties or conditions of merchantable quality, durability, and fitness for a particular purpose or use or infringement of third party intellectual property rights; except for those implied warranties and conditions that may not be disclaimed by contract under applicable law.

(2) Our total cumulative liability of any kind or nature, whether in contract (including fundamental breach), warranty, tort (including negligence) or otherwise is limited to the remedy for non-compliance with the warranty as set out in this section 7 or, if the remedy fails of its essential purpose or is otherwise unenforceable, to damages not to exceed the amount invoiced for the purchase order(s) giving rise to our liability. This limitation of liability will not apply to damages awarded to a third party by a court of competent jurisdiction to the extent such damages were the direct result of bodily injury or death caused by a manufacturing or a design defect in the products.

(3) To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, our liability of any kind or nature, whether in contract (including fundamental breach), warranty, tort (including negligence) or otherwise, does not extend to, and we shall not be liable for, any consequential, special, indirect, or incidental losses or damages whether foreseeable or not.
