1. Scope of Application

These General Terms and Conditions apply to all business relationships between ScrewIndustry Corporation ("Manufacturer") and its customers ("Purchasers"). They apply exclusively to business customers (B2B transactions).

The Purchaser's own terms and conditions shall not apply, even if we do not expressly object to them in individual cases. Even if we refer to a letter that contains or references the Purchaser's terms and conditions, this shall not constitute consent to the validity of those terms.

2. Offer and Conclusion of Contract

Our offers are subject to change and non-binding, unless expressly stated otherwise. This applies also if we have provided the Purchaser with catalogs, technical documentation (e.g., drawings, plans, calculations, DIN/ISO specifications), or other product descriptions—including in electronic form.

The order of the goods by the Purchaser shall be deemed to be a binding contractual offer. Unless otherwise stated in the order, we shall be entitled to accept this contractual offer within 14 days after its receipt by us.

3. Prices and Payment Conditions

Unless otherwise agreed in individual cases, our current prices at the time of the conclusion of the contract shall apply, ex-warehouse (EXW Istanbul), plus statutory VAT.

Payment Terms: Invoices are due and payable within 30 days of the invoice date without deduction. Upon expiry of the above payment period, the Purchaser shall be in default. During the default period, interest on the purchase price shall be charged at the applicable statutory default interest rate.

4. Delivery and Performance

Delivery shall be made EXW (Ex Works) from our warehouse in İkitelli, Istanbul, Turkey, unless otherwise agreed. The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods shall pass to the Purchaser at the latest upon handover. In the case of sale by delivery to a place other than the place of performance, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods as well as the risk of delay shall pass to the Purchaser upon delivery of the goods to the forwarding agent, the carrier, or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment.

5. Retention of Title

We retain title to the goods sold until full payment of all our present and future claims from the purchase contract and an ongoing business relationship (secured claims).

The Purchaser is obliged to treat the goods subject to retention of title with care. The Purchaser is entitled to resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. However, the Purchaser hereby assigns to us all claims in the amount of the final invoice amount (including VAT) of our claim that accrue to him from the resale against his customers or third parties.

6. Warranty and Defects

We manufacture according to DIN, ISO, ANSI, and other recognized international standards. Liability for defects is restricted to the correction of defects or the delivery of a defect-free item (subsequent performance).

Inspection and Notice of Defects: The Purchaser must inspect the goods immediately upon delivery. Obvious defects must be reported in writing within 7 days of delivery. Hidden defects must be reported immediately upon discovery.

7. Limitation of Liability

Unless otherwise provided in these GTC including the following provisions, we shall be liable in accordance with the relevant statutory provisions in the event that we, our legal representatives, or our vicarious agents are guilty of willful misconduct or gross negligence.

In cases of simple negligence, our liability shall be limited to foreseeable, typically occurring damages. This does not apply to liability for injury to life, body, or health.

8. Intellectual Property Rights

All intellectual property rights to technical drawings, specifications, CAD files, and other documents provided by us remain our property. Such documents may not be made available to third parties without our express written consent.

9. Data Protection

We process the Purchaser's personal data in accordance with applicable data protection laws, in particular the Turkish Personal Data Protection Law (KVKK). For details, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

10. Applicable Law and Jurisdiction

These GTC and the contractual relationship between us and the Purchaser shall be governed by the laws of the Republic of Turkey, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

If the Purchaser is a merchant as defined by the Turkish Commercial Code, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract shall be Istanbul, Turkey.
