Business to Business

Corium Designs are suppliers of catering equipment and supplies to commercial customers and all sales are considered a business to business contract.

Stock availability

We try as hard as possible to let you know the availability of an item on the website. However, there may be an occasion when a product is not available and this is not reflected on the site. If this is the case, we will get in touch with you as soon as possible to resolve the issue and discuss an alternative solution such as; when it will be back in stock, a similarly specced product or simply refund your order so that you can swiftly order the product elsewhere where the item may be in stock.

Suitability of the Goods

Goods are not supplied on a trial basis. It is your responsibility to ensure that the goods that you order are suitable for your requirements and the purpose for which you intend to use them before you place your order.

We take all reasonable care to ensure that all descriptions, details and specifications are accurate. However, all sizes, colours, dimensions and measurements should be treated as being approximate. Full detailed specifications and further advice are available on request.

Website information

We endeavour to make all the product information on this website as accurate as possible. However, you may find that the dimensions, colours and features may vary occasionally differ once the product has been delivered to you. While we make the utmost effort to make sure that the product image and description reflect the real product, there can be a difference for varying reasons such as product re-development and manufacturing methods. Corium Designs is not liable for any inaccuracies.

Warranties and Liability

If you come across any faults or issues with your product after you have purchased it, your first port of call should be the comprehensive user manuals that we provide. You can also contact the manufacturer directly or get in touch with us at Corium Designs

If your item requires a warranty call, please follow our warranty procedure detailed with your purchase.

In the event of a failure or breakdown of the goods supplied within the warranty period, you must inform us as soon as you become aware of the defect or failure and in any event before the expiry of the warranty period. Corium Designs will not accept responsibility for any defect or failure of the goods notified after the expiry of the warranty period whenever the defect or failure occurred.

We reserve the right to take a debit or credit card or other types of payment in advance of arranging a warranty service call. The payment will be refunded if the fault is covered by the manufacturer’s warranty but will be retained if the product fault or defect is not covered. Examples of exclusions include, but are not limited to; incorrect installation, damage, misuse or lack of maintenance including descaling and cleaning.

Corium Designs is not liable for any lost profits or business interruption that may have directly, indirectly or incidentally arisen from a faulty or defected unit. It is the customers’ responsibility to plan and prepare for such instances.

The Customer agrees that Corium Designs will not be liable for any losses or damage suffered by the Customer including but not limited to damage to neighbouring or connected items or premises, consequential loss, loss of business, business interruption or loss of time due to the use or purchase of the Goods by the Customer. Corium Designs will not be liable for any additional damage caused by the Customer’s failure to report a fault or defect in good time or failure to provide reasonable access to the Goods for repairs, service or engineer visits. Nothing in this agreement shall exclude Corium Designs statutory liability for injury or death.

Parts only warranty

A parts only warranty allows you to use your own sourced fully qualified engineer (at your own cost) to assess the problem. This must be followed by a full engineers report sent back to ourselves, which we will then forward onto the product manufacturer. Once approved by the manufacturer the parts required will be sent to your desired location. The manufacturer requests that the defective parts are to be sent back on the repair of the unit. Failure to send these defective parts back is unacceptable and will result in a full invoice for the replacement parts.

For equipment installed into a mobile catering unit, a non-mainland UK premises or an offshore site will invalidate the standard manufacturers’ warranty stated on our product pages within this website. In some instances, the manufacturers’ warranty may be limited to a parts only warranty. Please call our office for further information.

Back to base warranty

Customers must arrange for any faulty unit(s) to be returned to the manufacturer for repair when the items are covered by a back-to-base warranty. Please ensure that the item(s) are well packaged as neither Corium Designs nor the manufacturer will accept any responsibility for any loss or damage caused due to poor packaging when the item is in transit.

Please contact Corium Designs to obtain a returns number for your package from the manufacturer. You will need to complete our warranty request form, which requires your signature and an original invoice number.

Comments and Feedback

We love to hear your feedback and comments and we are very open to any suggestions you may have. Any comments or feedback that are submitted to Corium Designs will be dealt with as soon as possible. Please note that once submitted, it becomes part of Corium Designs property and will not be treated as confidential.

3rd party websites

To give you the greatest possible information about a product, we link to 3rd party websites throughout the site. However, Corium Designs is not responsible for and does not endorse the content that is published on these websites.

Contact for web queries

If you’d like any further clarification on the terms above, please feel free to email [email protected] or give Corium Designs a call on 020 3837 3540.

Delivery

We do as much as possible to ensure that products are delivered to you on time and that you will receive them by the estimated delivery date on the website. However, Corium Designs is not liable for any delays.

Delivery will be to kerbside only unless prior arrangements have been made. The delivery person/driver may at his/her discretion assist with delivering the goods to a location within the premises nominated by the customer, at the customers sole risk.

Deliveries take place between the hours of 8am-6pm Monday to Friday.

For large items, the chosen delivery address must be accessible by an 18-ton lorry, please contact Corium Designs if your site has any access restrictions. Failure to disclose such information may result in extra costs being incurred by a failed/aborted delivery.

When a product is delivered to you, the first thing you must do is inspect the goods for any damage. Failure to check the goods and document any damage with the driver will result in a claim for the damage being rejected. Signing unexamined is not acceptable. In the event that the driver will not wait for you to inspect the goods, please sign for as ‘Damaged’. Once signed as damaged, you must report the damage to Corium Designs in writing within 24 hours to make a claim. If an item has been installed this would deem the product being accepted by the customer and claims for damages may also be rejected.

The buyer must inspect the received goods immediately upon delivery for possible deviations with what has been agreed on. Any complaints regarding the delivered goods must be submitted to Corium Designs in writing within 24 hours of delivery. After the expiration of the terms, the delivery shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally accepted by the buyer.

Delivery does not include the removal of old units or disposal of packaging materials (pallet, wrapping etc…). Collection and disposal of old units can be selected on a number of our products, in such cases where this service has been requested you must ensure that the items have been unplugged, disconnected, emptied and made ready for collection outside of the premises. If the collection fails you will still be invoiced the full amount and further collection charges may apply should you wish to rearrange the collection and disposal.

We will charge a redelivery fee if no one is available on site to take delivery of the goods.

A 25% restocking fee of the value of the item will be charged if delivery fails due to any of the points above, or if the product is returned and is not faulty. Please note that once an order has been placed and despatched the restocking fee will still apply.

Please DO NOT book any fitters or installers of the equipment ordered until after the goods have been delivered and inspected by yourself. We will not take any responsibility for any costs incurred as a result of arranging this in advance of delivery.
