As soon as the client transfers the 50%, we start the production. The sooner the customer pays the deposit, the easier it is for us to avoid delays in delivery. If the customer does not pay the 50% deposit for the production within 14 days, we are obliged according to our terms and conditions to first issue a reminder, and then an invoice for "sample production contract".
These terms and conditions will be accepted and signed by both the client and the Zermatt Ceramics representative in the form of a "Sample Production Contract" at the initial meeting.
After the presentation of the prototypes, a quotation will be sent to you together with a production contract, on which the discussed details of the final ceramics (colour, clay, size, unit price, possible discounts, production time, collection, shipping) are recorded.
