Container Provision by Clients

Deliveries are made in tank cars, road tankers, barrels and canisters. Own vessels of the customer are to be delivered to our factory. These vessels must be in perfect, clean condition, sealable and approved to ADR / RID for the transport of “flammable liquids” (UN 1170 ETHANOL, 3, II). The risk of sending the alcohol is borne by the recipient as soon as the processed brandy has been handed over to him, the carrier or the person otherwise authorized to transport the goods.

Terms and Conditions for Loan Containers

As part of our business relationship, we provide you with loan containers. These remain our property and are provided solely for temporary use. We expressly draw your attention to the following terms and conditions:

1. Return Period

The loan containers provided must be returned to us independently and at your own expense within 30 days of the delivery date.

2. Default and Reminder

If the containers are not returned within this period, we reserve the right to issue a single reminder.

3. Invoicing for Non-Return

If the loan containers are not returned even after 100 days from the delivery date, we will automatically invoice them. Invoicing will be based on the current replacement value.

4. Condition of Containers

The loan containers may not be used for mixing and must be returned in proper, reusable condition. Damaged or unusable containers will also be invoiced. By accepting the loan containers, you acknowledge these terms and conditions as binding.

Tax-Free Purchase of Alcohol

In order to avoid alcohol tax reimbursement, the tax-exempt alcohol may only be used for the purpose stated on the exemption certificate.

When shipping under the tax suspension procedure, the attached transit document must be certified by the competent customs office and returned to the consignor within fourteen days – otherwise the alcohol tax will be charged.
