3. Tax
Expressprint reserves the right to charge the amount of sales tax payable whether or not included on the estimate or invoice.

4. Preliminary work
All work carried out, whether experimentally or otherwise, at customer’s request shall be chargeable.

5. Copy
Where any additional work of whatever nature is necessary as a result of copy supplied by a customer not being clear and/or legible, we shall be entitled to make additional charges on a time and materials basis to cover such additional work.

6. Proofs
Proofs of all work may be submitted for customer’s approval and Expressprint shall incur no liability for any errors not corrected by the customer in proofs so submitted. Additional charges shall be made for any additional proofs that are required as a result of alterations required by the customer. When style, type or layout is left to Expressprint’s discretion, any subsequent changes to such style, type or layout required by the customer shall be subject to additional charges on a time and materials basis.

8. Company imprint
Unless otherwise specifically requested in writing any work may carry the imprint which will be positioned at Expressprint discretion.

9. Delivery and payment
Turnaround is measured in Working Days, defined as days on which the clearing banks are open for normal business. For orders made on a Guaranteed Turnaround service (being orders guaranteed to be ready within a certain period (the “Guaranteed Period”)), delivery (as more particularly described in paragraph 9(b) below) will be made no later than 10pm on the last Working Day of the Guaranteed Period. Should we fail to deliver within the Guaranteed Period (see also paragraph 10 Variations in quantity), a service ‘credit’ will be awarded up to the value of the order in question (redeemable against future orders within 6 months of issue of the Credit in question) (the “Credit”). The customer will still be obliged to pay in full for the order in respect of which delivery was late, including any of the sums charged specifically for the provision of the Guaranteed Turnaround Service (“the Premium Charges”). In addition:

(a) These services rely on the customer not delaying the progress of the order in any way (which delays include but are not limited to the customer not returning proofs by the time specified by Expressprint or failing to make payment by the time such payment is due) (a “Customer Delay”). In the event of a Customer Delay the customer shall not be awarded a Credit and the customer shall still be obliged to pay the Premium Charges but Expressprint shall not be bound to deliver within the Guaranteed Period.

(b) Delivery of work by Expressprint shall be deemed to take place upon collection of the work by the customer (where the customer is obliged to collect the work) or (where Expressprint is obliged to deliver the work) actual delivery of the work to the customer by Expressprint. Where the customer is obliged to collect the work, customer’s failure to collect the work on the day on which Expressprint is contractually obliged to have it ready for collection shall be classed as a Customer Delay. Expressprint is obliged to deliver the work to the customer but the customer provides Expressprint with incomplete or incorrect delivery information or is not available to accept delivery, then provided that Expressprint has used reasonable endeavours to deliver the work to the customer, a failed delivery shall be classed as a Customer Delay.

(c) Unless otherwise specified the price quoted is for collection of the work by customer. A charge may be made to cover any extra costs involved for delivery to a different address.

(d) Should expedited delivery be agreed Expressprint shall be entitled to make additional charges on a time and materials basis to cover any overtime or any other additional costs involved, including without limitation, the cost of couriers or special delivery post.

(e) Should work be suspended at the request of or delayed through any default of the customer for a period of 30 days or more Expressprint shall then be entitled to payment for work already carried out, materials specially ordered and other additional costs including storage.

(f) Risk of loss or damage to work completed by Expressprint shall pass to the customer on delivery. Notwithstanding delivery and the passing of risk in the work to the customer, ownership of and title to the work shall not pass to the customer and shall be retained by Expressprint until has received payment in full in respect of the work.

(g) In the unlikely event that Expressprint deems it necessary to re-print work, the Guaranteed Period shall recommence from the time of confirmation to the customer of its agreement to reprint the work.

(h) In the event that delivery area is restricted access such as airport, sentosa, island, etc, a nominal fee of an addional fee of $25 will be charged. This means that if you check out with free delivery, you’ll need to pay an additional $25 (separately). If you made any payment amount such as $6.50, the amount of $25 will be charged on top of the paid delivery. Do note that delivery is very much dependent on the availability of services by the various provider.

(i) Delivery are outsourced to third parties courier services such as J&T, NinjaVan, Qxpress, Lalamove, GogoVan and TerChong Transport. Unless specifically requested by customer and agreed by us, we will appoint anyone of these courier. In the event of any damages by courier, you can report to us and we will raise the issue to the respective courier company for follow up. In no way that Expressprint will be held responsible for damages arises from courier.

10. Variations in quantity
Every endeavour will be made to deliver the correct quantity ordered. However some variation is inherent in the print process and it is understood and accepted as reasonable that minor variations are immaterial and that Expressprint shall have no liability in respect of such variations. For other variations Expressprint entire liability will be to award a Credit. The table below sets out the circumstances under which a Credit will be awarded: Quantities No Credit awarded Pro Rata Credit awarded 1.5x Pro Rata Credit awarded up to 1,000

Quantities No credit awarded Refund calculated on a pro rata basis Missing items replaced
25-100 Shortage of up to 5% Shortage of between 6% to 20% inclusive Shortage of 21% and over
101-1000 Shortage of up to 5% Shortage of between 6% to 7% inclusive Shortage of 8% and over
1001-5000 Shortage of up to 3% Shortage of between 4% to 7% inclusive Shortage of 8% and over
5001 & over Shortage of up to 2% Shortage of between 3% to 4% inclusive Shortage of 5% and over

* The Customer’s sole remedy in respect of shortages above these quantities (“Additional Shortages”) will be a re-print of the entire shortage quantity of the relevant work, to be undertaken by Expressprint within a reasonable period of time. The Customer shall not be entitled to a Credit in respect of an Additional Shortage.

11. Claims
Advice of damage, delay or partial loss of goods in transit or of non-delivery must be given in writing to Expressprint and the carrier within three clear days of delivery (or, in the case of non-delivery within 28 days of despatch of the goods) and any claim in respect thereof must be made in writing to Expressprint and the carrier within seven clear days of delivery (or, in the case of non-delivery, within 42 days of despatch). All other claims must be made in writing to Expressprint within 28 days of delivery. Expressprint shall not be liable in respect of any claim unless the aforementioned requirements have been complied with except in any particular case where the customer proves that (i) it was not possible to comply with the requirements and (ii) advice (where required) was given and the claim made as soon as reasonably possible.

12. Liability
Expressprint gives no warranties or guarantees or makes any representations as to the merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose of any completed work the subject of a customer’s order and all other warranties, conditions, guarantees or representations, whether express or implied, oral or in writing, except as expressly stated in these terms and conditions are hereby excluded. Expressprint shall not be liable for any loss arising from delay in transit not caused by Expressprint. Further, Expressprint shall not be liable for any indirect, special or consequential damages, loss of profits, economic loss, loss of goodwill or loss of anticipated savings or loss of data. The total aggregate liability of Expressprint in respect of any and all causes of action arising out of or in connection with the customer’s order and Expressprint’s performance of services pursuant to such order (whether for breach of contract, strict liability, tort (including, without limitation, negligence), misrepresentation or otherwise) shall (subject to the provisions of paragraph 10) be limited to the sums paid to Expressprint by the customer in respect of the order pursuant to which liability has arisen. Nothing in these terms and conditions shall be construed so as to limit or exclude liability which cannot be excluded or limited including for death or personal injury or liability in respect of fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

15. Materials supplied by the customer
(a) Expressprint may reject any paper, plates or other materials supplied or specified by the customer which it considers to be unsuitable. Additional cost incurred if materials are found to be unsuitable during production may be charged except that if the whole or any part of such additional cost could have been avoided but for unreasonable delay by Expressprint in ascertaining the unsuitability of the materials then that amount shall not be charged to the customer.

(b) Expressprint shall have no liability in respect of any work being of less than reasonably satisfactory quality as a result of defects in or the unsuitability of materials supplied or specified by the customer.

(c) Expressprint shall assume that quantities of materials supplied shall be adequate to cover normal spoilage accordingly if the quantities of materials supplied are not sufficient to cover normal spoilage (“an Insufficient Supply”) then shall have no liability for any shortfall in quantity to the extent that such shortfall arises as a result of such Insufficient Supply.

16. Credit terms
For invoices not settled within the agreed credit terms, Expressprint reserves the right to charge interest on the overdue debt at 2% above the MAYBANK base rate at the time and an administration fee to cover its debt recovery costs.

We will make every reasonable effort to achieve the best possible color reproduction on your project. However, please be aware that some variation in color and texture is inherent in the printing process.

Please note that we will not assume responsibility for any printing issues that may arise from a print file that does not comply with our artwork specifications, which can be found at https://www.expressprint.com.sg/knowledgebase/#artwork-specifications
