Terms & Conditions

Metal Finishing Co., Inc. and Diversified Services, Inc. wish to remind you of the following established practices of the metal finishing industry in processing your materials:

It is widely acknowledged that despite utilizing the most advanced scientific knowledge and the expertise of highly skilled professionals, inherent risks remain in the metal processing, inspection, and finishing industries. To ensure clarity and mutual understanding, we have outlined the following terms and conditions under which your materials will be accepted for processing. These terms and conditions take precedence over any other agreements unless explicitly stated otherwise and approved in writing by MFCO Upper Management. Additionally, the issuance of a purchase order (PO) to MFCO constitutes acceptance of these terms and conditions: 

1. Instructions, Inspection, and Material Specifications: Whenever we are given material with detailed instructions as to treatment, our responsibility shall end with the carrying out of those instructions. The type of material, heat treatment condition, tolerances, and specifications for processing shall be declared in writing prior to our processing. MFCO also provides inspection services, and responsibility for inspection and acceptance of the materials processed shall rest with the customer unless otherwise stated. 
2. Limited Liability: Our liability for any cause is limited to the cost of direct labor and material of the product directly damaged by our processing or three times our processing charges on such material, whichever is lesser. Charges for our services are based on this policy limiting our liability. No liability will be assumed for scrappage of 3 percent (this includes, but is not limited to, scrappage and/or loss for any reason that results in shipped quantity discrepancies). 
3. Extended Liability: Liability greater than that outlined in paragraph 2 will only be assumed by us when agreed to in writing. In such cases, a higher charge may be applied for our services. 
4. Inspection and Rejection: Parts, materials, etc., as processed by us shall be presumed satisfactory unless we are notified of damages, shortages, or other discrepancies within 10 working days of receipt. Rejected parts must be returned to us for rework. Further processing or assembly of rejected parts by you or any other party constitutes a waiver of any liability on our part. 
5. Salvage Operations: Where operations or processes performed by us involve "salvaging" (e.g., stripping coatings/plating or other rework not originated by us), the work is accepted on a "best effort" basis. No liability shall attach to us unless previously agreed upon in writing. 
6. Uncontrollable Variables: If the results of metal finishing operations are unsatisfactory due to metal imperfections, changes in material grade or composition, manufacturing/fabrication imperfections, or uses for which the operation was not reasonably designed, the customer must pay the contracted amount for the finishing operation performed. 
7. Payment Terms: 
8. Payment terms are 1% 10 days, Net 30. Balances over 45 days will result in an automatic system Credit Hold, delaying shipment of any in-house product. Orders on Credit Hold can only be released by the MFCO accounting department after satisfactory resolution of the past-due account. 
9. A 2% monthly interest charge will be applied to all balances 15 days past their due date. Any invoice uncontested 15 days past its due date will be deemed accepted, and full payment will be required. 
10. Credit card payments will incur a 3% processing fee.

1. Energy Surcharge: Energy prices significantly affect the costs associated with metal finishing. As market conditions fluctuate, MFCO will apply a 2% energy surcharge to all invoices. This surcharge may be adjusted or eliminated based on significant changes in market trends. 
2. FOB Origin: Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all shipments from MFCO are made FOB (Free On Board) origin. Title and risk of loss pass to the customer at the point of shipment. 

We trust you agree that these terms and conditions are realistic and reasonable. Acceptance of materials for processing is subject to these terms, enabling us to continue providing quality services at economical prices.
