Conditions for the use of cable and rope drums
(Status 03/03)
§ 1 Subject matter of the contract
The drums referred to in this contract are standard cable and rope drums from size 04 up to and including size 28. Support
materials and drum lagging are not covered by this contract.
§ 2 Entry into the contract
A contractual relationship with the following conditions is created between Kabeltrommel GmbH & Co. Kommanditgesellschaft,
Cologne (hereinafter referred to as KTG) and the purchasers of cables or lines (hereinafter referred to as Purchaser) on the
purchase from a cable manufacturer or wholesaler of cables or lines on KTG-marked drums at the time of arrival of the drums at
the Purchaser or at the receiving point designated by the Purchaser.
§ 3 Rental
(1) For the renting of type < 07 drums KTG will charge no rental, subject to the condition that these are returned to KTG
within an appropriate time. If said drums are taken abroad, however, the respective selling price will be charged. Such
taking of the drums abroad is to be notifi ed to KTG.
(2) The following conditions apply to drums from size 07 up to and including size 28:
a) For a period of 6 months from the date on the delivery note of the respective supplier no rental will be charged. If the
drums are not returned within the 6 months or notifi ed as being free to KTG in writing or by telephone, KTG will charge
a drum rental. From the 7th month this will amount to 15 % of the selling price of the drums for each commenced
month.
b) For drums which are not returned or notified as being free, either in writing or by telephone, to KTG within a period of 12
months, the full selling price, excluding any form of warranty, will be charged instead of the rental. The drums remain
the property of KTG until the entire selling price has been paid. KTG is prepared to take back drums which are
returned after the above-mentioned time but within a period of three years. Insofar as such drums are in a due and
proper condition, KTG will refund 25 % of the selling price.
c) The charge will be billed in each case after return of the drums or notifi cation that they are free, but at the latest on
expiry of the rental period of 12 months. Value-added tax will be charged at the statutory rate at the time of invoicing.
Invoicing will take place exclusively on a Euro basis.
§ 4 Bearing of risk and liability by the Purchaser
The Purchaser bears the risk and is liable for all damage to drums from the time the contract commences up to takeover of
the drums by KTG in accordance with § 6, insofar as they were not purchased in accordance with § 3, (2) b.
§ 5 Warranty and Liability of KTG
(1) The warranty of KTG for the condition and usability of the drums delivered is restricted to the technical details listed overleaf
incl. the maximum loading capacity at the time of delivery to the purchaser. Any liability for invisible faults is excluded. KTG
bears no responsibility for maintenance or repair whatsoever for drums which have been delivered.
(2) The liability of KTG – for whatever legal reason – is limited to the relevant indemnity given by KTG’s liability insurance
which provides normal cover consisting of appropriate sums insured for personal injury and damage to property. Extended
liability is – as far as legally permissible – excluded. Liability for wilful actions is unaffected.
§ 6 Return transport of drums
(1) The Purchaser must continuously and immediately report all drums which have become free either in writing, by telephone
or internet to KTG in order to initiate return transport. Return transport will normally be carried out via KTG within 5
working days of receipt of notifi cation. After this period has expired the purchaser is requested by KTG to complain about
any non-collection. The purchaser must enable the return transport to be carried out in a reasonable manner by the haulage
company specifi ed by KTG, especially with respect to providing sufficient information at the time of notifi cation regarding the
location of the drums. If the purchaser is responsible for any cancellation or delay of the return transport subsequent to
notifi cation, he is liable for compensation of the interest due on the rental until the actual time of return. §3 section 2b applies
accordingly.
(2) The Purchaser must report all drums which have become free continuously and immediately in writing or by telephone to
KTG in order to initiate return transport, which will be arranged by KTG within an appropriate period.
(3) KTG will bear the freight costs for the return transport; the Purchaser/party giving notifi cation that the drums are free
will be responsible for loading or loading costs at the place of despatch.
(4) All costs incurred because of failure to undertake the return transport in accordance with instructions will be borne by
the Purchaser.
(5) If the Purchaser has taken drums abroad the Purchaser will arrange return transport at Purchaser’s expense.
§ 7 Payments
KTG invoices will be paid at the latest 14 days after receipt without deduction. In the event of late payment we shall charge – in
addition to reminder costs arising – interest of at least 5 % above the base lending rate of the European Central Bank or higher
costs incurred by us owing to interim fi nancing of the amount owed.
