Making a Purchase

Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our products and add any items that you wish to buy into the shopping cart. After you have completed your selections, click on “Checkout” and you will be asked for a few details that are required to complete the order.

We accept card payments, including Visa and Mastercard. If you are shopping from outside the UK, just place your order and your card company will convert the transaction to your local currency.

We do not charge for any item until it is ready to ship. If you do not wish to pay online, please contact us to arrange payment by an alternative method.

If you have made a mistake in your order and are unable to correct it in the shopping cart, please contact us and we will correct it for you.

On receipt of your order, we will confirm that the order has been received. This does not indicate that the order has been accepted and a contract exists between us. We will indicate acceptance of your order, and hence a contract between us, when we despatch the order and send you an invoice. Cancellations will be accepted up to the point of despatch.

We reserve the right to amend prices or withdraw a product (temporarily or permanently) up to the point of despatch. In the case of a change in price, we will always contact you to obtain your acceptance of the new price before proceeding with the order.

Delivery and Handling

Prices are shown in Pounds Sterling net, exclusive of VAT and packed ex-works. Overseas orders are priced ex-works. Sales to EU member states that are not VAT exempt will be subject to VAT at current rates. At Endeavour Speciality Chemicals Ltd, we do our utmost to ensure our prices stay current but reserve the right to change prices without prior notice. Written price quotations, when requested, are valid for 30 days.

All orders are subject to a standard delivery charge which will be dependant on the non-hazardous/hazardous nature of the item and the delivery address. Delivery options will be available at the “Checkout” stage of your order.

Back Orders

If your item is not in stock, we will back order for you. You will always be emailed with the expected lead time and the option to cancel your order if you would rather not wait.

Tax Charges

For orders invoiced to the UK, VAT is added to the total order cost at the standard rate applicable at the time of invoice. Sales to destinations in EU member states that are not VAT exempt will also be subject to VAT at current rates. All other overseas sales are VAT free.

Credit Card Security

Credit card payments for orders placed on our website are handed by Protx Secure Online Payments using a secure and encrypted connection. The processing of your payment from your credit card is done by Protx and Endeavour Speciality Chemicals Ltd do not hold any credit card information.

Privacy Policy

Endeavour Speciality Chemicals Ltd do not disclose buyers' information to third parties other than when order details are processed as part of the order fulfilment. In this case, the third party will not disclose any of the details to any other third party. For further details, please see our Privacy Policy.

Return Policy

Your rights to return goods are protected under the EU Distance Selling Directive.

You are entitled to return any item in your order within 7 days of despatch for a refund. Inform us of the return by email or telephone, quoting the Invoice Number, and we will issue a Returns Number. Please quote the Returns Number on the returned package and in all correspondence. A “Returned Goods Fee” of 20% of the net value of the goods will be applied to cover administration costs. Your refund will be paid within 30 days of receipt of the returned goods subject to the clauses below.

You are responsible for the cost and the risk of loss or damage when returning the goods, so you should have adequate insurance to cover the value of the goods. You are also responsible for ensuring that the package meets all legislative requirements for the carriage of the goods, particularly any goods classified as hazardous as they are prohibited by post.

Any goods returned must be in the original container and unopened. This Returns Policy does not affect your rights when the goods are faulty.

These terms apply to your current order. We reserve the right to amend our terms and conditions at any time, so please check for any changes when placing future orders.

None of these terms and conditions affect your statutory rights nor diminish them in any way. If any term is held to be invalid under any applicable statute or rule of law, that term is automatically omitted from these terms to the minimum extent necessary to comply with the law and without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remainder.
