About these terms
These terms cover two different things: using this website, and buying yarn from us. Please read section 3 carefully — nothing on this website is a binding offer to sell.
This website is operated by Perception Impex, a Detail still to be completed: ENTITY TYPE — sole proprietorship, partnership, or (Pvt) Limited registered in Pakistan under the name Detail still to be completed: REGISTERED LEGAL NAME, registration or NTN number Detail still to be completed: NTN / COMPANY REGISTRATION NUMBER, of Detail still to be completed: STREET ADDRESS, Detail still to be completed: AREA / TOWN, Karachi, Detail still to be completed: POSTAL CODE, Sindh, Pakistan.
By using this website you accept sections 2 to 4 and 11 to 16. Sections 5 to 10 apply if and when you buy yarn from us.
We sell to businesses. This website is not intended for consumers, and we do not accept consumer orders through it. If you are buying as an individual rather than for a business, please contact us before placing an order so we can tell you whether we can supply you and on what basis.
Using this website
You may view, download and print pages from this site for your own business use in evaluating us as a supplier. You may not republish our material, sell or licence it, or present it as your own.
You agree not to:
- use this site for anything unlawful, fraudulent, or harmful;
- submit false information through our forms, or apply for a position using someone else’s identity or documents;
- scrape, harvest, or systematically extract content or contact details from this site for marketing or resale;
- attempt to gain unauthorised access to this site or any system behind it, or interfere with its operation or security measures;
- send us anything containing malware, or use our forms to distribute unsolicited commercial messages.
We may withdraw or restrict access to this site, or to any part of it, without notice. We do not guarantee that this site will be available uninterrupted or error-free.
Website content is information, not an offer
Everything on this site — product descriptions, counts, blends, applications, capabilities, minimum quantities, indicative payment terms, and the market commentary in our guides — is published for general information. It is an invitation to discuss a requirement with us. It is not an offer capable of acceptance, and no contract comes into existence because you read it, submit a form, or send us a message.
Yarn is a commodity and its price moves. Any price, rate, lead time or availability we publish or mention is indicative only, valid at the moment it is given, and subject to confirmation at the time of order.
We take care to keep this site accurate, but we do not warrant that it is complete, current, or free from error. Product photography and logos are illustrative. Where anything on this site conflicts with a signed contract, quotation, or proforma invoice between us, that document prevails.
Enquiries, samples and quotations
When you submit an enquiry we use the details to prepare a response. How we handle that data is set out in our Privacy Policy.
Samples. We provide samples on request so you can verify count, blend and quality before ordering. A sample shows the general character of the yarn. It does not create a sale by sample, and minor variation between a sample and a bulk lot is inherent to spinning and is not on its own a defect. Where exact conformity to a sample matters, confirm that requirement with us in writing before the order is placed.
Quotations. A quotation is valid for the period stated in it or, if none is stated, for seven days, and may be withdrawn before you accept it. Quotations are based on the specification, quantity and delivery terms you give us; if those change, the price changes.
This website takes no payments. There is no checkout, no basket, and no card processing anywhere on this site, and we will never ask you to enter payment card details into it. Payment is arranged separately under the terms of a specific order. If you receive a message appearing to come from us asking you to pay into an unfamiliar account, stop and call us on +92-300-8209877 before sending anything.
How an order is formed
An order becomes binding only when all of the following have happened:
- you send us a purchase order or written confirmation against our quotation;
- we confirm our acceptance in writing, by order confirmation, proforma invoice, or sales contract; and
- any advance payment or payment instrument required by that confirmation is in place.
Our written confirmation, together with these terms, forms the whole agreement between us for that order. Your standard purchase-order terms do not apply unless we have accepted them in writing, even if your document says otherwise.
Our minimum order quantity is 500 Bags Per Month, though the practical minimum for a particular count or blend may be higher and is confirmed at quotation.
Once we have confirmed an order and committed it to a mill, it cannot be cancelled or amended without our written agreement. Where we agree, you are responsible for the costs we have already incurred, including any mill cancellation charge.
Specification, quality and tolerances
We supply yarn to the specification recorded in the order confirmation — fibre, blend ratio, count, ply, process, and any finish. Nothing more is promised. If a property matters to your end use, it must be written into the specification before the order is confirmed.
Yarn is manufactured within commercial tolerances for count, strength, evenness, moisture regain, and shade. Variation within the tolerances agreed for an order, or within normal mill practice where none are agreed, conforms to the contract. Shade variation between dye lots is inherent to dyed yarn; where consistent shade across a quantity matters, order it as a single lot and tell us so at the time.
We are a trading and sourcing house. We source from established spinning mills, we inspect and pass on the documentation and test data those mills issue, and we stand behind the claims process in our Returns, Claims & Refunds Policy. We do not manufacture the yarn, and we give no warranty beyond the specification agreed and the rights that apply by law.
You are responsible for satisfying yourself that the yarn you order is suitable for your process and your end product, and for any testing or approval your own customers require.
Prices, payment and late payment
Prices are those confirmed for the order, in the currency stated, and exclude taxes, duties, levies and bank charges unless the confirmation says otherwise. Where we quote on an Incoterms basis, the current Incoterms rules apply and the named term determines which costs each of us bears.
Credit terms of 30 / 60 / 90 Day Options are indicative and are offered at our discretion, subject to satisfactory trade references and to the terms of the specific order. We may require advance payment, a letter of credit, or another payment instrument.
You must pay in full by the due date, without set-off, deduction or counterclaim, and a quality claim does not entitle you to withhold payment on an unrelated invoice. If payment is late we may charge interest at the rate stated in the order confirmation or, if none is stated, at a reasonable commercial rate from the due date until payment; suspend further deliveries; and recover our costs of collection.
Title to the yarn stays with us until we receive payment in full. Risk passes as determined by the agreed Incoterm.
Delivery, shipping and export
Delivery dates are estimates given in good faith and based on the mill schedules available when we confirm the order. Time is not of the essence unless the order confirmation says so in writing. We will tell you promptly if a schedule slips.
Deliveries may be made in instalments. A problem with one instalment does not entitle you to treat the whole contract as repudiated.
Export control and sanctions. You confirm that you are not subject to trade sanctions or export restrictions that would prohibit us from supplying you, that you will not re-export our goods in breach of any applicable sanctions or export control law, and that the goods are not intended for any prohibited end use. We may refuse or cancel any order that we reasonably believe would breach those laws, without liability to you.
Force majeure. Neither of us is liable for failing to perform because of something outside our reasonable control — including mill breakdown, raw cotton shortage, strike, port congestion, vessel delay, embargo, sanctions, extreme weather, flood, fire, epidemic, war, civil unrest, or an act of government. If such an event continues for more than 60 days, either of us may cancel the affected part of the order, and we will refund sums you have paid for goods not delivered.
Claims, returns and refunds
Rejections, shortages, damage in transit, and quality claims are dealt with in our Returns, Claims & Refunds Policy, which forms part of these terms. It sets out the deadlines for raising a claim and what we need from you to investigate one. Please read it before you take delivery, because the deadlines are short.
Liability
Nothing in these terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded. The rest of this section is subject to that.
We are not liable to you for loss of profit, loss of production or downtime, loss of contracts, loss of anticipated savings, loss of goodwill or reputation, the cost of recalling or reworking your own products, or any indirect or consequential loss, however caused.
Our total liability arising out of or in connection with an order, whether in contract, tort including negligence, breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, is limited to the price you paid us for the goods giving rise to the claim.
As for this website, we provide it “as is”. We are not liable for any loss arising from your reliance on information published here, from the site being unavailable, or from anything you download from it. Please verify anything commercially important with us directly before acting on it.
These limits are a reasonable allocation of risk between two businesses, and are reflected in our prices.
Intellectual property
The content of this site — text, layout, design, code, photography, and the Perception Impex name and logo — belongs to us or is used with permission, and is protected by copyright and trade mark law. Nothing on this site transfers any of those rights to you.
All company names, logos and trade marks shown are the property of their respective owners and are displayed with permission to identify our supply and client relationships. Their display does not imply any endorsement, sponsorship, or affiliation beyond those relationships.
If you believe anything on this site infringes your rights, email info@perceptionimpex.com with the detail and we will investigate promptly and remove anything we should not be using.
Third-party links and services
This site links to third-party services, including WhatsApp, Google Mail, and the websites of companies we work with. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their content, availability, or the way they handle your data. Their own terms and privacy policies apply once you leave this site. Our Privacy Policy lists the third-party services this site actually loads.
Confidentiality
Each of us will keep confidential the commercial information the other discloses in the course of quoting or supplying — pricing, mill sources, specifications, volumes, and customer details — and will use it only for the purpose of the trade between us. This does not apply to information that is public through no fault of the receiving party, that was already lawfully held, or that must be disclosed by law, a court, or a regulator. It continues for three years after the last order between us.
Career applications
Submitting an application through our careers page creates no employment relationship and no obligation on us to interview, respond, or make an offer. You confirm that the information and documents you submit are true, are yours to submit, and do not breach any obligation you owe to a current or former employer. We may verify what you tell us, including your academic record and identity. How we handle application data, including your CV, is set out in our Privacy Policy.
General
Changes. We may update these terms. The version published when your order is confirmed is the version that governs that order; changes are not retrospective. Continuing to use the website after a change means you accept the updated website terms.
Assignment. You may not assign or transfer your rights under an order without our written consent. We may assign ours to a successor of our business.
Severance. If a court finds any provision unenforceable, the rest stays in force and that provision applies to the fullest extent it lawfully can.
No waiver. If we do not insist on a right, or delay in enforcing it, that is not a waiver of it.
Third parties. Only you and we may enforce these terms. No one else acquires rights under them.
Entire agreement. These terms and our written order confirmation are the entire agreement between us on their subject matter, and replace any earlier discussion, quotation, or representation, except that nothing excludes liability for fraudulent misrepresentation.
Governing law and disputes
These terms, and any dispute arising out of them or out of any order, are governed by the laws of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. Both of us submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Karachi, Pakistan.
The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
Before starting proceedings, please raise the dispute with us in writing at info@perceptionimpex.com and give us 30 days to resolve it. Most problems in this trade are settled faster by a conversation between the two businesses than by a court.
Where an order confirmation or signed contract between us specifies a different governing law, forum, or arbitration procedure, that document prevails over this section for that order.
