Exchanges and Returns

The following policy establishes the guidelines that Quimiconsult has established with respect to the warranty we offer on our products and services, as well as the requirements that must be met to make a return possible.
These Terms and Conditions of Sale are established for the products manufactured or supplied and services (collectively the "Products") provided by Química e Ingenieros Consultores SA de CV (the "Seller") to which you are placing an order, and sold to the Buyer (the "Buyer"; collectively the "Parties") described in the Safety Data Sheet, Purchase Order, Quote, Specifications, or annex of this document, as applicable (hereinafter the "Purchase Order"). Unless specifically indicated otherwise herein, the legal entity to which you are placing an order does not involve affiliates or subsidiaries of the Seller. The Seller operates the website www.quimiconsult.com (the "Website"). The Buyer is an individual or legal entity in Mexico, as applicable, duly identified in the corresponding Purchase Order. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, these Terms and Conditions of Sale represent the rights, obligations, and remedies available to the Parties in relation to any contract for the sale of goods or services by the Buyer.
These guidelines apply to all Quimiconsult customers

Warranty and Claims

Back to toparrow_downward
En Quimiconsult we have a firm commitment to the quality of the products we sell, backed by our suppliers, who are world-class manufacturers. We always respond in cases of quality or service issues.
We have a Quality Control and After-Sales Service department that will address the claim within 48 hours, with the objective of resolving the issue in the shortest time possible after receiving the written report.
However, we require your assistance to resolve any issues that arise by observing the following:
  1. All claims must be reported by phone to our customer service department, to the Sales Representative handling your account, or to After-Sales Service — as soon as the issue is identified and while the material is still being used, not after it has been consumed. We ask that you suspend your operation upon identifying the issue. The phone notification must be confirmed in writing, indicating the nature of the issue and the details of the product being claimed, including the remittance number and/or Quimiconsult invoice with which the material was delivered.
  2. Evidence of the consequences of the issue must be preserved in order to trace its origin and take the necessary corrective measures. We may also request that you retain a sample of the material for analysis in our quality laboratory.
It is the responsibility of the Commercial Executive to obtain this document with the requested signatures.
