General Terms and Conditions (GTC)
Preamble
Re-Cap Solutions UG (haftungsbeschränkt) develops innovative and sustainable closure systems for the packaging industry and in particular offers licenses to intellectual property rights, research and development services, engineering, testing and consulting, as well as related services.
1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (“GTC”) apply to all contracts between Re-Cap Solutions UG (haftungsbeschränkt) (“RE-CAP”) and its customers concerning:
- the granting of usage and license rights to closure systems developed or distributed by RE-CAP (in particular CanShield) for the beverage packaging industry,
- research, development, engineering, simulation, testing and prototyping services in connection with closure systems and packaging solutions,
- consulting and optimisation services regarding the use, integration and production of closure systems,
- pilot and production support at filling plants or industrial sites, and
- any other services directly related to the above.
1.2 These GTC apply exclusively to entrepreneurs (business customers) within the meaning of § 14 para. 1 German Civil Code (BGB), legal entities under public law and special funds under public law.
1.3 Any differing, conflicting or supplementary terms and conditions of the customer shall only become part of the contract if RE-CAP has expressly agreed to their applicability in writing.
1.4 In case of conflict between these GTC and an individual written contract, the provisions of the individual contract shall prevail, unless they conflict with mandatory statutory law.
2.1 Information on the RE-CAP website, in brochures, presentations, data sheets or other documents does not constitute a binding offer, but a non-binding invitation to the customer to submit an offer (invitatio ad offerendum).
2.2 A contract is concluded either
- by written offer of the customer and subsequent written order confirmation by RE-CAP, or
- by RE-CAP commencing performance following a written or documented request of the customer.
2.3 Any deviations from this procedure require written agreement.
3.1 The nature and scope of services (e.g. license scope, territories, volumes, development targets, milestones, test scope, documentation) result from the respective individual contract, written offer, specification, statement of work or similar documents.
3.2 RE-CAP may engage suitable and reliable subcontractors and vicarious agents to perform its services. RE-CAP remains responsible to the customer for proper performance of the contract.
3.3 Any statements regarding properties, performance and fields of application of closure systems shall only constitute a guarantee or warranted characteristic if expressly designated as such (“guarantee”, “warranty of quality”) in the individual contract and signed accordingly.
3.4 Unless expressly agreed otherwise, it is the customer’s responsibility to verify the suitability of the RE-CAP technology for the customer’s specific intended use.
4.1 The customer shall provide RE-CAP in due time, free of charge and without being requested, with all information, data, materials and approvals necessary for the performance of the services, in particular:
- all technical requirements and specifications,
- samples, reference materials or reference products,
- regulatory approvals, certificates or releases (e.g. food contact approvals, safety certifications),
- any necessary brand permissions or IP clearances of third parties,
- required access to production sites, laboratories or facilities.
The customer ensures that all information provided is accurate, complete and lawful.
4.2 If performance is delayed due to insufficient, defective or late cooperation, data, approvals or access provided by the customer, all agreed deadlines (milestones, delivery dates, acceptance dates) shall be extended by the duration of the delay plus a reasonable buffer period (usually 10 working days). The customer shall not be entitled to any damages or compensation due to such extensions.
4.3 Any additional costs resulting from missing or delayed cooperation (e.g. additional engineering time, re-planning, waiting times, additional travel) may be charged separately according to RE-CAP’s usual rates.
5.1 Brands, product designs, colours and trade dress of third parties shown on the website or in presentations are used solely for demonstration and concept purposes in order to visualise and explain the functionality and application of the closure systems developed by RE-CAP.
5.2 Unless expressly disclosed and agreed in writing, there is no commercial, corporate, licensing or similar relationship between RE-CAP and the brand owners or rights holders shown.
5.3 The customer acknowledges that such use is purely illustrative and does not imply any affiliation or endorsement by the respective rights holders.
6.1 All prices are quoted in euros (EUR) and are net prices, exclusive of statutory VAT, unless expressly agreed otherwise.
6.2 Services may be invoiced based on one or several of the following models (as agreed in the individual contract):
- license fees (one‑time, recurring, minimum license fees, revenue‑based or per‑unit fees),
- development and consulting fees based on daily or hourly rates or fixed prices,
- pilot and production support based on time and material,
- reimbursement of travel and out‑of‑pocket expenses.
6.3 Unless otherwise agreed, invoices are due for payment within 14 calendar days from the invoice date, without deduction.
6.4 In case of late payment, RE-CAP may charge statutory default interest and reasonable reminder fees, and may suspend further services until all due amounts are settled.
7.1 Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, all intellectual property rights, including in particular:
- patents and patent applications, utility models,
- registered and unregistered designs,
- trademarks and trade names,
- copyrights in drawings, 3D models, software, documents and other works,
- know‑how, trade and business secrets, technical data and similar rights,
in and to technologies, constructions, prototypes, samples and documentation developed or provided by RE-CAP shall remain the sole property of RE-CAP or its licensors.
7.2 The customer shall only receive the usage and license rights explicitly granted in the individual contract (e.g. non‑exclusive or exclusive manufacturing and distribution rights, limited to certain products, territories, volumes or customer groups). No further rights are granted.
7.3 The customer may not grant sublicenses, assign or otherwise transfer rights or disclose confidential technical know‑how to third parties without RE-CAP’s prior written consent.
7.4 If the parties intend to jointly own any IP resulting from a co‑development, a separate written agreement shall set out ownership share, exploitation rights and cost allocation. In the absence of such an agreement, all rights remain with RE-CAP.
8.1 If a third party asserts claims against the customer alleging that technology supplied or licensed by RE-CAP infringes third‑party IP rights, the customer shall promptly notify RE-CAP in writing and provide all relevant information and documents.
8.2 If, after evaluation, the claim appears justified and is attributable to RE-CAP’s technology, RE-CAP may, at its own expense and discretion:
- procure the right for the customer to continue to use the technology,
- modify or replace the technology so that it no longer infringes third‑party rights, or
- provide a suitable workaround solution acceptable for both parties.
8.3 RE-CAP shall not be liable for IP infringements caused by:
- use of the technology contrary to the contract,
- combination with other products or technologies not approved by RE-CAP,
- modifications made by the customer or third parties,
- use outside the agreed field of application or territory.
9.1 Both parties shall keep confidential all information disclosed in connection with the cooperation that is marked as confidential or is obviously confidential (in particular technical data, drawings, CAD models, processes, formulas, business and financial information, customer and market data) and shall not disclose such information to third parties.
9.2 This obligation shall continue for at least 5 years after the end of the contractual relationship. For trade secrets and know‑how, the obligation continues as long as such information constitutes a trade secret.
9.3 The confidentiality obligation does not apply to information that:
- was already publicly known at the time of disclosure,
- becomes publicly known without breach of these GTC,
- must be disclosed due to statutory obligations or official orders (in which case the other party shall be informed where legally possible).
10.1 RE-CAP provides development, engineering, testing and consulting services in accordance with the generally accepted state of the art in the field of closure systems and packaging technology and in accordance with the individual contract.
10.2 For prototypes, samples and test setups, the properties and performance agreed in the individual contract or technical specifications apply. Minor deviations that do not significantly affect functionality or usability do not constitute defects.
10.3 The statutory provisions on inspection and notification of defects under German commercial law (§§ 377, 381 German Commercial Code – HGB) apply. The customer must inspect deliverables without undue delay and notify any defects in writing without undue delay. Late notification leads to exclusion of warranty claims.
10.4 Unless otherwise agreed in the individual contract, the warranty period is 12 months from acceptance or delivery, whichever is later.
11.1 RE-CAP’s liability is unlimited in cases of: ,
- liability under the German Product Liability Act (ProdHaftG),
11.2 In cases of simple negligence in the breach of essential contractual obligations (cardinal duties), RE-CAP’s liability is limited to the typical, foreseeable damage and, in addition, capped at an amount equal to the registered share capital of Re-Cap Solutions UG (haftungsbeschränkt) as stated in the commercial register (HRB 306015) per damaging event and in total for all damage occurring during the term of the contract.
11.3 Essential contractual obligations (cardinal duties) are those whose fulfilment is necessary to achieve the purpose of the contract and on whose observance the customer regularly relies, such as:
- performance of agreed development and licensing services,
- protection of confidential information,
- fulfilment of agreed specifications.
11.4 In all other cases of simple negligence, RE-CAP’s liability is excluded, subject to mandatory statutory provisions.
11.5 RE-CAP shall not be liable for indirect or consequential damages, such as loss of profit, loss of production, loss of business opportunities or other pure economic loss, unless caused by intent, gross negligence or injury to life, body or health.
11.6 The above limitations of liability also apply in favour of RE-CAP’s legal representatives, employees and vicarious agents.

13.2 RE-CAP does not guarantee permanent availability of the website. Maintenance, updates, technical issues or external influences may lead to temporary downtime.
14.1 The term and termination rights result from the individual contract. Contracts usually end upon completion of the agreed services or upon expiry of the agreed term.
14.2 The right of either party to terminate the contract for good cause remains unaffected (e.g. material breach after warning and grace period, serious payment default, insolvency).
15.1 These GTC and all contracts between the parties are governed exclusively by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
15.2 The exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with these GTC and the contractual relationship shall, to the extent legally permissible, be Munich, Germany.
15.3 Amendments and supplements to the contract and these GTC must be made in writing. This also applies to any waiver of the written form requirement itself.
15.4 Should any provision of these GTC be or become invalid or unenforceable, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. The parties shall replace the invalid provision with a valid one that comes closest to the economic purpose of the invalid provision.
