STERIS's electronic commerce websites constitute offers for the sale of products and the provision of services for your applicable STERIS product (the "Offer").

STERIS's "Terms and Conditions of Sale" govern your product orders for Healthcare Consumables. At STERIS Service Online, the "Service Terms and Conditions" govern your requests for service and our standard list rates shall apply, unless other contractual rates are applicable to you.

You shall be deemed to have accepted all of the applicable terms and conditions except those to which you have specifically objected. You are required to set forth each objection to the applicable terms and conditions in writing, signed and dated by you and delivered to us prior to or contemporaneous with your order or request.

Any terms proposed by you which are different from or additional to the applicable terms and conditions on our websites are hereby rejected unless specifically accepted by us in a separate document signed by both you and us, regardless of whether such other terms would materially alter the terms hereof. No course of dealing, custom or usage which is contrary to the applicable terms and conditions shall apply.
