Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the buyer validly avoided the CISG contract for fundamental breach due to the line’s insufficient output
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. A delivery producing only 52 bottles per minute instead of the agreed 180 bottles per minute constituted a fundamental breach, so avoidance under CISG Art. 49(1)(a) was justified.
Extrahierte Begründung
The court applied an objective Art. 25 CISG test and held that the buyer was substantially deprived of what it was entitled to expect. The defect was severe, could not be cured in reasonable time despite numerous repair attempts, and resale or use was unreasonable.
