Contract between producer
This paragraph is from the article in a contract entitled "Early termination"Company X is being supplied the Dolomite for manufacturing. The context reads:
Article 8 - Résiliation anticipée
"Outre le cas prévu à l’article 9.5, chacune des parties aura la faculté de mettre fin anticipativement au présent contrat de plein droit en cas d’inexécution fautive par l’autre partie (c’est-à-dire les Fournisseurs ou [Company X] de l’une de ses obligations essentielles trente jours après la notification par lettre recommandée avec accusé de réception d’une mise en demeure d’exécution restée sans effet."
For the final part of this paragraph I have translated the term as
"... 30 days after notification of a **formal notice of default**..."
Is there a more appropriate term to use here, and have I fully understood the meaning?

For "mise en demeure d'exécution", the term "default notice", is not bad, but is not spot on as the notice in question is actually about "exécution", thus about performance. In other words, this is not simply about formal notice that the default has been observed. It is a notice ordering X to give effect to ("to perform") one of the specific objects under the terms of the contract. Its object is to put the addressee on notice to perform one of his/her/its contractual obligations within a certain time limit, or else...!
I would consider describing this as an enforcement notice. (It's a bit like an injunction for specific performance). It is a standard part of the procedure in the chain along the road to termination and then an action for recovery.

: "A default notice is a formal letter sent to you by a lender or creditor if you are in arrears with your account..." here it's not only about money, it's also about late or non-delivery of goods or services

More specifically, it's ''exécution de ses obligations", which means to "carry out one's obligations" (with respect to the contract).
