Corporate Orders Terms and Conditions

These terms apply exclusively to orders placed on behalf of a business. By placing an order on behalf of a business, you confirm that you have the authority to bind that business to these terms. These terms, along with all documents expressly referred to within them, constitute the entire agreement between us and you. They supersede any prior agreements, statements, or representations (oral or written) related to its subject matter. You confirm that you do not rely on any representation or warranty not expressly stated in these terms. Neither party will have any claim for misrepresentation based on statements not set out in these terms, except in cases of fraudulent misrepresentation.

• 1.3. may be temporarily paused until sufficient proof of business is provided.

2. Use of Products

• Our products are supplied for your business's internal use only. You agree not to resell them. We make no warranties or representations about the suitability of the products for your specific purposes unless expressly stated. Any implied conditions or warranties under statute or common law are excluded to the extent permitted by law.

4. Payment Terms

• Payment in full is required at the point of booking to confirm your order.

5. Delivery and Cancellations

• 5.2. A suitable courier will be chosen after your order is confirmed dependent on size of order, date of delivery and location.
• 5.3. Additional costs may apply where delivery to multiple addresses is requested.
• 5.4. If we fail to deliver your order by the agreed delivery date, you have the right to cancel your order immediately if:
• 1. We have refused to deliver the goods; or
  2. Delivery within the agreed timeframe was essential (considering all relevant circumstances); and you informed us before the contract was made that on-time delivery was essential.
• 5.5. If you do not wish to cancel immediately or do not have the right to do so under the conditions above, you may set a new, reasonable deadline for delivery. If we fail to meet this new deadline, you may then cancel your order.
• If you cancel due to late delivery:
• • You may cancel either the entire order or just the affected items, unless separating the goods would significantly reduce their value.
• • If you have already received any goods, you must return them to us, and we will cover the reasonable return costs. We will require proof of returned products, including courier tracking details and receipts.
• • Once your order is cancelled, we will refund all payments made for the cancelled goods, including any delivery charges.
• 5.6. For cancellations due to late delivery, refunds will only cover the undelivered portion of the order.

6. Orders and Amendments

• 6.1. Corporate orders can be placed directly online through your account, with any applicable large-order discounts automatically applied.
• 6.2 For orders placed via our customer service team, once product selection, quantity, and any requested personalization or customization have been confirmed, you will receive a payment link. Your order will be held for 24 hours, after which it will be released if payment is not received. Please note that stock availability cannot be guaranteed once the order is released.
• 6.3. Once an order has been placed and confirmed, we cannot amend it.

• 7.4. All refunds on corporate orders will be limited to the value of the product.
