Common Questions

ORDERING
Is there a minimum order value?
In an effort to keep prices low, our company tries to maintain a minimum order level of 100.00 € for all customers. Complex orders of multiple products that are under 100.00 € in total may be canceled, returning to the purchaser (you) payment in full.
 
If I order a fabric quantity of 3 sqm (or more), do I get 3 sqm (in a single continuous piece) or 3 pieces of 1 square meter each?
If you order a quantity of 3 in your shopping cart, of course you will be sent one piece of 3 square meters of fabric and not 3 separate pieces of 1 square meter each.

All resins and hardeners are sealed tightly in plastic containers and placed in separate, impact and leak proof plastic casing.
