Placing an order
We strive to streamline the ordering process, making it effortlessly simple for you. In fact, you have the convenience of checking out directly on our website if you prefer. Here, you won't encounter any pushy sales tactics. Our prices are transparently displayed, and for more complex solutions, we can always share an approximate cost.
However, we recommend reaching out to our team for personalized guidance. Understanding your packaging needs and volume is crucial, as our extensive experience allows us to suggest the most suitable machinery.
Sending a sample to our offices is encouraged, enabling us to conduct rigorous accuracy and speed tests to ensure it aligns with our standards before proceeding with your order.
Transparency is integral to our ethos, exemplified by our clear invoicing process:
✓ 20% Upfront: This enables us to design your machine
✓ 20% Which enables us to commence manufacturing
✓ 50% Prior to delivery
✓ 10% Upon installation
Throughout this journey, we maintain open communication, providing regular updates and diligently working towards meeting your deadlines. However, the more lead time we have, the smoother the process unfolds.

Should the item(s) not work out, make sure to exchange for a preferred style or return for a refund. As a reminder, domestic return shipping is free.
