Shipping

Order Processing Time

Orders are processed within 1-3 business days (Monday-Friday, excluding Chinese public holidays) after payment confirmation. Custom OEM/ODM orders require additional production lead time as specified in your quotation (typically 15-45 days depending on order size and complexity). You will receive a confirmation email with tracking information once your order has shipped.

Shipping Methods & Delivery Times

We partner with reputable international carriers including DHL, FedEx, UPS, TNT, and major ocean freight lines. Estimated delivery times below are from the date of dispatch (not order placement):

  • Express (DHL/FedEx/UPS): 3-7 business days to most major cities worldwide
  • Standard Air Freight: 7-15 business days for larger wholesale orders
  • Ocean Freight (FCL/LCL): 20-45 days for bulk container shipments
  • Domestic China: 2-5 business days via SF Express or EMS

Delivery times are estimates only and may be affected by customs clearance, weather, peak season volumes, or carrier disruptions. We are not responsible for delays once the package is in the carrier's network.

Shipping Costs

Shipping costs are calculated based on destination, weight, dimensions, and chosen service level. You can view the estimated shipping cost at checkout or request a freight quote before placing your wholesale order. General guidance:

  • Orders over USD $500 (retail) may qualify for discounted or free standard shipping depending on destination
  • Wholesale orders are quoted on a case-by-case basis (FOB Shenzhen, CIF, DDP, or EXW available)
  • Remote area surcharges may apply for certain destinations

Customs, Duties & Import Taxes

For international orders, the buyer is responsible for any import duties, VAT, GST, customs clearance fees, and other taxes imposed by the destination country. These charges are not included in the product price or shipping fee unless explicitly stated otherwise. Bioplasticomp is not responsible for packages held by customs due to unpaid duties. If you refuse a shipment due to customs charges, the original shipping cost and any return shipping fees will be deducted from your refund.

Order Tracking

Once your order ships, you will receive a tracking number via email. You can track your package on the carrier's website. If you have not received tracking information within 5 business days of order confirmation, please contact us at wells@bioplasticomp.com.

Shipping Restrictions

We currently ship to most countries worldwide. However, we cannot deliver to PO Boxes or freight forwarding addresses for wholesale orders (a physical business address is required). Certain products may have regional restrictions based on local regulations. We do not ship to countries subject to international sanctions.

Lost or Damaged Packages

If your package is lost in transit, please notify us within 30 days of the expected delivery date so we can initiate a carrier investigation. If your package arrives damaged:

  • Take photos of the damaged packaging and products before opening if possible
  • Contact us within 7 days of receipt at wells@bioplasticomp.com with your order number and photos
  • We will arrange a replacement, refund, or credit at our discretion after verifying the damage

All shipments are insured at no additional cost to you.
