Shipping and logistics
Expansion kits are sensitive to temperature. To maintain their temperature and ensure optimal results during use, consumables are shipped with cool packs. It is not unusual for the cool packs to be warm when you receive them. For optimal results, you should immediately store your new kits at their correct temperatures.
We recommend that expansion kits should be stored between −20°C and −30°C until you are ready to use them. Kits are stable for up to 10 freeze/thaw cycles.
The delivery charges are calculated when a quote is raised or during checkout. Once an order is made, the delivery ID and delivery information can be tracked in the Store.
