We strive to ensure that our customers, including end clients, contractors, interior designers, architects, and manufacturers, have a seamless shopping experience. This Returns & Exchanges Policy outlines the circumstances under which replacement of products may be possible and the guidelines that govern the process.

Please read this policy carefully. By purchasing through BRIKFURN, you agree to comply with the terms and conditions set forth in this document. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us using the details provided at the end of this policy.

1. General Overview

At BRIKFURN, we do not accept product returns. However, we understand that certain situations may warrant a replacement. Replacement is only possible under specific conditions, as outlined below. Please note that all customers are required to ensure the safe return of the original product in its original packaging and condition before any replacement can be processed.

2. Scope of the Policy

This Returns & Exchanges Policy applies to all products listed on the BRIKFURN platform, whether you are a B2C (Business to Consumer) customer or a B2B (Business to Business) customer such as contractors, interior designers, architects, or manufacturers.

• B2C Customers: Individual buyers who purchase products for personal use.
• B2B Customers: Contractors, interior designers, architects, or manufacturers purchasing in bulk or for commercial projects.

3. No Returns Policy

3.1 Why We Don’t Accept Returns

Due to the nature of the home interiors and construction industry, as well as the custom and bulk nature of many of our products, BRIKFURN does not accept returns for the following reasons:

• Custom Orders: Many products sold through our platform are customized to the buyer's specifications. Customization could include size, material, design, and finishing options. Since these products are made-to-order, they cannot be resold to others.
• Bulk Purchases: For B2B clients, including contractors and manufacturers, bulk purchases are often directly related to specific projects, making returns impractical.
• Fragile and High-Value Items: Products such as tiles, fixtures, furniture, and hardware are often delicate or high in value, making it difficult to accept returns after they have left the manufacturer's or seller's premises.
• Transportation and Handling Costs: The costs involved in handling and shipping large, bulky, or fragile items make returns impractical from both a cost and logistical perspective.

4. Replacement Policy

In exceptional cases, offers a replacement of the product under specific conditions. These conditions are applicable to both B2C and B2B customers.
