Types of shipments
You can choose between road transport or opt for 24-hour express air transport.
Road transport is free for orders over 89.99 EUR. (79,99€ depending on the country) Regardless of how much your order weighs, whether it is 5 kg or 50 kg.
NOW you can also decide if you prefer 24-HOUR EXPRESS AIR TRANSPORT. For this service we apply a small supplement depending on the actual weight of your order.

If your order does not reach €89.99 (€79.99 depending on the country), the shipping costs depend on the weight and the destination country of your order.
Both the shipping costs that we apply to you for orders less than the minimum quantity and the air shipping supplements, are calculated according to the weight of your order. In no case are you going to overpay.
