Frequently Asked Questions

As a standard we send out orders with express air freight shipping, DAP, which takes from 3 days up.  Shipping times depend on country so please speak to your account manager if you need a clearer estimate of shipping times to your location. If you would like to discuss other shipping options please contact your account manager.

We distribute your products from our warehouses in Thailand, Netherlands and United States depending on your location.

We offer free express shipping on all orders over $2,000 USD. For orders under $2,000 USD the shipping costs will be shown, based on your location, at checkout. We work hard with our logistics partner to ensure we have the best possible rates for our customers.

Please contact orders@superbee.me

– No, import duties and VAT are not included in the cost of shipping. If the customs officer chooses to randomly charge your products, the import duty is 3-6 % as per our HS code: 6305.1.
– You may be additionally charged your country’s version of VAT/GST/MWST, which should be tax deductible when doing your tax return. Not all countries will charge this. The best thing to do is contact your local customs office, or work with a custom’s agent.
– We are not responsible for any extra storage charges and fees for late pick-up of shipments at their destination.
– If you are based in a country with strict import procedures we recommend you work with a local customs agent to speed up the process.

We do our best to pack all your orders securely so damaged items are very rare. However, if any of your products are damaged in transit please take photos of the box and any damage to the products and send them to orders@superbee.me. We will send you replacements as soon as possible. We need the photographs and precise number of damaged products for the insurance claim.

Your regional account manager will be happy to discuss any special requests with you.

Production times will depend on the size and complexity of your order, but we try to dispatch all smaller orders within 5 working days. If you need an order urgently please contact your regional account manager who will do their best to meet your deadlines.

You can pay by bank transfer, credit card or PayPal.

All orders should be paid for before they can be dispatched. If you have any questions about payment terms please contact your regional account manager.

We charge a 2.5% fee for any transactions made via PayPal but we do not charge for any other payment methods, so where possible we recommend paying via credit card or bank transfer.  We charge this fee because PayPal charges us 3 – 6%, plus currency conversion fees, depending on your country.  As their fees are so high we need to split them, with you, our customers. Thank you for your understanding.

Our Wax Wraps are handcrafted from GOTS certified cotton (organic and made in fair working conditions), locally sourced beeswax, organic coconut oil and tree resin.

Our Wax Wraps come in 6 convenient sizes, including one catering sized wrap.  Please note that as all Wraps are handmade there may be very slight variations in sizing:

Small – 20 x 20 cm (8 x 8 inches)
Medium – 26 x 26 cm (10 x 10 inches)
Large – 33 x 33 cm (13 x 13 inches)
XL – 30 x 50 cm (12 x 19 inches)
XXL – 40 x 50 cm (16 x 19 inches)
Catering – 55 x 70 cm (21 x 27 inches)

We hope our Wraps will fly off your shelves (once people try them they love them) but if necessary they can be stored in a cool dry space for up to 2 years.

We recommend that any Wraps that aren’t being displayed in your shop are stored in a cool dry place.

At SuperBee we are proud to say that we’re a single-use-plastic free company. We never use any plastic in our packaging (we use paper tape and card packing).

We offer bee-autiful shelf ready retail boxes which hold 20 of our individual Wax Wrap boxes (Beeginner Sets, Triple Packs, Sandwich and Big Daddy Wraps), or alternatively we offer hanging boxes for all our boxed products. By default we ship the retail boxes, but if you would like hanging boxes please request this in the order notes box during checkout

We offer packaging in a range of languages. Currently we have French, Dutch, German, Spanish and Japanese packaging but others are available by request. Please contact your regional account manager for language options.

Because of the high margins we offer to you, our wholesale partners, we are unable to accept the return of wholesale products. The shipping and bank fees do not make it viable. Our goal is to make sure our wholesale products are affordable and effective so you can help to get plastic alternatives out to the global market.
