ResinIt – Terms and Conditions
Version 2.0 – March 2026
At ResinIt, every piece we create carries deep personal meaning. These Terms and Conditions are designed to provide clarity and protection for both you and our business throughout the preservation process.
By placing an order with ResinIt, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to the terms set out below.
1. Our Services
ResinIt provides bespoke resin preservation services, including:
-
Flower preservation
-
Ashes preservation jewellery and keepsakes
-
Memorial and decorative resin items
Each item is individually handcrafted. Due to the artistic nature of the process, every piece is unique.
2. Sending Flowers, Ashes & Inclusions
2.1 Flower Condition & Natural Changes
Flowers are organic materials and will naturally change during the drying process. Colours may deepen, lighten, fade, darken, or become translucent. Some flower varieties preserve better than others.
While professional techniques are used, exact colour retention and structural integrity cannot be guaranteed.
Customers are responsible for ensuring flowers are sent promptly and in suitable condition. ResinIt is not liable for deterioration prior to arrival.
2.2 Ashes & Inclusions
Ashes and inclusions must be securely packaged and clearly labelled with your name and order number.
Unless otherwise agreed, only a small portion of ashes will be used. Remaining ashes will be returned using appropriate packaging. Return postage is at the customer’s risk unless insured shipping is requested.
Customers are responsible for ensuring compliance with local and international regulations regarding the shipment and import of cremated remains. ResinIt does not provide legal advice on international import requirements.
2.3 Delivery to ResinIt
Customers are responsible for arranging and paying for delivery to our workshop. Tracked and insured postage is strongly recommended.
ResinIt is not liable for loss or damage before materials arrive at our premises.
3. The Preservation Process
Flowers are carefully dried using silica gel or other suitable methods before being cast in resin.
Resin curing is a multi-stage process and may take several days to weeks depending on size and complexity.
Estimated completion times are provided as guidance only and are not guaranteed.
Design preferences are welcomed and carefully considered. However, final artistic interpretation remains at the discretion of ResinIt.
If a significant production fault occurs, ResinIt reserves the right to repair or remake the item. Minor air bubbles, small surface variations, and natural resin characteristics are not considered faults.
4. Payment Terms
4.1 Booking Deposit
A non-refundable booking deposit may be required to secure your place in our production schedule.
4.2 Flower Preservation Payment Structure
For all flower preservation services:
-
50% of the total order value is payable upon receipt of the flowers at our premises.
-
Any deposit already paid will be deducted from this amount.
-
Work will not commence until this payment has been received.
An itemised invoice will be issued once flowers have safely arrived.
4.3 Final Payment
The remaining balance is due upon completion and must be paid in full before dispatch.
ResinIt reserves the right to withhold shipment until full payment has cleared.
If final payment is not received within 60 days of completion notification, ResinIt reserves the right to charge reasonable storage fees and/or dispose of the item after reasonable attempts to contact the customer.

7. Quality & Natural Characteristics
Each piece is handcrafted and will contain natural variations.
