Graine de Malice's Life-long Guarantee

The most effective way to combat the programmed obsolescence of products

Because we fight against programmed obsolescence and place our demand for quality and durability at the top of our list of priorities, we offer a Life-long Guarantee on all our non-consumable products.

Below you will find out how, and under what conditions, you can benefit from our Life-long Guarantee:​

UNE UTILISATION NORMALE DES PRODUITS

Cotton buds are made for your ears, bread bags are not suitable for carrying rubble during your construction works, and the natural textiles our products are made of should not be washed at inappropriate temperatures or soaked in bleach or any other fibre-destroying product... It goes without saying, right?

The Life-long Guarantee applies on condition that the product is used as described on the Graine de Malice website.​

OUR ENGAGEMENT

Graine de Malice's Life-long Guarantee is free and applies automatically to the purchase of any of our products.

Moreover, the guarantee is transmissible, so if you give one of our bread bags to a friend of yours, remember to explain to her that this product is unique and will accompany her during her whole life. And even when it is worn out, your friend will be able to benefit from Graine de Malice's Life-long Guarantee.​

HOWEVER,

The Life-long Guarantee only applies to natural persons, it does not cover the use of our products in a professional context. To take advantage of this guarantee as a professional, please contact us at the time of your purchase and we will adapt our offer to your request.​

HOW TO USE GRAINE DE MALICE'S LIFE-LONG GUARANTEE?

If you have any problems with any of our non-consumable products, we ask you to:
​1) Contact us by phone, e-mail or post
​2) Detail the problem as precisely as possible and if possible include photos or videos
​3) If the product can be recycled or repaired, we ask you to send us the product
​4) Finally, we will send you the repaired or replacement product

WHAT IS COVERED BY THE LIFE-LONG GUARANTEE

Graine de Malice's Life-long guarantee covers normal wear and tear of the product due to time and repetitive use, but also abnormal wear and tear of the product, such as seams coming loose and parts coming off.​

WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THE LIFE-LONG GUARANTEE
