All credit and charge card holders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorise payment to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery. We can only accept orders from holders of credit or debit cards registered at UK addresses.
​
Optical Quality
The toughening process will inevitably result in a product whose optical quality is lower than that of a panel from which it was produced.
​
Surface distortion is produced by a reduction in the surface flatness which can be seen particularly in reflection. This can be exacerbated when the glass used is surface coated (including post toughening coating i.e. back painting)
​
Industry Standard Tolerances
For tolerances on individual materials please contact the sales office on 0800 043 3034 BEFORE you place your order. Returns due to material supplied within normal manufacturing tolerances will not be accepted under any circumstances. Our standard cutting and machining tolerance is +/-2mm.
​
Colour Reproduction
Reproduction of colour online is as accurate as photographic and electronic processes will allow. Colours appear very differently from computer to computer, both on the screen and when printed with different printers. Colour charts when viewed on the Internet, can only give an approximate indication of the actual colour of the glass. Due to the variation in the manufacture of glass the colours as shown on the colour chart or sample cannot be guaranteed. The Company will use its reasonable endeavours to match as closely as possible the finished Product with the colour chart.
Certain glass types other than low-iron have a higher content of iron in them which causes a green effect that changes slightly the final colour of the colour coat.
​
Delivery of Supply-Only Goods
Fused Glass Design Limited delivers to addresses within the United Kingdom although for deliveries to non-mainland UK addresses and certain remote locations e.g. Scottish Isles, Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Northern Ireland, Scottish Highlands, Channel Islands there may be an additional delivery charge and slightly longer delivery lead time. We will advise if there are any additional carriage charges to your order once it has been received by us for processing. In these circumstances, you will not be bound to continue with your purchase, and will be asked to email us to confirm that you wish to proceed. Goods can be delivered either to most UK business or home addresses with a valid postcode. Your order will be delivered by Courier. A signature is required for all Courier deliveries. Upon receipt of your order you will be asked to sign for the goods received in good condition. If the package does not appear to be in good condition then please refuse the delivery.
