Refund policy and terms of service

At Greenkraft, we believe in celebrating nature, craftsmanship, and the skills of artisan communities. Our products are thoughtfully handcrafted using natural, sustainable, and eco-friendly materials, including bamboo, banana fiber, jute, coir, water hyacinth, and other natural fibers. Every product reflects the individual craftsmanship, creativity, and traditional skills of the artisans involved in its creation.

This Return, Refund, Replacement, and Cancellation Policy ("Policy") governs purchases made through the Greenkraft website and applies to all customers purchasing products from us. This policy is intended to ensure transparency and provide a fair and convenient shopping experience to our customers.

Our products are handcrafted using natural materials and traditional production techniques. Therefore, minor variations may occur in the following characteristics:

· Color, shade, and natural tone of the material.

· Shape, size, dimensions, and weight.

· Weaving patterns, texture, and surface finish.

· Design details and overall appearance.

· Minor variations arising from the natural characteristics of the raw materials used.

Such variations are inherent characteristics of handmade and natural-fiber products and shall not, by themselves, be considered manufacturing defects.

We make every effort to ensure that the products delivered are consistent with their descriptions, specifications, and photographs displayed on our website.

Customers are requested to appreciate the unique characteristics of handcrafted products while placing their orders.
