🚚 Free UK standard delivery on all orders over £50. Standard UK delivery from £3.95. All orders dispatched from Newcastle upon Tyne via Royal Mail.

Processing & dispatch times

Most of our concrete planters, coasters and other pieces are made to order in our Newcastle studio. Please allow 1–3 working days for your piece to be made, quality-checked, and carefully packed before dispatch. You'll receive an email notification when your order is on its way.

We pack all orders by hand using protective materials — concrete is robust, but we take no chances with transit. Every piece leaves the studio well-protected.

Returns policy

We want you to be completely happy with your Croi Concrete purchase. Every piece is individually inspected before dispatch. If something isn't right, here's what to do:

Standard returns

Personalised & custom items

Personalised concrete pieces — items with names, dates, or custom inscriptions — are non-returnable unless they arrive faulty or damaged. Please check all personalisation details carefully before placing your order. Contact us before ordering if you're unsure about anything.

Damaged or incorrect items

If your order arrives damaged or we've sent the wrong item, please photograph the damage and contact us at hello@croiconcrete.co.uk within 48 hours of delivery. We will arrange a free replacement or full refund including return postage, at no cost to you. We take transit damage seriously and use your feedback to improve our packing.

Packaging & sustainability

All Croi Concrete orders are packed using recycled cardboard, kraft paper, and biodegradable void fill. We don't use single-use plastic in our packaging. Outer boxes are fully recyclable. Our aim is to get your piece to you safely without unnecessary waste.
