You will receive an email as soon as your order is shipped.

If the carrier has a tracking system, a link will be provided to you to track the delivery in real time.

Products & Commitment

What materials are your Arkki products made of?

Arkki products are made from bio-sourced PLA, a plant-based material chosen for its resistance and low environmental impact.

An alternative to petroleum-based plastics, it is biodegradable under industrial composting conditions and does not emit toxic substances during its decomposition.

Its production also generates a reduced carbon footprint.

Are the vases and planters suitable for outdoor use?

Our vases and planters are designed for indoor use.

Bio-sourced PLA is not designed to withstand outdoor conditions such as prolonged humidity, temperature variations, or UV exposure.

Therefore, we recommend indoor use only.

Can vases and planters be put in the dishwasher?

We advise against using the dishwasher.

Bio-sourced PLA is sensitive to heat and could deform.
Hand cleaning with a soft, damp cloth is recommended.


Returns & Customer Service

What is your return and exchange policy?

You can return or exchange unused items in perfect condition within 7 days of receipt.

This policy applies to all our products, with the exception of plants, which cannot be returned or exchanged due to their perishable nature.

Please contact us via the contact form to initiate the procedure.
