1. Our Commitment to Satisfaction

ELabs Global stands firmly behind the craftsmanship, accuracy, and reliability of all laboratory apparatus, glassware, and scientific instruments we supply. If you are not completely satisfied with your order, our returns policy provides clear, hassle-free resolution steps.

2. Standard 30-Day Return Window

Unopened, standard catalog items in their original factory packaging with all instruction manuals, accessories, and calibration tags intact may be returned within 30 calendar days of delivery for exchange or refund.

3. Damaged in Transit & Fragile Glassware Protocol

Because laboratory equipment and borosilicate glassware are delicate, all shipments are fully insured. If any box arrives visibly damaged or items are broken in transit:

  • Take clear photos of the damaged shipping box and broken contents immediately.
  • Notify our support desk via email or phone within 7 business days of delivery.
  • We will promptly dispatch an expedited free replacement without waiting for lengthy carrier claims.

4. Defective Instruments & Warranty Claims

If an electronic instrument, digital balance, centrifuge, or sensor fails to operate correctly within its 1-year warranty period, our technical service team will troubleshoot, repair, or replace the unit under warranty at no additional cost.

5. Non-Returnable Items

For health, safety, and regulatory reasons, the following items are non-returnable once dispatched:

  • Custom-synthesized chemical reagents and opened biological stains/solutions.
  • Sterile plastic consumables whose inner seals or barrier bags have been breached.
  • Custom-engineered or bespoke fabricated laboratory apparatus built to unique client drawings.

6. Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) Process

Before returning any product, please contact our support team to receive an official RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) number and the designated warehouse address. Unauthorized returns cannot be accepted at receiving docks.

7. Refund Processing

Once the returned apparatus has been inspected by our quality assurance team (typically within 3-5 business days of receipt), refunds are processed directly to the original payment method or credited toward your institutional account balance.
