Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about ordering, delivery, materials and downloads.
Standard UK delivery takes 3–5 working days from dispatch. Express delivery (1–2 working days) is available at checkout for an additional charge. We dispatch most in-stock items within 1–2 working days of ordering.
Custom orders and made-to-order items may take longer — we'll confirm an estimated dispatch date when you place your order.
We print primarily in PLA+ and PETG, which cover the vast majority of use cases. We also offer:
- ABS / ASA — for heat-resistant or outdoor parts
- TPU — flexible, rubber-like prints
- Matte PLA — for a smooth, paint-ready surface on decorative items
If you have a specific material requirement for a custom order, let us know on the quote form and we'll confirm availability.
We offer a 14-day returns policy on physical products in their original condition. If you're not happy with your order, contact us at hello@creative3dprints.co.uk within 14 days of receiving it and we'll arrange a return or replacement.
Please note: custom/bespoke orders and STL digital downloads are non-refundable once delivered, unless there is a fault with the product.
When you purchase an STL download, you'll receive a secure download link by email immediately after payment. The link is valid for 30 days and can be used up to 5 times.
STL files are for personal use only unless you have purchased a commercial licence. Please see our licence terms on the product page for full details.
