Placing my order

  1. Do I need to create a new account if I'm already a customer

    If you've already ordered from us, this is no longer necessary! Based on the existing data we have created a login for you, linked to the email address to which we communicated to you. Your order history can also be found in your account.

    Activate your account with the email address we already know and you will receive an automatic password. It's best to change this password as soon as possible to a password of your own choice.

    Do you also want login details for a new colleague or contact person within your company? Let us know, we can easily do this for you. If you have any questions or problems, please don't hesitate to contact us.

  2. How can I place an order?

    You can place your order very easily through our webshop. After completing the order you will receive an automatic confirmation by e-mail.

    You can create your own account where you can see previous orders and invoices and follow up on your order. In your account, you can also create a wish list which you can consult and change.
    However, if you prefer to place your order using your own order form, you can also forward it to orders@biopack.be.

    More information about about how our webshop works, you wil find here.

     

     

  3. Should I pay my order in advance?

    In case of a first order we always ask for a prepayment. You can pay immediately online -  find out more about our payment methods here. If you wish to pay by bank transfer, you can find all the details to make the payment in the automatic confirmation email you receive after placing your order.

    As of the second order and if your company has a VAT number, you can pay after receipt of the official invoice (after delivery), unless otherwise notified by our credit insurer.

    Government institutions do not have to pay in advance. Please contact us for more information.

  6. I want to place an order online, but I can't add anything to my shopping cart.
