Are Tektiles safe for children?
Absolutely not. Tektiles are sculptures that are meant to be for display only, and must be handled carefully. They are not toys. Furthermore, some have sharp edges and small parts that are not safe for children.
What if it breaks?
Tektiles are covered by a 30-day warranty from any defects; simply send it back within 30 days of receiving for repair or replacement. Otherwise, Tektiles are pretty durable, and handled carefully, they will last forever. However, we understand that accidents can happen. Certain parts of the sculpture can be fragile and can break. Broken Tektiles from improper use can sometimes be repaired or augmented; simply send it back to us and we will have fun trying to fix it for you. Don’t hesitate to get in touch to tell us about your situation.
Where are the Tektile sculptures made?
The Tektiles project is based out of Montreal, Canada. CDs are collected in the local area, and the sculptures are made by hand and with the help of machines. Contact us if you'd like to arrange a local pickup.
