Ordering & Shipping
Do you ship cold-chain? Yes — every order, regardless of size. Orders ship with insulated packaging and gel packs to maintain 2–8°C throughout transit. We do not offer an opt-out from cold-chain shipping because we believe it's non-negotiable for peptide integrity.
How long does shipping take? Orders placed before 2:00 PM local time ship same day. Standard delivery is 2–5 business days. Express options are available at checkout.
Do you ship internationally? We currently ship within the United States. International shipping is under development — join our mailing list for updates.
What's your return policy? Due to the nature of research compounds and cold-chain logistics, we cannot accept returns of opened product. If your order arrives damaged, degraded, or incorrect, contact us within 48 hours of delivery with photos and we will replace it at no cost.
