FAQ Shipping

Warmer weather presents additional challenges. Especially when it comes to transporting food. Even if it does not need to be refrigerated during transport. We prefer to refrigerate our products to preserve the quality of the gelatine (collagen).

Therefore, during the warmer days (+20 C) we use 100% ECO-friendly cooling bags. These bags are reusable and fully recyclable. The packaging is made of kraft and is filled with water. When you want to throw away the cooling element, just cut open the bag and pour out the water. The cool packs cool for up to 30 hours.

DHL Vandaag is an external company. Therefore we cannot change the details of your order once it has been sent. If your order has not been processed yet, you can change or cancel it. This can be done by sending an email to contact@babsbonebroth.com before 9 am.

We work together with DHL Vandaag. Our products are dispatched for delivery on Tuesday and Friday within the Netherlands.

Our products are packed in glass and are vacuum sealed. Delivery is not refrigerated as our products are not sensitive to temperature variations during transport.

After receiving your order, please place the jars in the refrigerator. This guarantees the best quality of collagen. The gelatine can only form in the refrigerator. The ideal temperature for the optimum shelf life of food in the fridge is between 3 and 4 degrees.

Please note! Do not freeze full jars. The jars can explode or burst in the freezer! Babs is not responsible for damage caused by an incorrect storage method.

Our Broths can also be stored outside of a refrigerator for up to 4 weeks, so long as they are unopened and stored in a cool, dark place, it is safe to consume.
