We do our best to maintain accurate inventory records but the item is not guaranteed until you checkout. This is because the item could sell out if other customers place additional orders for the product before you check out.

Yes, GROSCHE is required by law to charge applicable sales tax in Canada. Tax is based on the destination of your order and nature of the product and will be calculated at the time of checkout. There is no tax on teas or coffees.

For U.S. customers, since we are a Canadian exporter, there is no sales tax on any products shipped by us from Canada to you in the USA.

For International orders, there are no applicable taxes.

Easy-peasey!

We design all our products in our design studio in Canada. We then work with our glass studios in Asia including Taiwan and China to manufacture them for us under our specifications.

Please note as a B Corp, we audit all of our factories for social and environmental compliance ourselves and also require third-party external verification and monitoring to our social and environmental standards. This is especially important as we are a certified B-Corporation. B-Corps are held to the highest standard for social and environmental standards.

Yes, all GROSCHE products are BPA-free and lead-free.

We would not want that gunk in our food strain, so we design all our products to be free from it.

We use borosilicate glass for almost all our glass products.

It’s favoured for its resistance to heat and thermal shock, making it the safest material available for teapots and coffee makers. Our borosilicate glass will never cloud or stain from use and is dishwasher-safe.

We do have a few of our other glass products which are made from lead free soda glass.

Yes, we sell replacement beakers, infusers and lids. If you can’t find what you’re looking for on our replacement part page, feel free to contact us directly and we will be happy to help you out.

You are not able to use a GROSCHE teapot on a stovetop. 

While borosilicate glass is indeed heatproof, we do not recommend using our teapots or french presses on the stovetop. Sometimes the hot teapots when placed on cold or wet surfaces can crack from extreme thermal shock. So its best not to risk it and not place our glass products on the stove.

Although borosilicate glass is dishwasher-safe, sometimes other items in the dishwasher can knock into and damage glass items. To avoid this, we recommend gently hand washing the items after use.

Always towel dry all metal items immediately. They are not intended for wet conditions.

More information regarding best cleaning practices can be found on product specific pages.

We do our best to produce products that can be recycled at their end of life in municipal recycling streams. 

However, if you have a product that cannot be accepted at the end of its life, please contact us to send us the product and we will be happy to recycle it through our facility’s segregated recycling program at its end of life. We offer full takeback at end of life for all our products and will separate and recycle all parts as appropriate.

We take products back that are new and unused, or unwanted gifts, or have minor packaging blemishes. 

From time to time we sell them as refurbished products at a discounted price. This process helps to extend the product’s life and keep waste out of landfills. Moreover, usable materials can benefit other users. All these products come with the same warranty as new products.
