Frequently Asked Questions

There might be a few reasons why we’re having trouble processing your order. Most of the time, the solution is to verify that all the details entered at checkout are correct, so there are no error messages. Then try again using a different browser if possible.

If you’re still experiencing some difficulties placing your order, here are some possible reasons:

1. Payment issues.

If your bank is declining the transaction, there will be an error message with the reason stated at the top of the checkout page. You might need to contact your bank to resolve this.

Using PayPal (you can checkout as a guest, so no PayPal account required) often helps if the transaction is declined.

If the card details entered the first time were incorrect, and retrying with correct details isn’t working, our suggestion would be to use a different browser or clear the cache of your current browser, and then try again.

2. Details haven’t been filled in correctly.

If a mandatory field hasn’t been filled in or the number of characters exceeds the limit, there will be an error message under the field that needs correcting.

3. The item might be out of stock.

If the pack you're trying to order is out of stock, there will be an error message at the top of the basket page, and we'll tell you about it in the Delivery section ('Sorry, we do not currently have enough stock to fulfill your order.')

You can check which packs are in stock by going back to the shop and refreshing the page. Make sure you’ve selected the correct country in the top right corner of the website, as stock availability can depend on your location.

If none of the above seems to solve the issue you’re experiencing, please take screenshots of the whole checkout page (or go to Print → Destination → Save as PDF), and email to our support superstars on [email protected], who will come to the rescue.

You will need to go back to the shop and make changes in the cart drop-down. 

If you want to cancel your order or edit the address, we’re normally able to do that if you notify us within 1 hour from placing your order. Any longer, drop us a line anyway, and we’ll try our best to figure something out.

We're unable to change order contents, but if you notify us within 1 hour, we'll be able to cancel your order and issue a refund, so you can place a new order.

If you'd like to make changes to your order, please email us on [email protected] (please state in the email subject that you want to cancel/change/edit your order) or reply to the order confirmation email.

Please enter your discount code into the coupon code box in the cart drop-down, this will pop up when you add items to your basket.

If you click on the discount code link you have (whether in an email or via an ad), the code will be automatically applied at checkout. You can also apply your code manually, by popping your code into the ‘Coupon Code’ box in the cart drop-down that shows when you add items to your basket.

During this difficult time, the safety of our customers and Sugru staff members worldwide is our highest priority.  As the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic unfolds, we are taking all necessary precautions to ensure everyone’s safety. 

We are closely monitoring updates in order to act quickly, and we continue to follow advice from the World Health Organisation as well as local authorities. 

Please note due to the impact of COVID-19, the delivery of your order may be delayed by up to 7 working days.

Store your unopened Sugru in a cool, dry place below 21ºC (70ºF). 

Pro tip: If you want your Sugru to last longer than the use-by-date, stick your unopened packs in the fridge. 😉

Yes, please see the use-by-date on your single-use packs of Sugru. If used within this date, the Sugru should work perfectly. Once you have used your pack, the Sugru will set into a durable and flexible silicone rubber that will last and last. 

If you stick your unopened packs of Sugru in the fridge, you can triple the number of months you have left to use them!

Sugru is pronounced ‘Sue-groo’. Jane, the inventor of Sugru, is Irish - and the word ‘Sugru’ is inspired by the Irish word for play :). When Jane was studying product design at the Royal College of Art in 2003, she had a creative epiphany. She realised that we don’t need more new stuff. We all have enough. She asked herself: what if, instead of buying new, everyone could easily adapt, improve, customise or repair the things they already have? Now a global community of over two million fixers and makers (aka Sugru-ers) are using the world’s first mouldable glue to do just that.

A: We’re open to all submissions – a winning application might be big or small, simple or complex, practical or wacky. It’s not an exact science, mainly because we love all fixes, makes and hacks :)

To win five of your favourite 8-Packs, here are a few things to get your project primed to hit the jackpot…

1. Great hacks deserve great photography!

A bright, clear and in-focus image that really shows off your handiwork will always catch our attention. It might be a close-up of the project on a plain background, or something that shows it off in its natural habitat.

Daylight shots are always a good place to start.

And a series of images is something we get really very excited about, especially if it shows a step-by-step and/or a before and after the process.

2. Share your story

Once you’ve taken the picture, tell us a bit about the project. What problem did you fix? What made Sugru so suitable for it? How did you apply it? Did it save you money, or time, or both? Or earn you a bit of love at work or at home? Hearing your stories is the best part of working at Sugru. So please, don’t spare us any of the details!

3. Pick your platform

You can send your snaps directly to us here or email them to our Customer Support Team at [email protected]. We also love it when you share your projects with your friends and our community on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram! Simply tag @sugru and use the hashtag #MySugruFix. 

One last thing - make sure you're receiving our awesome newsletter, as that’s where we announce the winners (we’ll email you too if you win). Subscribe to our newsletter here.

Good luck, we're rooting for ya!

We’re privileged to see our community of creative fixers and makers growing every day, thanks to people who believe in Sugru as much as we do. If you have a website or a blog and you’d like to help us reach even more people, email us at [email protected].
